So the big toe on my right foot has an ingrown toenail. It fucking hurts like a son of a bitch.

Discuss.

I'm actually terrified of going to a doctor because the last time I went for this (about six years ago) the doctor started poking at my toe with a scalpel, and oh my fucking god did that hurt like a motherfucker.

Man ive had these on my big toes, I also currently have one. Its best to just go to the doctor and have them numb and cut it out. It only takes about 10 minutes

All a doctor is going to do is jam toenail scissors and cut the ingrown part down to the root. You can do it yourself, or pay the doctor to do it. It might be hard to do yourself because it really does hurt once he gets down to near the root, but I'm in Canada so I went to let the doctor do it for free. You can also get it done with freezing and cauterizing, which I've also done, but that will cost more.

My advice would be to get a scapel and toenail scissors and have at 'er.

Chill, I think you need to tell him to man up and do it the right way.

Get some really strong fishing line. Get some ice. Freeze your toe, and wrap the fishing line around, and constantly pull tighter until your toe falls off.

Never have to worry about that ingrown toe nail ever again.
Not bad for a cat toy.

I'd like to say, depending on how bad it is because it could just be a light nipping rather than a real burrowed in bastard, this could be a whole new world of pain for you and could just end up making it worse lol

you are joking right? when i got my ingrown toenail taken out, they numbed that shit AND IT hurt. that was the first time. They didnt burn the root so it grew back into the skin and they had to do it again.... there was quite a lot of blood but trust me it was well worth it. Having an ingrown toenail hurts like a fucking bitch and i am so glad that i got it done. BUT there was no way in the fucking world i would be able to do it myself

The last time I had one, I did it myself. At first it wasn't that bad, but eventually it hurt like fucking crazy.

I'm trying to work up the nerve to just go cut the ingrown part off, but just thinking about it makes me cringe.

get someone to KO you and then have them do it.

(Doing by yourself is probably the best option. Suck it up bitch! :D)

Go to a doctor, let him cut it of and put a bandage on it, itll bleed alot. Be careful to not get it wet when your taking a shower in the beggining and it will heal.
mostly harmless
