hahahaha..

I read somewhere that this is caused by wearing shoes that are too tight, so the "flesh" under the big toe isn't allowed to expand..

I hear flip flops fixes the problem..  or (wider tip shoes).

I had this when I was younger, I ended up having both big toe nails removed several times.

OUCH!

And the bandage ALWAYS stuck in the wound.  Even the guaranteed non-stick bandages.  Every time.

I don't bite them. But I use fingernails to cut toe nails... Don't ask how, I just sorta do it. Whenever big toe nail is in that corner, I proceed to cut it and pull the whole corner off. The relief...

I can bite the big toe. That's about it.

I used to tear my nails. Like just pull off the extra but that leaves an ugly edge and takes forever to smooth out so I started clipping them.

Now, I hate the feeling of clipping them so I just file them down.
