i did the same thing when my toes bot bashed. it started going ingrown and i walked with a limp it hurt so bad. took out my vise grips and put them on the nail. didn't work though, i put them on the part that you clip and the nail just broke at that point.
when the doctor removed it, he gave me 4 shots, all in the toe. then he took out this metal popsicle type of instrument and shove it all the way under my nail to the cuticle. then he pried it up. he repeated that several times until the nail was sticking straight up.
fun to watch
