Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, I'm in pain constantly.

to the planter's wart.... holy shit that thing hurt when i had one. i went through 7 acid treatments for it. to anyone who doesn't know what it is... the wart growns INWARD... into the bottom of your foot. and they remove it by putting acid on, which eats away the skin, then they scrape it off. after that heals, they do another treatment. and so on, until they can scrape off the wart. when the acid gets down to the flesh... oh man it sucked. i could barely walk....

as for the in grown toenails... i get them all the time on my big toes. i've had them cut out before. i never turn away. its pretty damn cool. the lady went to work on my foot cutting it all up and it didn't even hurt. now i had one repeat so often that they actually burned the root after removing the nail. i've never heard of removing the root, but this lady did an acid treatment on the root, and that side never grows back in now.... either way. ingrown toe nails suck.
 
I'm not even sure if I have enough time to make an appointment with a doctor. My flight for Germany leaves August 31st. I think I'll just booze up and then take on the arduous task alone.

Dude PLEASE take pics! And once that wound is open and bleeding and painful, pour some whiskey right into it, it'll help!

You want me to take pictures right now? It doesn't look horrendous from the outside, the ends of my toenails are just sunken into my flesh. The bad one just has a lot of reddened skin around it.
 
this was a bad thread choice for breakfast reading o_O. I don't think i've actually ever had an ingrown toenail, maybe once and i don't think it was that bad.
 
No, post them when you actually start digging at it.

Helpful hint... do it right after you get out of the shower. The nail and the flesh around it will be soft from the warm water and it won't hurt as bad.
