A minor operation on my toe

I just had a minor operation which lasted about an hour.. I removed a small part of my toe nail due to my in-growth nail.. Now.. I only left with half of my toe nail.. Sob.. Look very ugly..

I was having this extricating pain two weeks ago on my toe.. At first I thought is just a little cut at the side of my toe nail.. But little did I expect to be an infection!! The nail had actually gone the wrong way while growing and it really hurts when I walk.... I got no choice but to seek doctor...

So.. I went to West-point Hospital at Taman Jurong.. Saw a few Bangladeshi waiting to do their check up I suppose.. My hubby drove me there... and we waited for about 15 minutes for the doctor.... Hubby accompanied me to see the doctor..... He wanted me to remove my nail entirely... I hesitated....

I cannot imagine myself walking without a toe nail what!!!!!

I nearly fainted when the doctor say,
" You got to remove the nail to permanently not have this problem."

I asked the doctor for any alternatives way.. He wanna gave me the painkillers and antibiotics to stop the infection.... I agreed..

But then....

Hubby physco me to do the nail removal operation.. He think that I am avoiding.. and escaping from the fact that removal of nail will still be the result even after taking all the medicines.........

In the end..... I plucked out my utmost courage to enter the operation room...........

In the operation room.. I was asked to lay on the bed... I was shivering with fear.... Then, the doctor wanted me to relax while he going to inject the aesthetics.. The needle that is going into my flesh made me even want to cry..... I cried of course.... cried with pain................. Super pain.. The pain is really indescribable..

After 5 minutes.. the doctor once again confirmed that my whole toe is numb....
The operation started...

Is painful... and you can feel that your nail is tearing out by the doctor........ The aesthetic no use..

I cried throughout.. I just felt pity for my toe..........

Now.. is the third day since the painful experience..

Now as painful.. but then bathing is a nuisance.. Changed the dressing just now... Felt sad... cos I lost half of my toe nail... Very unlucky....... Now cannot wear nice shoes... no pedicure for me.....
Sob...
