4 month old’s ingrown toenail

My 4 1/2 month old has had his ingrown toenail cut out twice and it keeps coming back, this time it is very infected, could this infection spread, and what can I do to get rid of it for good?

    Well, I’ve spent my whole life (17 years) with my right little toe overlapping the next one and I’ve never had any problems walking or whatever. Also, I know a guy at school who has both of his second toes shorter than his third toes and he’s on the track team! Don’t think you’ve got too much to worry about in that respect. Just do what my mom did for me. When I was real young she always encouraged me to go barefoot or wear sandals. By the time I was old enough to be in school I wasn’t all self concious about my toe and I still wear sandals all the time. : Thank you in advance.
