crazybrit -“Please can I have some sound advise,

my grown toe nail has returned, how can I fix it and stop it returning again?”

Don’t tell me in Britain they spell advice -ADVISE.

If you are too lazy to see a Podiatrist or if these type of docs weren’t invented in G.B. – take an ice cube -numb the toe and cut straight down with a scizzors. Clean the wound with soap and water or hydrogen peroxide and cover with a band-aid (I guess bandage for Brits). Stop any bleeding first with pressure placed on it with a gauze pad.

Is it infected? Ya know -bright red and pus comes out after you cut it. If so, then you will need to soak it in warm water for a bit. Then you can cover it with a band-aid which has on it an antibiotic, such as Bacitracin.

To prevent recurrance -always cut your nails straight across.

As for payment for my services -you can forget it -I don’t like Euros or Pounds or whatever you call money nowadays!
