Guest Swifty Posted November 19, 2010 #54 Posted November 19, 2010 Hey Bob, I know exactly how it feels. I did the same thing while forming underground concrete vaults for Ontario Hydro in the 80s, except I took the nail exactly like Jesus on the cross....I couldn't work the clutch on the work truck for weeks afterward...groan. You take care.
oldgoat Posted November 19, 2010 #55 Posted November 19, 2010 another prayer offerd up my friend. and ouch is right. and looking at that kind of makes ya go ouch kind of like when you see a guy get hit in the gonads you just kind of go oh **** LOL
saddlebum Posted November 19, 2010 #56 Posted November 19, 2010 (edited) Well, so far no change except I don't feel half dead any more, so the antibiotics are doing something. I see my doctor again this afternon, and my foot specialist tomorrow. Even though it doesn't look any better it doesn't look any worse either! Ben, yes I am soaking with epsom salts. Here's what I did. Man, I'm really bored...Thats good Bob, however I found that iodized table salt though maybe a little more costly is more effective At cleaning up an infected wound. Between personal injury's the kids and the horses I have used it alot and wether it is well founded or not, I tend to swear by it. Hey Bob, I know exactly how it feels.

You take care. True enough Swifty but like many of us at least you felt it. Poor Bob didn't even know it was there, giving the infection a head start. For myself I think I am glad i was always able to feel it so it could be tended to right away. Good luck Bob Edited November 19, 2010 by saddlebum
mraf Posted November 19, 2010 #57 Posted November 19, 2010 OUCH! Keep up the doctoring and watch where your putting those clod-hoppers. Prayer sent.
sgn Posted November 19, 2010 #58 Posted November 19, 2010 Not the prayers .... This - needing foot protection on construction site I have been wearing this manufactures shoes for years - a little high priced but last forever seems like They have shoes of every style that have nail penatration protection - and some are very light weight.
