If you go private it's not even a full on surgery these days... It's like a 10 minute procedure with a laser scalpel . NHS it's the rusty scissors, hahaha.

I actually watched them do the whole thing, which apparently is unusual, most people close their eyes or look away. I always watch these things!

And tbh, it was like 50% less traumatising than when I had my big toenail removed. That was ****ing disgusting to watch and so painful that I feel sick thinking about it.

Oh that sounds horrific, I would not watch that, I don't even look when I'm getting blood drawn

Did you watch as they removed your toenail? I had to have my thumbnail removed after an accident and the junior nurse in attendannce passed out.
