Will doctors use laughing gas to help remove ingrown toenails?

Doctors typically do not use laughing gas (nitrous oxide) for ingrown toenail procedures. Instead, they usually administer local anesthesia to numb the area before performing the removal. Laughing gas is more commonly used in dental procedures and some minor surgeries to help reduce anxiety and discomfort. However, each patient's needs and preferences may vary, so it's best to consult with a healthcare provider for specific recommendations.
