If the split goes all the way to your nail bed, trim the tip to the edge of your finger and then wash your hands with antibacterial soap.

Once your hands are fully dry, go to your first aid kit and apply Neosporin to the damaged nail, followed by an adhesive bandage to protect from further damage.

Wear bandages for several days, changing them whenever they get loose, wet, or dirty, and always reapply Neosporin when changing the bandage.
