I would rather have them removed. YOu can have them removed and they go through the pain ONCE or you can leave them and they can risk getting them caught and go through that several times. I know they heal but to me it seems like that way would be sore alot longer. I have had my toenail ripped off before and it didn't hurt half as bad as when I had one half way ripped off..the rest of the nail that was left kept getting caught on my sock and that HURT..
But either way I think this is another one of those things that is a personal preference..
