Will my toenail grow back?

Will my toenail grow back ?

  • I got a surgery a couple months ago on both of my big toenails. It was for ingrown toenails, and they put acid on each side so that they wouldn't grow back on the side of my nail, to get rid of the ingrown toenail. (But the rest of my nail is still supposed to grow.) Earlier today, someone stepped on one of the toenails, and half of it broke off. It bled a little bit but not much at all. Is this a sign that the toenail is dead and won't grow back ? I'm not quite sure what to do, but I scheduled an appointment with my doctor. I can put a picture up if needed, I guess. Thank you. (:

It is a toenail or foot specialist you need to see. A Chiropodist or a Podiatrist. Accidents happen that is why you should protect the toe while the new nail grows back. Have it seen to by a professional as complications can arise and it can affect your walking for the rest of your days. Tip, wear good shoes with plenty of room around the toes, this will also help prevent another ingrown toenail.
