I had an ingrown toenail, which in itelf, hurts like a mother. I went in for the operation-thingy to get the nail removed and the infection cleaned. The docter numbs my foot, and begins. Everything is going well, when all of the sudden, my toe begins to bleed uncontrolably. She (the doctor) did something that made a hissing noise, I dunno what it was- I wasn't watching (hell, I wasn't going to watch my foot get mutilated), and all of the sudden, there's a sharp pain in my toe. Apparently, I bled so much that the numbing chemical got washed out- and she was only half way done with the operation! She numbed it shortly thereafter, but in those 10-15 minutes that it took, it was absolute hell.
