Hello,
The symptoms are suggestive of a condition called ingrown toe nail. Surgical excision of the extra nail will be the treatment of choice.
Consult a general surgeon and get evaluated. Nothing much to worry as it is a simple procedure and can be done under local anaesthesia.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
