>Get infection under toenail, ingrown toe nail a result.

>Antibiotics don't do shit, need to get surgery.

>Surgery costs 300 bucks, toe currently hurts like hell and need to keep it elevated for a few days so blood doesn't come pissing out of it.

It is now 2011 and I have to put up with this shit? With all the advances in modern science, why is it that we seem to be lagging so far behind in Biology?

P.S They had to cut the nerve so my toe nail cannot grow anymore. Way to go science.

Blame pharmaceutical companies and the american health care system by relation, not science, fag.

The problem is most people who get into the field of Biology are lazy, and stupid. They end up passing there majors because the coursework is a cinch.

Have no public healthcare.
Blame science.

Science can not help you unless you implement it.

Yurop here. I had an ingrown toenail when I was younger, had to go see a feet surgeon two or three times and done. Hurt like hell though, dem lower nail nerves. Didn't know how much it cost but I'm sure we got most of it paid back, lulz.

In my opinion medical science is barbaric. We have a very long way to go
Tonsil infection = remove them
gall bladder = cut it out
cancer= we dont know lol, so enjoy radiation
Many, if not most mental illnesses are treated with suppressing drugs, because we have no idea why they exist in the first place.

This so much. Also, Western medicine is so stupid and afraid of creating antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains that it tries not to treat existing bacterial infections. The fuck is that.

Are you stupid? How could you even let it go that far. Clip, rip and cut the shit out of it when it starts to grow in and gets infected, its just pain.
