canay10 0 Report post Posted March 13 (edited) I have this thing where my fingers and even forearms will start to ache if my nails get too long. And by too long, I mean I can let the white grow to 1 mm (0.04 inches?) before it becomes uncomfortable, which takes around 1 week. I remember it's been like this since before I started cutting my nails close as a result of the pain, so I guarantee that it's not about being used to it. I mean I've read about arthritis and inflammation and ingrown nails and what do you think about the cost of acrylic nail removal, but none of it seems to match what I'm experiencing. Not even keyboard stress, because it happens regardless of my finger activity levels, and always when the nails reach a certain length. It takes maybe an hour after I've cut them for me to not feel it anymore. I'm not asking for medical advice (it's not THAT serious an issue), I'm just curious if anyone at all has the same experience. So far I haven't met anyone who has, and Google hasn't been a great help either. So what's your experience with pain from finger nail length?
