immediate big toenail is almost off
as a result of trauma 3 days ago i had multi symptoms hours later. my doc told me to get to the emergency room right away and i did. i am allergic to antibiotics and i was given some percoset as the doctor told me the worst wuld be if my toenail was off exposong the nail bed. i just had to make it until monday to see my podiatrist.

however, it is not making it and the nail is coming off before i can get to the doctor. i have redness, edema, oose and PAIN -- and the nail will be off by tomorrow. what can i do to hold it on as the hospital told me the pain would become excrutiating.

Ankle braces go on fast and the athlete does the applying so there is no waiting in line to be taped. Valuable trainer and coach time is saved when taping is eliminated.
