I had a big toe nail removed because it was ingrown on both sides.  But the doctor missed part of the root so it halfway grew back on one side.

You don't have to have the whole nail removed. I had just the sides cut out where they chronically grow into the skin. Then had the chemical burns just to those spots so that part of the nail never grows back. I have not had any problems since I had the procedure.

My doc recommended removal, cutting the bad part would probably have just let it do it over again later.

And as for @CPUWIZ - I did take a picture, but no, not going to send that one to anybody.  :D
