Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement 's  Response
Hello dear friend
Definitely in growing nails are tough to treat on own , should either trim the nail yourself or get operated by an surgeon and get it removed either partial or total and the fresh nail would be normal
well as far as the wart is there planter warts are also stubborn u may apply the topical anti wart solutions but if they don't respond you can go to the skin doctor and get them removed
feel free to ask again something you don't follow
