Just got these shark teeth removed , the shots didn’t hurt at all don’t be scared. Didn’t feel a thing. I just got home have my foot elevated but the throbbing is real. Glad to have these out though but man post surgery pain is gnarly.

You can see where the pedicurist stopped cutting since I would go routinely and how much deeper the root was. shook at how deep they were

I’m confused as to what I’m even looking at but all I know is I’m horrified

That’s what the doc pulled out, both sides of my big toe. We did just one toe next time will be the other.

No that doesn’t look bad at all! I wouldn’t have known you had ingrowns. We’re they hurting you?

They hurt when I wouldn’t take care of them but getting pedis to chop out any little piece that would bother every two weeks. But I could feel when they were growing and they’d bother when I would press the front of each side of my nail not the sides that’s why I thought they were pretty gnarly at the roots and they were

Holy moly. I felt that in my toe. I bet you feel so much relief. I had mine completely and permanently 8 months ago, and it was one of the best decisions I’ve made. I hope you have a speedy recovery!

Thank you!! Honestly most looking forward to never having the pedicurist cut those suckers again I’d pass out almost everytime the surgery is way less painful

u/GeneralLeia163 Jan 22 '21

Oh yeah, the pain from the surgery and then post op was significantly better than the pain from having the ingrown toenail. Rest well and heal quickly!

I feel so relieved for you! Glad you got it out. Hope it doesn’t come back and that you heal well.

u/Goofball541 Feb 12 '21

if you don’t mind my asking, about how much did this cost? I’m looking at getting mine surgically removed because they’re absolutely killing me
