Firecats post reminded me of a Doc's visit where I got the "Does this hurt" question.
I had managed to get ingrown nails on both sides of my big toes. Finally I relented and went to a doc to get them cut out and that stuff whatchyamacallit that stops them growing back put on.
I got to lay down on the bed, the doc injected each side of the toes in question with local anthessissi.... aniseed... antithesis... feel good stuff . Went away to let it work its magic and came back.
Snip snip dab dab.
Toe 1 is done. He shuffles over to the second one and...
Sni... WHOOOOOSH!
My foot goes flying up just pass his head as I feel, and I mean FEEL the pain. To ease your wince factor slightly, I kicked with the free foot, i.e. the one WITHOUT The sharp objects currently in close proximity. I'm nothing if not observant, in such situations.
In retrospect I blame my "Freaky immune-system (tm)", as I have no idea how I did it. The anneett..... y'know what I mean, had worn off enough It wasn't really working anymore. The Doc looked at me with a "that was close" grin and asks "Did that hurt?"
There's always a comedian.
He re-did the numb-ing magic, finished it off, and all was well in the land of Toes.
So to recap - Poke under nail with sharp object = attempt to kick doctor in head. My Ninja training is progressing.
