Even though your doctor might give you a timeline of when you will recover, your body doesn’t always follow it. I myself had surgery 20 days ago and while I was supposed to be up and about for work and such in 4-5 days, I couldn’t even sit straight without pain after 10 days. So I can understand the lethargy, pain and overall suckiness one feels post-op.
However, that certainly doesn’t give anyone an excuse to act like a complete a**hole. But that is exactly what this woman did. Apparently having your ingrown nail removed puts you out for two weeks. And while it is okay to not feel 100% after two weeks, what is not okay is acting like this and demanding things from people who are trying to help you.
If I did this my friend would have left me mid-surgery. So scroll on below and take a look for yourself.

I’ve had half my toenail (on my big toe mind you) removed and I was back to work standing on it for 5 hours fine 2 days later. This just sounds like a lazy a**. –Moony0523
Losing a toe-nail and have a doc cut your ingrown (infected) toe-nail out is slightly different though. I had a bandage wrapped around my foot for a whole week and had to keep it higher than my heart otherwise the blood would have come out.
They wrapped it around my toe ~20 and it looked so stupid but it was still blood-soaked the next few days (the doctor had to change the bandage every day) Wasn’t allowed to work for 2 weeks and even during the third week, when I was back at work, my sock was full of blood and my toe kind of still hurt when I got home.
A friend couldn‘t work for 4 weeks so it depends I guess. Dominik3110
Bosses daughter – only has a job because of that reason and gets away with everything!
Start my new job in three weeks so I won’t have to put up with her much longer… wish me luck that there’s no CB’s there hahaha. –fandangooo_
If someone post-op acted this way around you, what would you do? Would you help them anyway? Let us know in the comments below.
