Soaking can help, as can some antibiotic ointment like neosporin and a bandaid. Keep it soft and wear a shoe that isn’t tight fitting if possible. Once you get past this, to prevent in the future, invest in a good toenail clipper. Don’t use a regular fingernail clipper, it’s not strong enough and can cause nails to break. Cut straight across, don’t curve. And don’t cut too short.
