I'm sad. I had two toe nail removal surgeries today, guy didn't prescribe me any pain medicine, luckily my toes haven't completely woken up yet but they are still hurting and I can't walk very fast at all. Sadly this isn't as bad as it gets, soon I have to have my wisdom teeth removed :cry: I also have to make an appointment at my cardiologist for some heart condition I have whose name escapes me, I really hope everything's ok. I also have to make an eye appointment (it's past time) because my visions getting worse, I wonder what'll happen next...

 

Or I just do it right the first time

 

Hahaha you have a point

 

Whole toenails? I had to have the same ingrown toenail removed like three times. I was one of the lucky 2% who have then grow back.

 

knock on wood, mine haven't either. I don't think they're totally right, but I've not had any issues since. I do keep it a bit longer than I'd like to try to help out.

 

I had both my big toes done too. Sucked. Mine didn't grow back either.

 

well, not whole nails, I was typing sloppily the removed the inner sides of both my big nails. The right one has been fixed 3 times, this is the first for the left.

 

3/4 edges of big toenails for me.

Used to be horrible back when I played football, before I got them removed. Would take off my socks after practice, and my toe would be stuck to the sock from all of the blood.

 

Ugh same for me, but basketball. And ankle braces.

 

Jeez, enough toenail removal talk already. (shudders at the thought of someone messing with my feet).

 

they messed with mine, I got stuck 9 times

 

The last time, I could still feel them cutting through the skin. The worst part is the needle between the toes to numb them up.

 

That is no fun!!! The Dr said my nerves must run up the wrong side of my big toe according to his med school training as he gave me 5 shots till it numbed!

 

:shudder:

 

Had to drive my sisters Escape to my mechanic about 20 miles with out the alternator working! I said a little prayer just give me enough juice to get there. I had to put the parking lights on even though I needed more light. Then it started to rain and I had to be very prudent with the wipers. As I was one mile away there is road construction and of course I'm the first person stopped. As I'm waiting the dash board starts flickering and he finally let's me go. As I pull into the parking lot it shut off on me and I muscled it into a perfect parking spot! Phew thank you big guy!

 

Well I'm happy, took my bandages off and looked at the nail work, they look very good, he barely took any off, a little polysporin and a smaller bandaid later and I'm all good.

 

mine grow back, but I just cut them again.

 

Glad you made it!
They put some stuff on mine to kill the root so it stops growing. Didn't work the first time.

 

same thing happened to me

 

Snake, I had a W.T. removed in a single session, and two more removed in another session. Both times, I got a dry socket infection in my jaw; they are the WORST! I swore it would have to be a matter of life or death to get that last one out of me. You might consider asking your dentist (or the oral surgeon) for a scrip for antibiotics and start taking them prior to your extraction. Just a thought; hope it goes well for you.
