Quick question about corns/calluses

Please forgive me if a similar thread already exists; I don't wish to clutter the forum by starting a new one, so please feel free to move this wherever you see fit.
Essentially, about a year ago, I developed an ingrown toenail on my big toe. It began quite modestly, almost unnoticeably, but eventually grew into a significant issue that caused me considerable pain. Now that I have finally managed to find the time to visit a medical podiatrist, 😕 the skin simply shed on its own without any intervention whatsoever—much like a dry scab peeling away to reveal fresh skin and a tiny scar underneath. Is such a spontaneous recovery actually possible?
I haven't applied any treatments or ointments to the area. My main concern is whether I should expect this to recur in the future.

It’s entirely possible. It won't show up. Just let the wound heal on its own.

And honestly, there's no need to go wasting money at a nail salon when you can just grab some effective bandages from the local CVS.

fadedmarlin402 said:It is certainly possible. It won't resurface if you simply allow the wound enough time to heal properly.

Furthermore, there is really no need to bother with a professional pedicure when highly effective medicated bandages are readily available at any local CVS.

Thank you, 😘
