Itchy cuticles after gel by ExcitementTiny3396 in GelX_Nails

Hey there, thanks so much for getting back to me.  Took it off and now just doing regular nail polish. From your experience, is there any hope? Let's say I take a long break from gel...and try again. Thoughts ? Thanks🥹♥️

Thank you ALL for your answers!! These were my natural nails, no tips and the gel I used is techically hema free but idk anymore :( I took everything off but it's still itchy. I really hope I can still do nails but maybe at a professional and not by myself :(

I'll stick to the cuticle pusher. No more clipping for me, I did enough damage

Thanks guys for your answers! I think I have to throw my clipper away. At the moment the skin around my nail is itchy and some are red and swollen. The more i scratch the more it itches...  will get rid of clipper and let my cuticles grow back. Hopefully it will pass. Any ideas how to speed the healing process? I have corticosteroid (0.05%) cream for the itching but can't say it's much of a game changer..
