Will my toenail grow back?

Will my toenail fall? and if so, when will it do so and how long will it take for the nail to grow back?

• Last week I dropped a bed frame on my big toe. Immediately after this i went to a band rehearsal (which means two hours of standing). My nails were painted at the time so it wasn't until i took the polish off that i noticed that nail was a blueish-black color. The next morning i went to the doctor and he drilled a hole in my nail (with a paper clip!) and al the blood came out over the next few days. Now a week later, most of the pain is gone but it looks white, there is still a clearish liquid coming out of the hole, and the nail is starting to feel loose. Will i lose my nail? If so, when and how long will it take and how long will it take to grow back? 80% of my shoes show my big toes or all of them.

• Answer:

  you will loose it in a day or two. Unfortunately it will take months before your nail grows back in I'm guessing about 4 or 5
