HI MY DAUGHTER LOST HER TOENAIL ON HER BIG TOE .SHE PLAYS SOCCER IS THERE ANYWAY TO PROTECT IT?
IT LOOKS BUMPY WILL IT COME ALL THE WAY OUT? THANK YOU CARLA
The remains of the old nail have been or are being pushed off by the new nail. That is the bump you noted. It is not generally that painful. It may take 6 months to 1 year for a new nail to grow out completely and then it could possibily be deformed. Just wait and see. If there are any edges snagging, just file them.Hope this helps!Vivian A DPM
