					Dear Tessa, 
Your ingrowing toe nail may be infected if it is very painful at present, in which case antibiotics would be the first line of treatment. I should advise you see a doctor for assessment. If surgery (either partial or total removal 
of the nail) is required we have a doctor who can do that at SOS Clinic. I do not know of any European Chiropodist currently working in Moscow. Regards,
