WWYD- injury frm pedicure pic

[Lndnmummy]

A woman sliced my foot today at pedicure. I am in agony, cant walk. Wwyd?

[ABCAlwaysBeCunting]

It's really unusual in this country for salons to remove hard skin with a peeler or blade like that (or at least it is everywhere I've ever been). I've had it in Thailand but only there.

If the blade wasn't sterilised, I'm afraid I would want to go to hospital to get it looked at.

I would also be making a serious complaint to the salon. If they are so incompetent that they leave you with a serious cut and just go 'oops' then there is something wrong.

Tell me you are not in UK!

[Lndnmummy]

Yes in the uk. Lesson learned. Please be warned.
Dont let anyone use a blade on your foot like that. I should have known better. I was just caught up in the moment of me time and having a treat.

Anyway,
Tmrw is a new day,
Hopefully will feel better

[wavingnow]

Easy to get caught up in moment. I woulgo back with photographic evidence or better still environmental health department, or trade practices of locl council they shouldn't be operating like that.

[TSSDNCOP]

So the next person after you would likely have their feet soaked in a bucket that had just contained bloody water. As might you if "oops" is the stock answer to an injury



I'm glad you got it treated and it's a real shame your weekend has been spoiled but honestly OP anything less than a call to the council and you'll be doing yourself a bigger injustice. Frankly the salon should be expecting to call their insurer pronto on Monday morning.

[TSSDNCOP]

Did they get the accident book out OP?

[DerelictMyBalls]

You poor thing, OP. I hope you didn't pay!

[Lndnmummy]

I will report them, of course I will. No there was no accident book. A lady who followed me to the pharmacy gave her details as she heard them saying it was the 3rd time it happend.

[TSSDNCOP]

Blimey they're in for the mother of all shitstorms OP.

Unsanitary conditions, dangerous practice and no accident procedures. They're the sort of business that makes PLI go through the roof for everyone else.

I'm the least litigious person but I'd also be on the phone to the council and a solicitor first thing on Monday.

[TheRollingCrone]

How do you feel today Lndn ?. Hope you,ve had plenty of feet up with

[NationMcKinley]

Bloody hell. That looks incredibly painful. I'm pretty laid back, non "ambulance chaser" kind of person iykwim but I would absolutely be taking that further especially in light of the other person saying it was the 3rd time it had happened.

The pedicurist (is this even a word?) needs some serious retraining.

for you OP.
