Yuk that looks infected mate. Shame we don't have smellavision on the forum. :roll: Sea water will work wonders if you spend enough time in the Sea. If not, then you need one of them foot spa's (or bike oil draining pan :lol: ) and some bath salts, you can get some in Epsom :wink: Then stick you feet in that while watching the moto gp. And yeh get yourself a pair of Croks you want to let the air get to it so it don't remain moist and manky.

You can also get plasters with a gel type substance to help draw the puss out too, but I don't think your at that stage unlike my ankle when that was an open wound. Now that was proper rotten and smelt like death and should have had some maggots. That was when they stuck me on IV antibiotics that left a nasty metallic taste in my mouth. I could see what was left of the bone, tendons and everything before the flesh grew back and the wound closed up. :eek2

Yes ask your GP for a prescription for 4 weeks convalescence in the Caribbean for your smeggy toes.

They don't smell as it happens...

Part of the routine I have is to bath in warm salty water before dressing...

Was told not to be tempted to leave them uncovered as that is how you get an infection...

I will be off to the doc's to check on things soon...if I can get an appointent that is... :roll:

I had both my toenails removed in my late teens. They looked just like that for a while. It's because the nail cells are trying to grow without a proper bed apparently. They sort themselves out eventually and will just grow a thick skin. Good luck with it! They wouldn't do both of mine at the same time, I was too active!

Yuk! Nothing super about that. :sick:
Hope they are feeling a little better cause they sure don't look it. Might be worth getting them checked, just to be sure.
Just make sure you are all fixed up for Devonshire Storm. We don't want you to be missing out :thumbup:

Had both mine done when I was about 14/15. Had to go to school in sandals for ages with these giant toe bandages sticking out.

They do go a bit gooey for a while but now it's all just hard skin. They were a nightmare before the op, constantly giving sharp pain and having to, umm... 'drain' them every night :?

You'll all be glad to here that they don't hurt.

If you care to look & can count that high you'll see that there are TEN toes per foot as is the norm & no webbing insight yes the operation was a success..hoorahhh!
