LaToya Jackson was released from Cedars-Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles Wednesday, after she suffered infection-like symptoms on her left hand following a trip to the nail salon.

The 55-year-old sister of the late Michael Jackson tweeted to more than 74,000 followers: “At Cedars-Sinai Hospital N BH. Woke up in unbearable pain! Index finger on my left hand is completely swollen & on fire"

“Had my nails done, I wonder if that has anything to do with it?” she wrote. (This is a plausible explanation for what triggered the pain, as she could have suffered a bad reaction to the chemicals/procedures involved in getting one’s nails done.)

After thanking her followers for their sympathetic outpouring, LaToya said she “left the hospital,” but was still in pain.

I used to get acrylic nails, and suddenly became allergic to the acetone (or acrylic), and my fingers would blister and hurt like crazy when I had them done. I tried the "silk wrap" method instead, and that works and doesn't blister.

I knew a woman who was a diabetic, and she died from a manicure infection.

cheap manicures with dirty utensils will cause a fungus that will go to the bone. i saw a woman who's index finger looked like it had been through a meat grinder because of it. the nail never healed. talk about nasty!!!
