First go for removal of ingrowing toe nail please. There is no conservative approach for it.

A) Antibiotics can cause neuropathy
B) it is unlikely that a 2 week course would cause neuropathy in an otherwise neurologically intact patient. In fact you should consult because it is unlikely that you are dealing with neuropathy, so the diagnosis needs to be questioned.
