throbbing index fingernail area

I mashed my finger pretty bad back in August, and had to drill a hole in the nail about 24 hours after. The pain was terrible, and I couldn't sleep. I steralized the smallest drill bit I have, and slowly drilled through the nail (by hand slowly turning it until it went through). I then squeezed it (hurt even more) to relieve the pressure. I kept doing it (through the same hole) for a couple of days until the pressure stopped building. A few days later, I was able to pull the nail off, and now it is pretty deformed trying to grow back. Good luck!!

Hey Jp....
It would be better if you posted all your medical ailments in fight club from now on.

Hey NP I have a hangnail, it hurts so bad, it catches on my sweater and other clothing. I have a call into my doctor to try and get an emergency appointment. Do you have any suggestions? Do you think I will need surgery to get rid of it?

I think I have a bone bruise on my finger from an acorn fight that got out hand. Can anyone tell me how to make the pain stop? I agree, I think fingers have pulses or something in them too, because they really hurt when they're broken or cut or bruised. I wonder why your hair doesn't hurt when you cut it though because I think it has something in it too?:eyebrow:

This makes me think of the cartoons, someone hits their thumb with a hammer and it's all red, swollen and throbbing.

Oh, Nanny Pam should have a good time with that. :killingme
 
My head hurts. I think I have a brian anyourism. And ugly people seem attractive. My shoes smell like fish. What's wrong with me?
