I just pulled off an entire toenail. EWWWWW.

Hopefully that will help clear up the green oozing along with the antibiotics im taking. It was itching like hell and driving me bonkers. Ive never done anything like that before. YUCK. hehehehe thats what I get for backpacking with wet feet!

I've never had a fungal infection........except for Thrush. That was from some major antibiotics i was taking.

that really is gross!
I hope the toenail removal made you feel better, I am finding it a bit nauseating. Green & pus-sy (eeewwww) TMI! I hope the do-it-yourself surgery didn't hurt too much.

I do get athlete's foot from time to time however. Usually going barefoot for a few hours a day helps to clear it up.

So I have persistent gun irritation from a temporary molar crown. Every time I floss it bleeds pretty good. There was a mosquito in the bathroom this evening, and as soon as I finished flossing the trouble area, the mosquito attacked the now bloody dental floss. Ick.

Are you sure you don't mean "gun irritation with a "mortar" crown"? I could help you with that one or at least it's in my arsenal.

I thought mosquitoes were attracted to heat and carbon dioxide.

I wonder what the attractant was to the dental floss?

I don't see mosquitoes hovering over road kill like the flies do.
