Question: I need some relief for removed toenail!!!.?
I had 1/2 my toenail and a chunck of skin around the area removed about an hour ago.. They cauterized the entire area.. Now the lidocaine is wearing off and it's KILLING me (I have a very high pain tolerance).. I took 2 tylenol about 30 mins ago, but no relief.. I'm at work and have to make it 2 1/2 more hours.. Anything to help.?!.?!.?Health Question & Answer
Answers:
I would take ibuprofen(advil) instead of tylenol....it relieves aches and pains better because of its anti-inflammatory ingredient.. And it won't hurt you to take another pill of tylenol now(if you don't have advil around) just don't take that much all the time....Health Question & Answer
When you take a bath/shower soak you foot in Epsom Salt (find it in drug store) it takes out pain big time, also just kinda go with the pain when it comes accept it and you may find that it is a little easier than going against it.. Feel Better!!!!Health Question & Answer
