Should I remove my thumbnail?!


Question:

Should I remove my thumbnail?

I smashed my thumb about two weeks ago. I can tell I'm going to lose the nail. I think if I were to pry on it, that it would come off. Should I leave it, and just let it happen? Or, should I help it out a little? Which is best for future growth?


Answers:

it'll come off on it's own. try not to play with it too much until then. i seriously don't understand why so many people on here advise a doctor or a trip to the er for every little cut and scrape. you definitely want to keep the site clean before and after the nail comes off.
