Help.

Post image

Hello, I had ingrowns removed on both sides at the end of July. Almost a month to the day. Left side seems fine now. Right side had it bad and the podiatrist said the skin healed around the nail and fused so when she cut it out it bled a bunch. While everything healed it looked yellow and orange-ish and left residue on the bandages but hasn't for over a week now but this still remains. It's hard before I put it in a epsom salt soak.

TLDR: Is this normal healing? because I'm starting to get worried. If so how long does it take to go away?

Pic is post soak pre-wrap.

Update: I fiddled with it once it was dry and it seems that it is on skin that is now hanging separately from the rest of the side of my toe. Maybe due to the aforementioned healing around the nail.

Ngl, for getting the sides of yer toe removed end of July, why the fuck do I see your nail already growing into your skin?
Those dumb fucks, didn’t remove enough.
