Recently, about two weeks ago, a minor clinical procedure has been done to me. A momentary pain I have experienced suddenly wiped out more than a month of hurt in my left foot. An inch long needle was injected to me thrice bringing some fluids that will cause some numbness on my left toe. The culprit, my toenail which did not follow normal position while growing cause pressure and scars on part of my toe where a concentration of nerve endings are placed. Although infected, I decided this toenail be removed.
Results, two days out from work having a mild fever. Week long daily taking of antibiotics/pain reliever, wearing of sandals and daily nursing/dressing of wounds. Job impact, being missed by site engineers therefore deferred approval of site installation. Physical impact, I missed 1 Saturday badminton play (my only strenuous exercise).
Lessons learned, first, never wear shoes that are to tight that will cause abnormally positioned growth of toenail. Second, take time carefully cutting the toenails.
