When it rains.......

A week ago I accidently ripped off one of my acrylic nails.  It hurt but I figured it would heal easily enough.  It didn't and it has gotten worse over this past week.  I now have an infected thumb and it hurts like a son of a gun!!!  The doctor took a sample of the fluid on my infected thumb to check for the MRSA bacteria....great, just what I needed to add to the list. Results in 2-3 days. I'm on antibiotics now.   At least the painful thumb has me not thinking about my abdominal pain so much....LOL!

Gabby, you don't need another issue, you poor thing!
Never had acrylics before, but I've heard of those
stories. Let us know....

Hugs,

There you go. Nothing like finding a silver lining. It would be really nice, though, if all the pains went away so you could just think about something pleasant for a change. Your thumb sounds SO painful. I hope it heals up soon for you.

It only happened after the nail came off, it kind of ripped my regular nail on the side and somehow I managed to get it infected.

It had loosened and I just finished taking it off and didn't realize how much was still attached, so I ripped part of my regular nail off with it.
