***(Pic with Blood)*** I'm not riding for a few days

[mr_diver]

After deciding to move the living room around, I picked up the sofa at one end and quickly caught my toe nail and ripped it backward, almost completely off.

I think this one beats Juv's thumb from just before ST6

[MartinW]

Feck, that hurts just looking at it.

Jeeze that looks bad. I'm off riding too after having my tonsils out. Then the wounds ruptured at home where I lost over a pint and a half of blood, lost conscience because of sudden blood loss, got stabilised by a rapid response paramedic and whisked to A&E by ambulance, with blood still coming from my mouth and nose (luckly a lot less).

I have to say it he certainly earned extra man card points today, barely even flinched!! I on the other hand nearly fainted before running to the chemist in my slippers for sterile dressings as had nothing bigger than a childs finger plaster in the house.
Also willbo that sounds terrifying hope you're feeling better now xx

So you don't have any conscience then?

Or did you mean conciousness?

I was lucky I had a nurse at home. but I had to finish the dressing myself.

Another one  

Love it  

I'm going to be the annoying man here soon  

[Jacko]

I have a small scab on my knee.

[loggamatt]

Bloody hell... having had my toenail removed in an operation when I was in my early teens, I know how painful that is just from having the dressings changed!  Extra man card points indeed!

[Yoyo]

Shit bloke! You said there's was blood, no mention of ripped off nails!!  Just glue the nail back on, it'll be fine ;)

[Marauding Princess]

I was lucky I had a nurse at home. but I had to finish the dressing myself.  

More like grabbed the tape from me in a fit of bad patient syndrome!! I was not letting you touch it before it was covered and safe from your grease stained paws!!!
The extra man points still stand, I would've called an ambulance if it was me and needed gas and air  

[Gassoon]

that's looks really shocking, mr diver...yeuk! Bloody painful. No slippers? Tut!

Slippers might stop you biting the other ones down as well ;-)

[Strommer]

Cut a teabag open, trim to about ten nail sized pieces, superglue each onto the wound one at a time, letting each layer dry before applying the next.  Hello presto, new nail.

[UK_Vstrom650]

Mr_diver,  

Get well soon!

[Juvecu]

That looks very painful, definitely worse than mine, but I still hold the title for the one that injured myself in the most idiotic way It's going to be bothering you for weeks, every time you have to put on or take off shoes.

What's this about almost feinting, Jen? Nurses can't be squeamish

What's this about almost feinting, Jen? Nurses can't be squeamish

I'm not normally, but this was especially bad, I think it was more empathy than squeamishness but in real life it was much worse than the picture and easily in the top 3 of most disgusting injuries I've dressed.

[Juvecu]

And it's because it's someone you care for, it's always more alarming if that's the case

My good lady watches some gory crime drama stuff, but freaked out when I got my finger pinched

[Locky]

FFS Diver , that looks a mess . How you feeling now ? Good job you have your own A&E dept in the house   . I had half my big toe nails removed due to in-growing and didn't have no pain but having one ripped off makes me shiver ...No worries if you can't make it on sat ...
