Experts say at least six million Americans develop
painful ingrown toenails each year. But regularly
soaking ingrown nails in warm salt water baths
can cure these painful infections within four days,
say scientists at California 's Stanford University .
The salt in the mix naturally nixes inflammation,
plus it's anti-bacterial, so it quickly destroys the
germs that cause swelling and pain. Just mix 1
teaspoon of salt into each cup of water, heat to
the warmest temperature that you can comfortably
stand, and then soak the affected foot area for 20
minutes twice daily, until your infection subsides.
