Had this done when I was a teenager. Had to have it done twice infact as the nail wasn't killed the first time on one of my feet.

Didn't get three days rest though!

Mac............. be careful that they don't keep the nails and throw the body away, Marty tells me that there is more sense in your big toenail than the rest of your body.

So we can all expect a reduced level of intelligence from your posts, unless the nails take over your account :wave:

I had that on both feet, don't think it helps with wearing steel toed shoes and on feet all day. I just cut them from the top at an angle into the sides of the toe and pulled out with needle nose pliers, bath in antiseptic and just repeated for 6 weeks and alls good. No rest required, give it a go Mac.

in which case is there a risk that 3 days sat on your butt will suffocate your brain?

Best chop em entirely off to stop em growing back and make a bob or two from selling them as a pair of lucky toe trinkets...
