I am on Medicare and a podiatrist trims my toenails every 3 months and Medicare pays.

Nail salon probably won't be able to handle them. Try the podiatrist to deal with the nails initially and ask for advice on trimming them in the future.

Definitely Podiatrist. While there, ask for a referral for in home mail clipping. I did moms during pandemic, and treat nasty I’ve been told by the podiatrist one of the best things to use is Vicks vapor rub. Soak feet, dry, slather with Vicks, then socks overnight (or couple hours daytime). EVERY DAY for 2-3 weeks. Use the nippers as recommended if you must, but unless you know what your doing, I’d say no, go to Podiatrist

i even use Vicks on my tootsies now, at least one night a week. Totally works Thick nails can be a fungus, the Vicks will smother it, nails will grow in healthy

(No I don’t own Vicks stock Lolol)

Vick's is so awesome for so many things.

Use a podiatrist. You may be able to find one who will make house calls if you can’t get to the office. That’s what I do. I pay a $100.00 trip charge but it is worth it.
