  You joke, but I’m missing a nail on one of my big toes and it’s so much more comfortable and less hassle that I kind of wish all my toenails were gone.

  …not so sure about fingernails though. They’re pretty useful for picking things up or praying things open.

    Is your toe nail completely missing, or do you still have some root growing? I have two that have a bit of root that just grows and gets uncomfortable until I pull it out. Not sure is trade the rest of my nails for that tbh

      How exactly does the “root” work. I was wheeling a ticket podium with other items in my hands back in 2006, the podium slipped and landed on my left big toe. When I took my shoe/sock off I found the back part of my toe nail was square (and had been popped up through the skin like the hood of a Corvette. I dumbly(?) tore the rest of it off and proceeded to be stupid and put my sock back on and finished my shift. Somehow the nail grew back but the part that had tissue damage where I tore it off in the front I guess never healed right and so the nail would have to grow ‘over’ the wound and would be really thick there. If the squared off back part isn’t the root, what is?

        I’ve done the same thing just being absent minded. Removing the nail is something that’d probably have happened either way after it’s detached. It won’t grow, a new one should start from under it, and the dead one will just be an annoying hard thing hanging on to what ever skin is left attached. If part of it is still somehow stuck to the bed, it’s usually better to pull it out unless the majority is fine.

        It took several months to grow a new big toe nail and it still feels funny (overly sensitive) to this day.

        Idk exactly, but the root itself goes like an inch or so into your toe.

        Kinda like you, I’ve got random spots where the root grows and piles up, but since most of the root is dead, it’s only like one or two spots on the whole toe. One of them is bad enough that once a year or so it annoys/hurts enough that I remove the offending nail and end up pulling part of the root out. Looks like a newborn horn off of an animal lol

      Completely gone. Was badly ingrown and after a doctor removed it three times and it grew back ingrown again every time they just destroyed the root completely.

        wtf, they took the whole nail off!? Not that I’d really mind, for the reasons you’ve stated. Ingrown toenails somehow run in my family, but when I get the permanent procedure done the doctor still just removes a slice off on the side. What made them do the entire nail?

        Lucky, they tried to do the same for me, but they didn’t get all of it. It’s rather annoying at times, but I’ll take it over the ingrown toenails.

    I’ve got one fucky nail and every two weeks I’ve gotta pull it with tweezers because it grows in cup shaped and the point of the cup is too pointy for my delicate toesies. I’m thinking about burning it off with silver nitrate.

    • FeatherConstrictor@sh.itjust.works ⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      So when you say pull it with tweezers… You mean pull your nail all the way out??? Doesn that hurt how the hell do you do that?

      • HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        I clip it all the way down to like 1mm². The nail is cracked in half already. Also pulling a nail is like a 2/10 unless you do it slow then it’s a 4.

  Years back I was briefly into creepypastas. One I read was a guy who had a habit of chewing his nails and that people around him always made a big deal about it but he thought they were overreacting. At the end it was revealed that he had long ago chewed away his fingernails and was now chewing through his actual fingers without realizing it. As a result he was institutionalized for his delusions, I think.

  This picture makes me think of that. Thanks, I guess.
