Damaged nail on my broken Big Toe

[dot.hawkes]

The nail is very black and purple with bruising, how long is it likely to be before this one drops of and a new one grows and i can paint it again? : )))

[Minxie]

several years

[dot.hawkes]

you better be joking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it is lifting from the base of the nail now and looks loose.

There`s already one growing underneath, get some pliers and rip it off, go on...do it, you know you wanna

[steviep165]

it isnt guaranteed that a new nail will grow underneath it either dot.

hey elvis, hows about a rendition of dont you, step on my jimmy choo's?

[dot.hawkes]

i am not made of the stuff of heroes Elvis dear!!!!!!!!! Yes you may be right as there does seem to be another layer under there, I just want it to go!

[ELVIS68]

How bout ...The Wonder Of Choo

[mccfluff]

oh my god dot i'm cringing but i would rip it off and see what happens, sorry xx

[tictactoe]

Hey dot,

The average time it takes for the nail to grow from the nail bed to the top of your toe is 1 year...

Know of two cases where the nail had to be ripped off (poison) and the doc's were correct in their advice of the time taken...

[nursecarla]

Don't touch it dots it will come off soon , a new one will grow then you can have a nice new toe :))) x x x x x x x And stop making fun people a broken toe is incredibly painful tut x x x x x x

If I could be you, if you could be me
For just one hour, if we could find a way
To get inside each other's mind
If you could see you through my eyes
Instead your own ego I believe you'd be
I believe you'd be surprised to see
That you've been blind

Walk a mile in my shoes
just walk a mile in my shoes
Before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Then walk a mile in my shoes

Now if we spend the day
Throwin' stones at one another
'Cause I don't think, 'cause I don't think
Or wear my hair the same way you do
Well, I may be common people
But I'm your brother
And when you strike out
You're tryin' to hurt me
It's hurtin' you, Lord how mercy

Now there are people on reservations
And out in the ghetto
And brother there, but, for the grace of God
Go you and I,
If I only had wings of a little angel
Don't you know, I'd fly
To the top of a mountain
And then I'd cry, cry, cry

Walk a mile in my shoes
just walk a mile in my shoes
Before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Then walk a mile in my shoes

But in your case, it`s SHOE
