I've tried so hard to fight the urge but it just comes and then I give in. It's not so much the picking anymore but the checking to see if it's ok. I wear socks, slippers, shoes etc but no luck I just end up taking them off and picking/checking instead.
I check them because after I do an activity e.g playing football I have to check and see if the nail is ok and not damaged. lso after if I've tripped on a gap in the floor been crouching with my feet pointed inward etc. I know this sounds stupid but I just want to stop! I've tried websites etc but nothing is helping. Please help!!!!

Sounds like you have obsessive compulsive disorder. Talk to your primary care physician and he will be able to prescribe medications to help fight the urges. There are many different medications on the market now for ocd so try them out and see which one works for you.

I assume, you're not happy that you do this.
So, what's the reward for picking & checking your toenails?
Have you always done this? Is this a new symptom?
Keep a journal & find out when your need is the greatest.
Perhaps it happens more when you're stressed out.
If you can't figure out why you do this, seek professional help.
A counselor or Therapist might help with changing your behavior.

i think you should be fine overnight. try to keep her off it as best you can and make sure it stays clean. hopefully your dog won't fuss with it too much, you want to avoid infection and further damage. give the vet another call in the morning, just to be safe... but take it easy tonight and your dog should be fine. if you find that your dog is trying to chew at it you can make a cardboard cone collar for her... which she'll hate but it'll be worth it if it keeps her away from her foot. just cut a large circle in a piece of stiff paper of cardboard and cut a slit in it and a smaller circle in the middle to fit around her neck. then weave her collar through to secure it around her neck. the cone should extend farther than her nose to prevent her from chewing. good luck! use the link below for better directions
