Pain After Toenail Surgery?
1 Answers
I'm trying to plan a bit ahead as am having both sides of both of my big toenails removed at the same time on Monday.
I have some difficulty getting about anyway so am trying to be organised tomorrow. I'm going to get stuff in so I don't need to go out after it on the Monday but are they still likely to be very painful the day(s) after? Got to get the re-dressed on the Tuesday anyway so will have to get out for a bit.
I know a fair few people on here have had it done from my previous questions so thank you for any further help.

From the NHS website:
"After having nail surgery, your toe will be wrapped in a large sterile bandage. This will help stem any bleeding and prevent infection. You should rest your foot and keep it raised for 1-2 days after the operation.
After the anaesthetic has worn off, your toe may be sore and tender. To help reduce any pain, you may need to take a painkiller, such as paracetamol, and wear soft shoes or open-toed sandals for the first few days following surgery.
You can remove the bandage two days after having nail surgery. Soaking your toes with salt water will help the area heal".
