Dr. Apex Posted August 26, 2006 Report Share Posted August 26, 2006 Somehow this morning I managed to catch a nice chunk of wood under my fingernail shoving it completely underneath it. Peice was probably the width and thickness of a popsicle stick!! So I go to urgent care and they pull most of it out, of course they have to cut about half of my nail off to get the rest out.. :thumbdown I have to go back to the doctor monday to have it checked for infection and such and I'm told I may still lose my nail.....this sux ass!! But at least I get good drugs now, Vicodin FTW!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurkvinny Posted August 26, 2006 Report Share Posted August 26, 2006 I feel for you. 3 weeks ago, my deck attacked my foot and implanted a piece of wood about half as big as a toothpick into my foot. Felt like a retard going to urgent care after 3 hours of digging at it myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImUrOBGYN Posted August 26, 2006 Report Share Posted August 26, 2006 Fuckin ow to both of those. Years ago, my step father and I were tearing down a half built house for the wood. While walking around, I accidentally stepped on a 16penny nail. I began hopping to a place to sit down and, you guessed it, I stepped on another with my other foot. We're smart enough not to leave wood with nails sticking out of it, but we weren't the oringinal 'tear it down' people. We bought the property with the house on it.

Tractor Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 I wouldn't let you know I was laughing, but if I where there I'd probably have had to go outside for that one ImUrOBGYN. wow that must have hurt. Evan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Science Abuse Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 I've had a big toe almost completely off. Most painfull part? The frickin lost nail and the exposed skin under it. Sucked for a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trouble Maker Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 You went to the doctor for that.... http://img320.imageshack.us/img320/3552/frontsmall1sl.jpg ....I really should have an up to date tetanus shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Apex Posted August 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 I did get a tetanus shot, but they've improved those drastically since I last had one, it didn't hurt at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trouble Maker Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 I did get a tetanus shot, but they've improved those drastically since I last had one, it didn't hurt at all. I was saying I need to get one because I'm probably not up to date. Jesse what the hell did you do? Here is the post I made about it. This happened last summer, a little over a year ago now.

Yeah, shots don't bother me at all. I'm actually going through classes to be on Ski Patrol right now and there is a list of five or so shots/vaccinations they suggest you get because of things you have a remote possiblity of being exposed to. The tetanus shot is one of them. I'm going to go in, it's just a matter of calling my doctor and figuring out what I'm not up to date on, and making an appointment. It's kind of a pain trying to get to the doctors office when you work at least 8:30 to 5 every M-F. How's your finger doing, better I hope?

Dr. Apex Posted August 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2006 It's tender still but it seems to be getting better. I know about the doctor thing, I work 6:30am until were done for the day, which can be between 3pm and 7pm on average, so I never plan anything on the weekdays.
