Any doctors in the house?

So about 14 years ago I was working in a factory. Someone knocked a 300lb pallet onto the ground and it smashed my toe. It was bad my entire toe turned purple. The nail popped off and there was a hole in the top of my toe I could see the bone. I never went to the doctor for it. The nail grew back all gnarly. So the past couple of years I've been feeling sick and just not felling well. I've been having swollen lymphnodes. I went to the doctors a couple years ago. She said I had an infection because my white blood cell count was high. I couldn't think of anything or anywhere I might have an infection.

So tonight after a shower I noticed the joints in my toe were kind of stiff. So I started investigating and it looked a little inflamed around the nail. I wasn't really having much pain. It looked like it might have been infected. It wasn't looking gang green or anything like that. I decided to soak it in peroxide. After an hour of soaking and some fizzing I could feel it tingling deep in my toe. Now the swelling my lymphnodes as gone down and I feel less sick. Actually I feel really good.

Could it really be my toe that was making me sick? I'm having a hard time believing that it could be something so minor.

I would go get the nail removed but I'm afraid to let anyone near my toe. It took years to heal and the thought of someone shoving a needle in it sends shivers down my spine.

Go see a doctor.

If you listen to any of us you will learn fast that you probably have toe cancer.

wow, you had an infection in the toe and you are asking if it could make you sick?

The most logical answer is;" Yes " people died from simple infections once.. So if a infection could make you sick, "yes".
Could an infection kill you " yes"

The bloodtests on the white showed an infection..

You have to get the # sorted out, go to a doctor and take the nail off...

Go and get it looked at, if it makes you feel better i got a needle in my ball sack for a vasectomy ...if i had a choice i would rather the needle in the toe ....

Ok thanks for the advice. I just hate going to the doctors. The last time I went I had a dark spot on my lip. I told the doctor that I smoke. He looked at the spot on my lip and said "that looks like cancer". He said "we're going to cut out a piece of you lip you can tell everyone that's where you put your cigarette". Seriously he had me freaked out until the biopsy came back. I'm only 39 years old. I thought I was done for. But anyways I'll go to the doctor.

You're first mistake is seeking medical advice from a conspiracy website. I'm surprised no one's told you to stick your toe under a pyramid and burn sage over it yet.

I was just kinda wondering what the general consensus would be. I don't have anyone to talk to at the moment. The people here are more sane then the ones I live with.

I doubt it.

Make yourself an appointment with the doctor and get yourself taken care of. I can't stand going to the hospital/clinic as well, but sometimes you just have to go in and bite the bullet.

They will probably give you some antibiotics and push you out the door.

Unless you have to cancer.

You most likely do not have toe cancer, high t-count & lymphnodes confirm your good health.

Could it really be my toe that was making me sick?

Yes

because of the nail

don't remove it, sculpt it with a fine blade to where the quarter inch spongey root goes only above the flesh as seen in the diagram kindly provided by your other foot.

it's painful so be a man about it

I have been banned by the erasmus college of medicine in anderlecht, belgium, therefore am not a real doctor

profilaxis says please don't forget to vodka clean the whole thing including instruments and hands before and after

If you think there is the slightest possibility that bacteria is getting under the nail, and multiplying, then yes, it could be making you sick. Absolutely.

As the first Mom to weigh in, this is why we tell our children about 'blood poisoning' ... so that when this very situation comes up, they know the answer to the question 'But why do I have to go to the doctor?'

The benefits of going to the Dr. faaaarrrr outweigh the costs at this point...

What kind of Dr. sees that your white blood count is high, says you likely have an infection, and then sends you on your merry way?

Try colloidal silver for a week or so. Sounds like a puncture wound and something may have been hibernating till your immune system was weakened.

Many years ago I had a fungal infection of my fingernails from an unknown source. Took meds that were $200 per month with no help. Dermatologist..no help.

A few years later read about colloidal silver for fungus. Took it 3 weeks (probably longer than needed). it totally went away and have never had another problem.

are you taking the Hydrogen peroxide baths regularly or did you just do it the once as you might want to do this for at least a few nights. you should be using the food grade version as the normal peroxide you buy normally has stabilizers in these come from Monsanto.
You could also get some thyme oil which does the same job as antibiotics without the side effects like diabetes which you can get within 48 hours due to the B6 being drained out of your body.
