...i took a leatherman and proceeded to cut down the middle of the toe nail and rip them out (both big toes)
...and both times stunk to high heaven....rather worryingly there is another toenail underneath!!! but its all manky and black.
Now thats real male grooming ...and both times stunk to high heaven....rather worryingly there is another toenail underneath!!! but its all manky and black.
My main offender recently cracked right down the middle from top to bottom.
I'm going to try Rach*s Tea Tree Oil... if that fails I'll seriously think about having the bugger off.

Odd question. How does it feel when you touch it?Rob. said:

Odd question. How does it feel when you touch it?at some points there is no feeling in it what so ever, I can stick a pin in it, and not feel a thing
I avoid shorts and open footwear like the plague; nails shot to hell (no idea why) but that's not the worst part: I've a massive scar over my left knee from an accident involving a bowling ball 8 years ago (that hurt) and a massive scar on my right leg from where I smashed it to pieces skydiving last year (that hurt more).
Anyway, if it isn't the state of my toe nails or the sheer amount of metal in my legs that repulses people, I'm pretty sure their alblaster-white colouring will

5 drops Lavender and 5 drops Roman Chamomile essential oils in 2 teaspoons of carrier oil (grapeseed/almond or sunflower oil) helps a lot with itching. Been using this on really itchy bits of eczema and it helps.
Mixing the essential oils with aloe vera gel would be good too as aloe vera is an anti-inflammatory and itchy stuff usually results in inflamed bits.

Had 4 ingrowing toenails on my big toes in my late teens (ie both sides of both big toes). Had them dealt with by a chiropodist clinic, who cut out 3 of the sides and just fixed the 4th. I have never known any pain comparable to the 4 local anesthetic needles into each toe (one of each was behind the nail...nnngh) in prep for the operations.
But hey, 15 years later and I've never had a problem since (had the nails cut down the edges, removed and then treated with some weird st that stopped it growing sideways)

This quickly got infected, had to go to surgery to have toenails removed, got infected again, (and both times stunk to high heaven i mean absolutely disgusting) just as it seems its clearing up, in cambodia, i stub my toe so hard on a ledge, the toenail rips itself off completely, and rather worryingly there is another toenail underneath!!! but its all manky and black.
Honestly, its disgusting now.
