Yeah there's some weird thing going in on Ireland where none of the chiropodists can do the anaesthetic and none the doctors can do the nail job or something like that, my chiropodist explained it to me and it made no sense. I think if I want it off altogether I have to go to Northern Ireland for it which is a faff but at this stage might end up being my best option if it doesn't heal soon. Really hope this isn't going to be an ongoing longterm thing :(

The method I had the doctor use years back was to cut a strip of nail off right back to the bed and then dab that side of the bed in some kind of chemicals to stop it growing (resulting in a narrower toe nail I assume). Done under local anaesthetic
