Its bright red at the moment She is upset because she knows it might impact her holiday

She can get around at the moment but I am thinking what happens if things get worse considering we go on Sunday my options are limited.

If she is genuinely struggling to walk would be qualify for some for of DAS pass ? do I look at a wheelchair and push it through the queue lines ? Does she just have to struggle on ? Rather have a plan in my head now to try to stop myself stressing.

We are going Universal (Express pass), Volcano Bay, Sea World and Busch Gardens.

I am worrier / planner so can someone give me the low down on what are options are if she struggles to walk on it.

LMAO - kids!

Not sure if this is available in the US, but if you can get hold of it, I highly recommend it - I've suffered with this problem for many years but this has been a game changer for me. I use it every now and then and at the first sign of trouble. I honestly cannot recommend this enough!

I honestly feel her pain, I used to poke, prod and cut mine and it became severely infected.
I had mine cut down each side at the hospital when I was 14 and it never grew back, I have a slim funny looking nail now and always wear nail polish as it is horrible colour.
Keep soaking it, take some bandages and savlon on holiday and if you can I would get some crocs in classic style ( they are fashionable again so your daughter might wear them.
If i have a toe injury ( I broke one a couple of weeks ago) I tend to keep stubbing my toes !
It’s easy to say but try not to poke it and inflame it even more.

Oh that looks cool - thanks

Her tow is back to a normal colour and is still a bit uncomfortable but she seems to be okay now - fingers crossed

Thanks for everyone for entertaining my stressing
