I've been twisting this thing for bloody ages and it would not budge.
Tried cutting it off with a new Stanley blade but it caused too much bleeding.
About an hour I was fed up with it so I grabbed my pliers out my tool box, carefully gripped tightly between the jaws and started twisting it.
After a while something was weird. I could turn it 5 or 6 times in one direction ??
I then gave it a steady pull and it felt like a vein or something was coming out.
Just checked it out and took this pic.
The root is about 12 mm long and the rest of it is a large mole I just pulled out the side of my neck.
