For me, they applied local anesthesia, grabbed the nail with some tool, then pulled it the fuck off. I don’t know if this is how it is always done, but this was a military doctor (I was a dependent).
To make it better, I watched them do it. When applying anesthesia at one point I watched the doctor stick the needle into my toe and just spray it onto the floor because he went all the way through. I also had a trip to NYC a few days after, so I walked around there with a toe bleeding and wrapped in gauze. It was a memorable time.
