I was surprised at my doctor's treatment for it. She took an 18g needle and twisted it gently through the nail to desanguinate it. When I got home I noticed a pocket still there so I got out my nursing school supplies and did it again in another spot. Worked like a charm, but my nail fell off. Awesome blog Doc!
