What is the relationship between your ingrown toenail and your problems?

Ingrown toenails occur in both toenails and fingernails. This problem happens when the nail grows into the skin of one of your fingers, causing pain, swelling and/or redness around it.

Numerous factors can result in an ingrown toenail. The most common are tight shoes and curved, poorly cut nails.

The ingrown toenail can occur when the fingers are subjected to strong pressure and, in some cases, deformities in the fingers and nails also cause this problem. In her book, Cristina Cairo states that the Excessive worries and fear of making mistakes are the most common causative agents for ingrown toenails according to psychoanalysis.



One stuck according to Cristina Cairo:

It symbolizes tension and excessive concerns about one's individuality and a great need for security within the working or family environment. It indicates someone who doesn't want to show weaknesses and feels angry for not being understood and who, despite running away from emotions, gets lost in them, letting them go to extremes (this is the imbalance). Such a person needs to feel supported and is nervous when others are suspicious of his nature or his true intentions. Unaware of her own ability, she becomes indecisive… she is afraid of making mistakes and doesn't trust people. Usually those who have fingernails have a parent, or someone equally influential, who is overprotective.

“Fear” can be recognized in several ways: there are fears that, as a matter of pride, we hide from ourselves; we may fear that they invade our personal space; fear of giving an opinion on a certain subject and, therefore, not being well-liked; fear that someone might interfere with our plans or change them; In short, there are so many diffuse fears in our daily lives that sometimes we can't even identify them. Secret fear is a constant in people with ingrown toenails who are showing in this way that they need to "shrink" or "escape" into themselves in order to avoid "invasions".



If your nails are ingrown, learn to get rid of the inconvenience. Use your imagination to create the world you want and try to relax deeply, “letting go” of feelings of distrust. If you don't believe that thought is a wish-fulfilling force, at least try to dream a little without anyone knowing. It's wonderful to be able to be with yourself, feeling peace in the silence of our body and, at the same time, living the outside world carrying in our hearts the same peace found in this recollection. When we close our eyes and cover our ears, we hear only our breathing and feel a pleasant solitude.
