An ingrown toenail is a very common foot problem. One of its first signs is the inflammation of the surrounding skin but could quickly deteriorate into a more serious situation if an infection sets in.
An ingrown toenail refers to a situation of the toenail where the nail curves inward to exert pressure on the adjacent skin or nail bed so much that it ends up being embedded in it. This embedment of the toenail in the surrounding skin results in the inflammation, hardness, and tenderness of the surrounding skin. Skin redness, bleeding, as well as pus are symptoms of an infected ingrown toenail.
It is imperative to treat an ingrown toenail as early as possible to ensure an infection does not set in. This way, it can be easily managed at home. In critical cases, partial or total removal of the toenail may be inevitable. There are nail tools and treatments used in the treatment of an ingrown toenail, both home, and surgical treatments. Before looking at the tools, let’s look briefly into some of the risk factors of an ingrown toenail.
Risk factors of an ingrown toenail
· Ill-fitted footwear: tight shoes and socks will cramp the toes together hence pushing the nail against the surrounding skin which if continued long enough will ultimately cause the nail to grow into the skin.
· Wrong nail cutting style: curving the nail or cutting it too short will both encourage the nail to curve inward rather than it growing straight.
· Injury: dropping a heavy object on the toes or hitting the toes against a hard object are leading injuries suffered by the toenail. These injuries could force the nail into awkward positions such as curving into the surrounding skin or nail bed.
· Congenital abnormalities: small nail bed and awkwardly shaped toenails are some of the congenital causes of an ingrown toenail.
· Poor posture: sitting, standing, or walking in ways that position the toenails awkwardly against the surrounding skin will encourage the nails to grow into the skin.
Other risk factors include underlying health issues and genetic predisposition.
Ingrown Toenail Tools
The tools used in the correction and treatment of an ingrown toenail include the following:
Toenail clipper
Toenail clipper is used to trim the curved toenail, especially the visible part. This must be done carefully and you should not cut into the skin. Cutting the visible edges of the toenail helps to reduce the pressure and pain. Before clipping the toenail, soak it in a mixture of warm water and salt for about 25 minutes. This will help to soften the nail and the surrounding skin. Softening the nail and surrounding skin is always the first step when treating toenail fungus.
Toenail file
Files are used to scrape off more nail and dead skin cells.
Cuticle stick
Cuticle sticks are used to redirect a toenail particularly if it has not grown into the surrounding skin.
Cotton ball
Cotton is used to gently push the adjacent skin of the nail away and to gently lift the toenail.
Dental floss
Dental floss is placed beneath the toenail after gently lifting it to ensure it grows upward and straight.
Tweezers
Tweezers are used to push a piece of cotton beneath the ingrown toenail hence pushing the nail away from the skin.
Toe Braces
Toenail braces are designed to correct ingrown toenails especially those caused by an abnormal growth of the nail. They are primarily made for the big toe but can be very well adapted to treat other toenails as well as fingernails.
Toe braces work like a spring; they gently pull the nail away from the adjacent skin so that the nail can grow off the skin.
Laser
One of the latest and effective ways of treating an ingrown toenail is the use of a laser or chemical procedure to permanently get rid of a part of the nail bed.
Disinfection of ingrown toenail tools
All toenail tools must be properly disinfected to ensure you do not introduce infection into the ingrown toenail by yourself. Alcohol and hydrogen peroxide are very effective disinfectants.
Note: maintaining proper foot and nail care is fundamental to the prevention and treatment of an ingrown toenail. Eat diets and do things that strengthen the toenails. Desist from risk factors such as ill-fitting shoes, excessive cutting of the nail, and exposure to injury.
Conclusion
If an ingrown toenail is not treated promptly, serious consequences may follow. Treatment should be resumed even before an infection sets in. All the tools discussed above play key roles in the successful treatment of an ingrown toenail.
Emma Stone has great taste — on and off-screen. Whether she is working the red carpet, winning an Oscar, or announcing her engagement via Instagram, she continues to show off her distinctive personal style. Prime example: she’s rocking one of the most unique engagement rings around. But there is nothing she does better than an award-winning look at the biggest shows of the season. Read on to examine some of her best.

Stone wowed everybody at the 2019 Producers Guild Awards in this butter yellow gown and unique gold choker necklace. She serves as the face of Louis Vuitton, so it’s no surprise she chose to rock a custom-made dress from the luxury French fashion house. With the long sleeves, knot detailing, and leg slit, this dress really sets her apart from the rest of the attendees. She paired the dress with an edgy asymmetrical updo and bronze glowy makeup.

Emma Stone is no stranger to the fact that nude pink looks amazing against her copper locks. For the 2019 Golden Globes, Stone stepped out in a pale pink and silver beaded dress by Louis Vuitton for the red carpet. The dress, comprised of 63,000 twisted glass tubes, took over 800 hours to make. The beads were draped in a way that resembled fish scales. She completed the look with soft makeup, loose waves, and a cylinder bag — plus a bow nodding to the Times Up movement.

While Emma Stone is often seen rocking Louis Vuitton — after all, she is the face of the brand — the dress she debuted at the 2019 Annual Academy Awards was nothing like we’ve ever seen from her. She stole the show in this rich and shimmery chocolate brown Louis Vuitton gown. Stone kept the rest of the look simple, styling her chestnut brown hair in a slicked-back updo and her jewelry to a minimum.

We are seeing stars from this look Stone wore at the 2017 Golden Globe Awards. She donned an embellished nude Valentino gown that was covered in metallic stars. The look was styled by Petra Flannery and completed with a platinum and diamond lariat necklace from Tiffany & Co. The feminine yet quirky label finished the dress off with a dramatic back. Stone continues to surprise on the red carpet while still keeping things elegant and understated.

Emma Stone rivaled a black pearl at the Met Gala with this sparkly jumpsuit by none other than Louis Vuitton. While we often see Stone wearing impeccable gowns by the French luxury house, this edgy look feels different. From the geometric belt to the padded shoulders to the blue and magenta makeup look, we are seeing tons of ‘80s inspiration. She completed the ensemble with natural waves, copper metallic pumps, and pearl drop earrings.
Year after year, Emma Stone continues to kill it on the red carpet. From daring colors to embellished ball gowns to metallic jumpsuits, which look was your favorite?
Fashion Bombshell of the week goes to wardrobe consultant and personal stylist Michelle @styledbymeesh, from California. Check her out below.
She writes, “I would categorize my style to be based on my mood for the day. Some days I prefer comfort while other days I prefer to be edgy. I don’t think clothes define you, but rather YOU define them which is why I love fashion.“

The world is rapidly evolving, and so is everything that resides in it. The trade network of the world today is no exception to this evolution. With the rise in internet users, online shopping industry has definitely exploded, leaving brick and mortar stores fighting to keep up with the loss of sales. As much as we dislike splurging, it happens. You can’t blame yourself as technology has made our bank accounts exposed to e-commerce sites. However, nothing beats the feel to touch or smell your possible purchase on ground – it’s a constant battle between the two systems. Here’s a list of 7 reasons that prove why online shopping is way better when compared to offline shopping.
COST-EFFECTIVE
Now, let’s talk money and how much you spend or save when shopping online or offline. Products present in online portals usually tend to be cheaper when compared to the physical stores and supermarkets. On the other hand, in an attempt to entice more consumers to purchase their products, sellers tend to give out more discount deals and coupon codes and even hold occasional flash sales which are only accessible for online shopping. There are also various stores like Urban Outfitters which do this job effectively. Even few sites provide further discount on purchases from their mobile apps .This is when online shopping will benefit your wallet because it is hard to find deals like these offline.
SAVES TIME & ENERGY
This is the most vital reason behind the enhancement of e-commerce market. In online, you don’t require travelling to the shops to buy what you want and your valuable energy will not be squandered. You can easily browse through various online portals and e-commerce stores having numerous retailers to choose whatever you desire within the shortest possible time. You can even shop from multiple stores simultaneously. With just a few taps on the screen, the shopping list will be at your doorstep.
NO TRANSPORT EXPENSES
Everybody truly desires to skip out on paying for gas each time they need to shop! If you reside far away from shopping zones you really need to spend quite a bit of gas to reach there. But through online shopping you never meet up any transport expenses. You simply order what you want and place the delivery to a specific location anywhere across the globe. It’s also convenient to send goods to distant locations. Some websites even offer scheduled delivery.
24/7 SHOPPING
Maximum numbers of stores are open only during the daytime. In such cases, online shopping would come become your saviour. We can’t miss the truth that an online portal can work around the clock. Online shopping stores are accessible for 24/7 services and thereby, certainly you can shop from these stores at any suitable time.
AVOIDING QUEUES & CROWDS
Standing in queues and crowded stores is really frustrating and unpleasant! Isn’t it? Unfortunately, it’s not possible for you to avoid queues and crowds while shopping offline. But when you go online, there is no panic of bumping into a crowd or having to join a long queue. You just got to add what you wish to purchase into your cart and directly proceed towards the checkout. Therefore, shopping becomes less stressful and turns into smoother experience for you.
DIVERSITY OF PRODUCTS & COMPARISON IS EASY
One more thing people enjoy when they go shopping is an enormous selection. Again, the Internet has the advantage here, as the variety in online portals is practically infinite. Multiple filters are also provided online for your comfort when compared to offline stores. The sky’s the limit online. It renders you the liberty to compare the products on various e-commerce stores and freedom to purchase the items at the most affordable rates. A person can also check reviews of the items posted by other people before buying and find out about the quality from their experience.
A BIGGER MARKET
A small enterprise cannot expect to enter the global market by having traditional physical stores. However, that can be achieved through the internet. A good number of people all across the globe have internet access, and maximum of them shop at websites. Online marketplaces are extending edges continuously and keep on evolving. You can therefore target the whole of this mammoth global market with your online store.
FINAL WORDS!
Some may debate that online has their hearts, while others argue on how offline is a much better option. To conclude, users expect both experiences to be equally delightful, and businesses require catering to both worlds. The most successful businesses will be those who effectively entice visitors to both systems equally.All in all, online and offline shopping are both here to stay.
Fashion designer/creative director Anifa Mvuemba unleashed her Pink Label Congo Virtual collection in the middle of Quarantine as a way to blaze a trail for contemporary fashion while also spreading awareness about illegal mining of the mineral Coltan in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Not familiar with Coltan? It’s a mineral found in electronics such as smartphones and laptop–electronics that we use on a everyday basis. 60-70% of this essential mineral is found in the Congo. Last night, Mvuemba shined a light on the forced labor, abuse of women and children, and extortion linked to Coltan mining. Through #PinkLabelCongo, Hanifa sought to enlighten, contribute, and ultimately empower those working under adverse conditions through fashion.
While most of the pieces were signature Hanifa fare: fantastically constructed bodycon dress and jumpsuits, pleated dresses, and ruched separates in a subdued color palette of white and blue, Mvuemba also incorporated colors of the Congo flag: red, which symbolizes pain, blue, which illustrates peace, and yellow, which stands for hope.
As we continue to contemplate the future of fashion in the age of Covid-19, Hanifa has provided a glimpse with an innovative show with a purpose.
