Is there any tablets that can stop infection of an ingrown toenail?

Its getting very painful. My sister said that there are tablets that doctors give you to stop the infection and then you can try and remove it yourselfIs there any tablets that can stop infection of an ingrown toenail?
There are tablets to prevent -fungal- nail infections, but (other than maybe just general antibiotics) none that I know of to prevent infection.


This site has a step-by-step guide to home treatment of ingrown nails: http://firstaid.webmd.com/ingrown_toenai鈥?/a>

i tried to remove one myself a few years back and it did not work. I went to a foot doctor and and to cut it out and part of my actual nail and had to go back for a couple more visits to get my nail back to growing in normal... and yes they give you a antibiotic cream to put on it.... and pill too.
Go to a foot Dr., U don't go messing around with things like that your self, A toe or finger is very easy to get infected.
yes -ask your doctor.
