You see I have heard this multiple times and read it online too, nonetheless I had to ask my pedicurist to round my toenails, otherwise by next day it’s in my flesh and hurts.
I try to even clip mine into a bit of a V (but very subtle; ~10°). Had a friend teach me that in college. It feels weird for a day or two but I haven’t had ingrown nails since.
this stopped happening to me when i heard i shouldn’t round the edges of the nail when cutting them
Okay I’m going to try that
That’s so counter intuitive. Like, the things at the sides are those that hurt you. But as long as you let them do their thing it’s fine.

You’re lucky, I’ve never done that and still get them.
For me it stopped when covid hit and I started working from home. I am barefoot 90% of the time.
My back pain has also gone since then.
