As gross as it is, how fast will my pinky toenail grow back?!


Question: As gross as it is, how fast will my pinky toenail grow back?
I stubbed my pinky toe, and the nail turned black and fell off. underneath is clean, shiny layer of hard skin or something. is that my nail coming in, or just the protected part under my nail? How fast will it grow back? (my fingernails grow fast, I have to clip them ALL the time)

I know this is kinna gross, but any help would be appreciated! Shanks so much!

Hi Dear,

I have also been through the same situation twice. For the first time when my toe nail got hit against the ATM's glass door, it started bleeding heavily and the nail got away in coming two to three days. I had been to the doctor for the same and got treated accordingly. So, I got back my new toe nail as pretty as it was before and was damn happy.

The second time some heavy metallic thing hit the same toe nail of mine. This time, I had been to the another doctor and he said - 'Its normal, do not worry and your toe nail will be back, but will take some pretty good time'. So, on his advice, i did nothing but gave a chance to my toe nail to grow on itself. It is growing, but the process is very slow. 6 months have passed, but my nail hasn't grown fully to its length. Still some part is remaining and to my disappointment my toe nail is now more dark in color and has lost its prettiness.

So, in short, do not wait for your toe nail to grow on itself - because this will not help you to get your pretty nail back. It will grow, but the process will be very slow and frustrating. Better go and take medicines accordingly, to get your perfect toe nail. Without medicines, you will get your nail back but not as pretty as it was earlier and you shall repent, as I am repenting now...

Take Care and keep rocking :D
