How much does it cost to have toenails taken off.?!


Question:

How much does it cost to have toenails taken off.?

I have very thick nails and am sure its a fungal infection. I know they can be treated but it would take 1year+ for treatment to work if it does. I am considering having them pulled out if i can. I have four that are very thick the main culprits being my big toes and the ones next to them. They dont really hurt but are unsightly and my partner refuses to go near them which i cant blame her. What i am wondering is how much it costs per toenail removal and will it ensure that they dont grow back. They have been getting worse over the last ten years and sometimes if i dont file them down they push up the tops of my shoes.


Answers:

Check with your doctor, removing a toenail can be very painful, and costly. You would be off work for a few weeks at least. Most docs wouldn't consider it unless you have tried other things (such as fungus treatments) you could also be getting irritation from shoes which is causing your nails to thicken.
