well as i type this I'm sitting with a bandage on my big right toe ,
the story is so crazy i still cant believe how it happened ,
i was stamping my feet to get mud off my shoes when i miss timed a stamp and hit my toes of the jutting ledge of the stair ,i jumped about for a bit cursing my stupidity ,then as the pain subsided i thought bloody h*ll how stupid was that ,
later on that night i was going for a bath and noticed some blood on my big toe and that the nail was broke rather deep ,so i had my bath and put a plaster on the toe to help the nail nit back in ,
two days latr i started to feel a throbbing in me big toe and by the next day it was extremely painful ,so off i trots to the docs takes off the plaster and hey presto my feckin toe is poisoned what a bummer ,its getting better, taking lots of penicillin 2 box`s lol, according to the doc double the dose because of my diabetes lol
the moral of this story is don't take your feet for granted and plant a plaster on any cuts get them seen too immediately it will save pain and medication lol
