What happens when a toenail comes COMPLETELY off?

What happens if a toenail comes off COMPLETELY? like... the whole thing just comes off (i hit my toe and it came completely off)





will it ever grow back...? :S


if it will grow back, how long will it take to get back to lookin normal?What happens when a toenail comes COMPLETELY off?
It will grow back. I recommend that you see a doctor to prevent infection and/or an ingrown toenail. They hurt worse than your nail coming off.





The length of time it will take to grow back will vary from a few weeks to a few months. Depends on the speed of your nail growth. Toe nails grow 4x slower than fingernails, so don't freak out if it doesn't look like they are growing.





Because your toenail has been ripped out, it will most likely grow back thicker than it used to be to prevent the chances of it been ripped out again.





I hope your toe heals well again.





My brother stood on my toe a few years ago, like he stamped on it, and the nail doesn't grow properly anymore and it gets little lines and dents in it. It's kinda gross but it still grows.


Also when I was 13, I was goign to go get some milk in town, and when I got out of the car, I slammed the car door on my left index finger. It went all purple and the nail was half intact. Then the nail fell off and it looked disgusting underneath, it was all dried up blood. (I felt sick looking at it) It took a few weeks to grow back to full length, and it healed perfectly.What happens when a toenail comes COMPLETELY off?
It will be fine. A few years back I slammed my thumb in the car and the nail turned blue and fell off. When it fell off there was already a piece of nail under. I did not keep it covered or see a doctor and it came back fine. It grew back in probly 2 months.
it will take a long time for it to grow back....my toenail came off and it took it about a month for it to grow back.It will look normal but when its off it wont look normal but it will grow back in about a month
It will take a few weeks, even months to grow back completely. Go to your doctor to keep it form becoming ingrown. It may be crooks and not look normal ver again. See your doctor and keep it dry and covered. Ouchies!

Yes it will grow back.


Be careful not to injure it again.


For a few days,put a Band-Aid on it.


Also a little salt water wash will prevent infection and keep it clean.
Ask a doctor, but when I was young this happened, now I can't tell.





2 your second question, forever.
oooh that must hurt? and yeh it does grow back out.. but see the doctor on a regular basis because ingrowing toe nail hurts even worse (i had that)
