Just need to have a moan...

Evening guys,

I've come on tonight to have a bit of a moan. My big toe is so very painful atm, that it's driving me to distraction. Even a sock is hurting it, so much so that it actually takes my breath away.

It's not even an ingrowing toenail like is what usually causes the issues on my toes. It's painful on the very top of the whole nail, I think it's dehydrated to the extent where the nail is shrinking and kind of pinching which is what's paining me.. If that makes sense?

Anyhoo, I've come in the hopes that someone has had similar symptoms and can hopefully explain what's going on. I will obvs book into see the doc and I think push for a chiropodist session.

Thanks for your time guys 🙃
