Destroyed Toenail Bed - Help With Camoflage? Posted: 08-14-05 06:43am
Over 20 years ago as a young girl, I had
continual problems with in-growing
toenails on both big toes. After having
the nails removed several times, the
chiropodist advised me to have the nailbed
destroyed to stop my nails from regrowing
inwards.
This was an instant relief to the pain
that I had experienced for several
years.
My problem now is purely cosmetic, I feel
totally embarrassed and am never able to
wear open toed sandals. I have just tried
using false nails with glue, & they
look ok but only stay on for a few hours
before becoming loose.
I just wondered if anyone out there has
the same problem, whether there is any
sort of plastic surgery available or very
strong glue I could use, bearing in mind,
it has to be used directly on skin?
