I'm also in hospital with little to do so why not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even simpler is getting a nurse to do it for you, as given your on crutches, how do you propose to bend down to cut your nails then ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 200 baht ones are better.... i think, just wondering if i could get away with a set for 100 baht and save a bit of cash as I have a good pair at home.

Oh, I see, that makes sense. Just seems a bit odd to start a thread about it.....then again, this is "General Topics" and sounds like you're a bit bored there. Hope it's nothing too serious and you're on the mend soon. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well what started off as a back problem has become a knee and thigh problem due to being injected with some kind of drug that my body is not taking to, i cant move my leg but can touch my toes no problem.

Johpa Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 After many decades of hanging out around Thailand I discovered, long ago actually, that nail clippers are one of those little items best to bring in-country on your own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagnabbit Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Don't buy them. I got some and accidentally cut off my leg with them I was lucky enough that my Thai wife (who I didn't meet in a bar) was able to staunch the bleeding by having her brother (who lives with us and is VERY close to her) cauterize the wound. I am now recovering but my wife seems happy enough with me in hospital and her brother taking care of things at home. Sometimes I feel so blessed to live in Thailand.
