and my 21 yo daughter has an infected, ingrown toenail on her big toe!
She just told me about it on Tuesday...called the doctor...had no appointments till next week! She was poking at it, trying to get the nail out...I was poking at it. We think we got it out, but you should see her toe!
It's all red, swollen and throbbing. Her whole foot is red. I called the doctor back yesterday and explained to the receptionist that she REALLY needs an appointment this week. She goes tomorrow at 12:30. I hope the antibiotics he gives her will start working in two days, otherwise, she's gonna be one unhappy camper! I don't know why she waited so long to tell me. She's had problems before...as a matter of fact, her other big toe, they cut out the nail on each side and used some sort of acid so the nail doesn't grow back. Looks like she's going to have to do that to this toe too.
