I used to have a phobia about needles too. One day I was just said fuck it and did it. It honestly doesn't hurt, nothing more than a pinch.

Is an ingrown toenail surgery? I thought it was a simple procedure that took around 5 minutes.

I had it done twice where the dude numbed my toe with a needle, then started to cut off the infection caused by the nail.

They really don't hurt, but I do also got that phobia....I just don't like the view of a needle sticking deep on my skin, best way is too look away.

not really. They hurt when they stick it in you, but then it's just a small pain. Sort of like a pinch. but do you know if they'll be giving you something to numb the pain? If so then that'll hurt, but then afterwords you won't feel a thing.

Well i had my Toenail removed as well, they go in pretty deep with the needle and the first like 3 will hurt. but then the local anasthetic kicks in and you dont feel a thing.. appart from your toe will feel really big and puffy, Like its full of water.

Totally fine. No pain except the small amount from the initial needle.

The feet are the less sensitive part of the body, so it shouldn't hurt. I got my wisdom teeth removed and getting stung in the ceiling of the mouth wasn't fun, but I got stung in 9 places total and only that one was painful.

It'll be alright, if anything the pinching sensation will last a fraction of a second.

Get an iPod and some decent headphones. Drown out distractions and close your eyes. You'll barely know the needle poked you.

I haz a ipod. Good idea, thanks dude.

And you guys are really supportive thank you..

I'm reading the Wiki article about ingrowing toenails and the Vandenbos Procedure is making me feel... uneasy.

This may sound silly, but not looking helps.

Like when they take out the needle, start prepping etc. Don't watch.

I'm fine as long as I'm not watching them put the needle in.

You'll be fine, don't worry.

Repeating what others said, and don't look.

Also, just make sure you're very calm. Don't think about it happening. Hyperventilating and tensing up will only make it hurt more.

It's hard to overcome, but you can do it.

No. They don't. The best thing to do is not look at the needle as it's going inside of you.

Needles don't hurt, really.

What hurts sometimes is the drug they're injecting. For example, when I got my HPV shots, they burned quite a bit when the drug was injected into my veins. However, I haven't heard of anesthetics burning, so you should be fine.

I've only felt them in my mouth (gums) and all it is is a little pinch. If you're really afraid of it then it will seem like it hurts, but it's all in your head.

Literally take your nails and do a quick pinch on your toe. That's what it actually feels like; the rest is in your head.

Got a blood test this Saturday and I can tell you this, needles don't hurt, they're quick and painless. I've never been afraid of needles, even as a kid they didn't bother me.
