What to do about cracked toenail?

My toenail cracked near the base, please help.?

  • My toenail (on my big toe) cracked close to the base. I can lift it up a little but i'm afraid. The crack is also widening (reaching about half way across) I'm afraid if I lift it, blood will start coming out. What should I do? I never had this problem before. It looks as if someone took a scissor and cut from the bottom of my toenail toward the center(trying to provide a visual)

  • Answer:

    Mine was worse, the whole nail including the base, came out while I kicked a football barefoot. Solution: Just ignore it. It will degenerate and fall off as you bathe, etc. A new nail will grow after some time. It took me about 4 months for a whole new nail to grow back to decent length
