It has got to be one of the most painful things to exp. And of course a little later the nail will detach and then take a few months to grow back [Sorry I am being helpful am I not ! ]
If you are still having a lot of throbbing nauseating pain..........its bleedin underneath and building up pressure - the nerves in that area are very sensitive it seems as they are very close to the surface. You may need to let the Doc "puncture" it
I am speaking from recent experience. When the pain and nausea got to much I punctured it myself through the nail and it gushed like a geyser - and then .......Relief !!!
And in my next reply I describe how people will be crushed and squished at Armageddon !
Jy het lekker gevloek ! Its the best thing at the time !
Ps What happened with the Sharks last week ???
