Hi
Can anyone confirm the protocol around wearing gel nail polish during surgery.
I had conflicting advice and rather than bother hospital i thought I’d ask on here. At the moment I have gel colour on fingers and toes.
Do I need to remove both or can I leave a g colour on my toes also is it ok to have clear gel polish on my fingers.
TIA
Hi they said they only needed one finger to put the oxygen pulse monitor on but I had removed all mine apart from one toe which I couldn’t get off ! You can check with your nurse x
As soon as I was able I was back at the salon having them redone again can’t have bare toenails even in winter!
Hope you op goes well x
That’s exactly what I’m thinking, I feel scruffy with unpainted fingers and toes
