Toenail Injury Time-Lapse Regrowth
Vložit
- čas přidán 18. 08. 2024
- On May 15th 2015, I tore my toenail completely off when I misjudged jumping from one rock to another at the beach. I wasn't sure it would ever grow back as the scab kept getting smaller and smaller but there was no indication that anything was replacing it. Eventually a nail started to reform.
Being a surfer I was of course going to surf on it every day. The booties didn't hurt too bad and I'd put on a layer of Neosporin, some gauze, and then a Band-aid, and then go surf. After surfing I'd take of the Band-aid and let it breath and dry out. Then I would reapply the Neosporin, the gauze and the Band-aid. Then repeat the next day. After two weeks, I stopped using the Neopsorin.
NOTE: Do not use rubbing alcohol or hydrogen peroxide. Those two things just damage the tissue. Use soap and water and wash gently.
I tried to take a photo every day but as it got better it was easy to forget. This shows a 79 day recovery process which is faster than I thought it would take. It's not finished yet, but I would call the regrowth a success.
who came here because your toenail came off
I assume most do judging from the comments.
Me
I'm wondering how long it will take for a funky fungusy toenail to grow out disease free. It's not real bad, but I'm just starting to get serious about working on it.
Fungus is tough, because if the fungus isn't eradicated completely it just keep living in the toenail. That's why some people eventually have fungus infected toenails surgically removed, so they can start fresh.
I stubbed my toe so hard that most of my toenail came off. Will it grow back in a month or two?
Someone’s gonna be walking we’re those rocks we’re and find your toe nail and be like “wow I found a shell I’m keeping this forever!”
Hah! That would be the best!
Lmfaoooo
LOL. 😂
where those rocks were* 😅
Oh geez I commented this a while ago but the grammar 😂😂 sorry I promise I know the difference between where we’re and were
@@kaelaroemhild1510 hahah its ok.
I know this video is old but there's literally no videos that does this time lapse with what they personally use to treat your toes.
My big toe just went up and had to take it out myself. Thank you for the video and comfort, makes me less nervous.
Good luck. A big toe can take a full year to grow back completely so as long as it's not red and swollen from infection, just hang in there.
"I blasted my toenail clean off. Never found it." LOLOL
He looked tho
The body has amazing abilities to repair itself! 🙂
vonzigle because we were a titan
vonzigle it's like doctor who
wow my Baby brother loosed his fingernail in the middle finger
Colonel Soldier my nephew somehow in the gap between the door injured himself we thought it hadn't come off and they would put it back but at the hospital they gave local and as soon as the tried to remove it came off it self he's just 1 he didn't even cried when his finger was bleeding crazy..
Thank God cuz I thought mine would never grow back
This was really reassuring, thank you. I had an accident while walking up some stairs about two months ago. My big toe nail went in the direction it is not supposed to, up. The surgeon at the ER cut off about half the nail and let the rest of it sit. Whenever I asked any healthcare professionals if my nail would grow back, they would say they didn’t know. Now I’m a little more reassured.
I just pulled the last bit of it, which had been very loose for weeks, from the nail bed (it’s way dead and didn’t hurt at all). From looking at how your nail grew back, I think about 5 millimeters have already grown back, so that makes me happy.
As long as the Matrix is intact, the nail will grow back. The Matrix is kind of like a hair follicle for nails. It sits pretty far under the cuticle and it's the "root" of the nail.
was having a panic attack after my fingernail fell off thinking it was gone forever and this really reassured me thank god for people like you who share these things it really helped💗💗💗
This made me feel so weak.
I never knew anyone else got like that, I thought it was only me. I didn't do it in this video but some things like big gashes or limbs ripping, just nasty things, they don't really gross be out, but some make me feel weak and it's like I lose all my arm strength to grasp something hard.
Sara Alcaraz ya me too
My whole nail just randomly fell off so I thought I looked this up and see if my nail would grow back, I was kinda worried, but when my nail fell off it didn’t bleed or anything so that’s good
Sara Alcaraz Im actually having what the are having right now. But my nail didn't come off, yet
Sinisterly Majestic Did you have to apply medicine?
How much time it take to your nail to grow?
I had my left big toenail removed by a doc today, coz I slammed it on the door. I normally panic so much and I have a low threshold of pain. I am having a sleepless night browsing abt it's recovery, worrying if it would ever grow back. Your video gives me hope, even if it's going to take more time than yours. Now I'm finally smiling and going back to sleep a bit relaxed than before. Thank you 😊
You're welcome!
Hello Deepika! Same thing happened with me. Could you tell how long did it take to regrow your toenail? I hope you read this!
@@varsha9794 it took almost a month.. not more than that for me.. i was surprised.. don't worry you'll be alright too.. 😊 it wasn't painful as I thought it would be.. believe me as this comes from a person with no tolerance of pain 😂
@@varsha9794 i even had a badminton match after a month or so.. i played barefoot and it wasn't painful ❤️😊 just don't do one mistake that I did.. i am a teacher and a married woman who has to cook for my family standing hours together both at home and work.. thinking that I'm making it less painful , i didn't stand properly as I thought it would put pressure on the growing nail. This changed my standing posture a lot and it was painful in the foot as I'm overweight.. don't do this mistake.. or atleast gradually change ur posture by standing and walking properly
@@DeepikaMohanbabuHere hi! i also lost my big toe nail last week and was wondering how you took care of yours? ty
thank you so much for sharing this :) just lost my big toenail and this video has helped keep my anxious thoughts at bay by reassuring me that there’s hope to not be toenail-less forever with the help of proper care (and a lot of patience of course)
Keep in mind a big toes can take 6 months to a year. But it will grow back if the matrix is intact (most likely it is)
My doctor said it will be about 12-18months. 😒 I'm only on day 4
@@jamesf2697 thought i’d you give an update as to provide some insight, but 3 months have passed and my nail has grown back halfway so far :)
@@hifrenesi mine is already halfway as well!!!
Mine is gone it’s been 2 1/2 weeks I’m dying to have it back NOW 🥲
I followed what you did in this video l for a relative, and his toe finally healed just fine! Almost the whole nail came off but not the whole thing. He let it stay attached until it one day naturally fell off during the healing process. I’m watching your video again to show a different relative how the healing process works!
Awesome! Glad this video is helpful.
@Arjun Mehta I have a question
actually in my case it is also similar to your relatives case i also have my bottom part there so how much did it took to heal?
@@ke1echn3r hey there! I had replied but I guess CZcams took it down because I sent you a link to a type of bandage that worked really well. What I had written was that even though it’s been a few years, off the top of my head, it took about 60 days to start looking like it was going to become a fully normal nail again. Similar to this video, actually. You can see that in this video, it is pretty much fully better by day 80 ish. Now, you wouldn’t even know there ever was a nail injury to begin with! In our situation, the nail was almost completely ripped off and just hanging by the cuticle area. I don’t remember if a doctor suggested we could have it removed, but either way we ended up leaving the nail on. Neosporin would be applied on the skin underneath the nail regularly to keep it disinfected, and I would highly recommend any “self adhering bandage” or wrap. It allows you to gently wrap the toe to keep it clean and protect it, and it remains securely without getting undone. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
@@Coolarj10 thank you very much 🙏
hope so my nailtoe heals well
I watched this because I am having a painful toenail removed today and wanted to make sure it would grow back haha! Your fourth toe must have been damaged too. Interesting how it had a ridge at the damage point and just grew out. I hope mine will come back as quickly. Thanks for the video!
+Healthy and Loving Life I would assume so. My was ripped completely off by accident. Having your nail removed intentionally by a professional should help things a bit.
Did it grow back??
@Ritesh LS i got my toenail ripped once , it took me 3 months to fully healed
StarsStorms99 I got my big toe nail ripped out by a doctor 3 months ago due to an injury and there still isn’t any sign of a nail growing back is this bad
I too had toe nail removed. And doctor told me to put vaseline but I don't think it's working. Its already been 22 days and still it hasn't been healed. Can you please tell me what kind of ointment are you using??
My big toenail ripped off a few days ago and watching this video is helping me stay sane while I deal with the pain
Fantastic!
Hey how is your toenail!?? My big toenail got ripped 90%( by accident) and the dr had to remove the rest. Hurts so bad for days! Top ten worse pains ever!😩
My tiny toenail basically is injured just now as bad as was shown in the video. This sucks man. Even if it doesn't really hurt. I've had it happen with my other toe.
@@tvalue4618 hi did you big toenail regrew now?
@@dennerkeithsilva5855 hi. Yep! Been grew back after only 8 months not 18 months like the dr said. I’m so happy because another foot dr had me thinking it wouldn’t attach but nope...it’s good as new! Did you lose a toenail?
This video is so informative!! I ripped off my second toe nail completely about a month ago. It sucked. My healing progress seems very similar to yours - it’s giving me hope I’ll have a new nail back eventually 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 thanks for sharing!
After how many days u became able to walk?
Did it come back?
Wow a few delayed responses on my part! Sorry! Yes it came back but it was a full month before I saw a hint of my new nail regrowing. I could walk after a few days but I was wearing an old pair of Ugg boots to go outside. A few weeks until normal shoes. Now I’m totally normal and it’s a story / pictures i share with people if I want to gross them out for a laugh.
Thank you for sharing this! I stubbed my pinky toe yesterday and it ripped off from beyond the cuticle with just a corner still attached. I thought I'd be ok, but it wouldn't stop bleeding after 3 hours, i went to the ER, they numbed be and removed it entirely, and sent me home with some antibiotics. As expected, it's swollen today, feels REALLY weird, and hurts so bad when I clean it and reapply the gauze and bandaging. Non stick gauze has been a lifesaver!!!
Thank you very much for sharing. This video is actually very helpfull to understand the healing process and manage expectations of how long the healing will take. My 5 year old just ripped off his finger nail playing with rocks at the beach. Cheers 🤙🏼🤙🏼
That's exactly why I made it. To give people hope. I thought my nail may never grow back but it did. Just takes a long time.
Day 10 just looked like it became worse. But thanks for making this, a part of my toenail is gone and now I know it will heal.
Yep. It can look worse before it gets better. At first I thought me toenail would just disappear forever.
Thank you for sharing. I’m a mom and my daughter got her toe nail ripped off by a shopping cart at the store. I have been so terrified about how bad or long it’s gonna be till it’s back and this put my mind at ease. Thank you
You're welcome!
Thank you for your research man. One guy stepped on my toe nail and got really bruised. Today after the shower and 3 weeks after my injury my nail came clean off. I notice a new nail is growing underneath. There is hope.
That's perfect. You never had to deal with raw exposed skin.
Did almost exactly the same thing today. Rock took it off while walking by a river. Glad to see that my nail will probably grow back
i watched this video since some of my toenail came off and this makes me feel better
Thanks a bunch! I just ripped my toenail off my right big toe for the second time. Last time was ‘94. First time it didn’t grow back very well but maybe it will this time.
Today I jammed my foot under a door and my toe nail came off completely. I don't know if it will grow back but this helped me visualize the healing process. Thank you!
How is your toe nail now?
It grew back completely! It does look a little different from before but only if you look at it closely. It healed exactly like in the video.
Im here because a hand jack at work hit my toe nail and literally lift off my nail. I lefted alone for bout two weeks then notice air was on the bottom so i slowly removed it with my heart on my throat. Found out a thin layer of nail was already started to dry up and re grow. This vid gives me hope that my nail will grow just fine. Thank u for loading up even doe at day 50 i was loosing all hope but notice it was just getting really healthy looking after day 54. So thanks for giving me hopes. Been putting neusporin on it. 🥰
You're welcome!
I literally just did this the other day to my pinky finger and lost over half of my nail. It’s interesting to see what the healing process looks like!
Ty for posting - my 1 year old lost her big toe nail from a sparking water can that crushed it off and out of the nail bed. Same thing happened to my son on his fingers 2 years ago and I forgot how long the re-growth took and what it looked like. My daughter's nail is about 3/4 weeks out. Looking about the same as this video. I have hope!
This is a great documentation! Thank you!
but u said PROBABLY it will grow back...oh shit it gives me the tense wut if it aint growin back!
_xXDOGGISHEAGLE GAMINGXx_ If it doesn't grow back you have a great conversation piece when people notice one of your toes is just all skin.
_xXDOGGISHEAGLE GAMINGXx_ one time I stubbed my pinkie toe and it came right off... it healed eventually but the nail never grew back, the nail bed was just to damaged. So now I just don’t have a nail on my pinkie toe. 😊
The only way it doesn't grow back is if you rip the nail heart out of the toe, which is extremely painful and I do not recommend
Blake Blast what is the "nail heart"? My nail on my toe has a slight damage on the on the side. I don't know if I cut a bit too much to that side or if it was fragile. Though it's giving me a bit of anxiety about it's healing. There is no pain, though if I touch that small spot it feels more sensitive then the rest of my skin.
One time I dropped my laptop on my toe and it left a really bad bruise I had to cut my toenail off to remove the blood that was stuck now my toenail is all nice and healthy again :3
Celebrity Videos Production omg sorry
Pastel Sheep I was working and some boxes I was carrying fell and dropped on my toes. They got bruised and there's blood underneath my two big toes. I didn't like a hole in my toe to leak the blood out but now my toes and black and the blood is dried now underneath my toenails :/ what should I do? I don't want to have my toe nails looking black forever, should I cut my toenails and clean off the dry blood or what? Help!
Is it because you raged at phantom forces?
You didn't have to cute the nail off! I tripped and it made the underside of my nail bleed, it just dried and grew out.
@@cavitiorism9133 My finger got good and mashed in the bolt of a rifle... Its regrowing now. At first it was all black with blood (and so effing painful - I should have used a red-hot paper clip to remove the blood when it was not dried out), then I was able to scrape the dried blood out from under it a bit as it had gotten raised. But as the nail grew the nail that had been raised by the blood began to flake off from the back. I had to cut it off with a razor so it stopped flaking off... Below it was a nail starting to regrow. Pretty amazing stuff honestly. Looks like half a nail has regrown under the old raised nail that I cut away.
Amazing how the body works
My toe got caught under high school stadium bleachers. Then my toenail died so it started falling off. Watched this video for advice. Thank you so much very informational.
Thank u for this video..Both my big toenails had to be removed due to ingrown toenail issue and i was worried about how it looks…plus I’m a diabetic…After watching your video i felt somewhat relieved..
If it was removed by a doctor I'm sure the matrix is intact. That's the "root" of the nail. Ab s long as you have the matrix, growth will happen. Keep on top of your diabetes! Save those toes!
I got my big toenail partially ripped, only about a third of the nail got separated from the flesh, but almost instantly the complete under nail got filled with purple blood. I cleaned the toe with alcohol and peroxide to remove the dried blood that got out and used band aids for 3 days. Some of the blood was pretty dried and wouldn't come off because I didn't wanted to scrub hard because it hurt. Then one day I woke up to find my dog making a thorough cleaning with his tongue ¬¬ It was sparkling clean, so I had to use some more disinfectant again XD Now I can completely bend my toe and the flesh line is completely visible under the nail when light hits it; so I guess it'll take a couple of months for the new nail to grow and re-attach that flesh.
Awesome story!
She didn't say if she soaked it in alcohol or anything. That's probably why she still had dirt in it.
ChimChim ate my Taesty kookies I tore my fingernail off and my doctor said not to soak it
Soaking it in alcohol would damage the already sensitive tissues, bc alcohol has the ability to dry out and kill those cells
my dog bit me and hit that exact toenail, the nail broke in half horizontally but I left it in place, the swelling pushed the nail all over, it was bloody but it didn't hurt any day. Now, after 40 days the entire nail is coming off but there is a corner that is still attached, I will keep the piece in place until it falls off. It's so disgusting but thanks for the video lol
Ouch!
I lost my toe nail 23 days ago. It’s funny cause it’s the same toe as yours but I was jumping off a cliff and hit it on a rock. I kept swimming lol. Anyways I’m glad I found this video cause I now know there’s hope.
Definitely hope!
Thank you for sharing. Had my big toe nail removed a couple of weeks ago and I wanted to see how it’s supposed progress.
You're welcome. Heal well!
How's it doing? I had mine removed today and now I'm freaking out that it'll grow back deformed or not grow back at all.

@@badmoni_ mine too, did it ever grow back?
@@huggyrose18 Did your nail come off completely and did it grow back?
Toenail: *Ight imma head out.*
Walking to bed from bathroom and walked into my 12 pound medicine ball just right and now, finally, my pinky toe nail which I surgically just removed myself with a knife, couldn’t find clippers, finally after a week, brought me here! Thanks. I’m a nurse and even I’m worried if it will come back because I’m lover of gorgeous sandals living in AZ and I’d rather just throw he whole toe away then walk around with gorgeously painted toe nails minus one😂😢
Thank you for sharing.. It gives me hope.. I had an accident at my workplace that caused avulsion of my middle toe nail too..
My toenail suffers fungus (the toenail looks yellowish) and the right bottom edge of the nail is deeply ingrown. The toenail doesn't look so serious and crazy, but it's basically dead. I went to local doctor who gave my the antibiotics and some yellow liquid. It helped to heal the pain and prevent the formation of pus aside, but it didn't solve my main problem. I plan to visit the specialist and I'm thinking of nail removal, but I 'm afraid it will look weird and ugly after regrowth. 😐
I say go for it. Your toenail is junk right now. How could it come back worse? The odds are it will come back better. And at the very least, not infected.
Mine came back triple thick after removal a year later, all because of fungus, so I had it removed again and acid poured on it, permanent removal, so it will not grow back ever, hopefully 80% of the time the Dr. says it works or it will come back and can come back badly and so thick you cannot cut it yourself, but need a Podiatrist .
@@shicoff1398
I heard hydrogen peroxide kills fungus
@@GospodinNelson I don't know what acid the Podiatrist put on it, but it was painful when the shot wore off, it takes 5 or 6 weeks to fully heal, but the acid kills the root and it later looks Ok, and is covered with skin I guess, don't care, want it gone forever .
@@shicoff1398 That is hardcore! Yes, hopefully it won't grow back. We don't really need toenails anyway. I've yet to use my toenails to help climb a tree or fend off an attacker.
Awesome video! Ride of the Valkyries perfect melody for this time lapse :-)
I thought so too!
I'm watching because my pinky toenail broke and I ripped it off to avoid irritation and infections. There no pain and there was very minimal blood. Good to know it'll take a few months
Good move. Most people wouldn't do that., even though a loose, barely hanging on toenail, is more of risk.
Thank you for the video! I have been searching for a video like this. Cut the toe nail too deep and dirt got trapped inside so I needed to have it partially removed. Hopefully it grows back normal. Fingers crossed.
I'm sure you'll be fine. A doctor is not going to remove the nail matrix (the root that the nail grows from)
the human body is truly amazing
i just did this to my big toenail last night i was a sleep and some how slammed it on the wall.. my big toe nail peeled up it was so gross and was bleeding for a while... it still hurts alot.
My big toe nail came off when I was 10...
So earlier that week I had cut it down really _really_ short by accident (that's a non-starter) and then I was just coming out of the shower and when I opened the door it slid right on my toenail, pushing it down and making a massive slit and _cracking open_ my toenail from the pressure. If that wasn't bad enough, it cut down the nail even more to a point were the pain was unbearable (especially for a 10 year old). AND TO TOP IT ALL OFF, that just happened to be the toenail which was ingrown. So the pain was 10x more dreadful. And it bled so much. So freaking much.
There's my story!
myranda wilkins I hit my small pinky on my door and the nail raised upp and is falling it hurts
Wow, your story is my story but instead of the wall it was the door for me. I’m currently watching my big toenail grow back, it’s a little shy under halfway there. Did yours grow back fully and did it connect on the sides properly? Lol just curious
2 days ago i had my toenail ripped due to injury, it was hurting very much, then my mother boiled mustard oil with some garlic pieces, and poured that hot oil directly to the red part where the nail is supposed to be....can you feel what happened then... i screamed aloud. but after few minutes, there was no pain at all. its just been 3 days and im running like a mad man....
Sounds like you killed the nerve endings.
I broke my toenail so this is lowering my blood pressure and making me calm
My friend had a basket ball bounced on his thumb and after a week his nail fell off but it grew back
the music killed me 😂😂😂👌
I have had same experience, luckily I found my broken off nail. I put it back in same place and got it bandaged. It got superficially attached again. I have to now patiently wait for new one to grow back and take its place.
I was paranoid that mine doesn't look the way it should after a few days, but this helped a ton! I'll definitely use this as a reference
Yeah, a few days is barely into the healing process.
My toenail is quite dead and its nearly coming off. I have school in a few weeks so I need to wear shoes. If it falls off, what shall I do?
Tekkerz Girl cover it up and keep it clean to prevent infections.
if your toenail is dead and it falls off it wont hurt, so you wont have a problem with it hurting when wearing shoes. Just try and make sure you cover it up so it wont get infected and clean it.
Probably wouldn't hurt to consult with your doctor too.... I had no choice but to call my doctor the next day after my big toenail got half ripped off. Mine was still very much alive and hurt like bloody heck when I jammed my toe in the bottom edge of my bedroom door.... Its been almost 2 months now and still doesn't feel close enough to being back to itself. But a thin layer of a hardening that it doesn't hurt anymore and doesn't feel needed for bandaging or neosporin....
Couthino Cules last year trampoline accident at my friends and I lost my toenail to my big toe so for a moth or so I still wore shoes but was really careful about it and if you can't wear shoes get crunches
tatum what if it is dead will it grow back
I recently removed my pinkie nail 2 weeks ago, it wasnt a pain but it was my first time removing it in the present. My nail is now recovering, I could see the wound or the thing that is covering it is removing but im still wondering if that bump on my nail will go away :P
This was so helpful and put my mind at ease, just ripped off my pinky fingers nail a couple days ago
This was such a great video, thank you!!! I need to show this to a family member who is in a similar situation. Question: did you apply neosporin directly on the nail bed (the bloody looking skin where the nail bed is supposed to be)? I'm considering that, or just having the foot dipped in a hydrogen peroxide/water mixture on a regular basis to keep the area disinfected. Thank you!! Glad it healed.
Oops just saw you mentioned to not use hydrogen peroxide. Okay, thanks for the tip. But should the neosporin be applied directly on top and all over the bloody skin on the nail bed?
NO hydrogen peroxide. It damages tissue and makes it worse. Just put a glob of Neosporin on the open wound, put an band-aid on. New application of Neosporin and band-aid at least once a day.
Clay Butler thank you so much! Will do
How long till you let it air dry? Got my toe nail removed 5 days ago
@@lilbookarina89 Hey sorry I don't think I understood what you meant. Are you referring to air drying after showering, after applying neosporin, or something else?
My little toe nail is falling off soon
Hopefully it won't be painful cuz this is the first toe nail I'm losing
( plus I'm just 11 )
If it's falling off by itself it shouldn't hurt. It might be sensitive underneath to pressure though because the skin is so new.
thanks
I'm 13 my big toe nail coming off
Shix Lo The Crusader omg mines falling off did it hurt :((((
I've had 2 toenails come off
one when I was 4
one when I was 10
the first one was my pinky. it didn't hurt at all.
second one was the big toe anD IT HURT SO MUCH BECAUSE EARLIER THAT WEEK I ACCIDENTALLY CUT IT EXTREMELY SHORT AHHHHHHHH
Thanks for this. A drawerr fll on my big toe and I just had to have the nail removed. I've been worried about how it would grow back and if it would get caught on things as it grows. Couldn't find anything showing what it actually looks like growing back!
A big toe takes a long time to fully grow back. Usually 9-12 months. But as long as it's not red, painful and swollen ( signs of infection) you're good. The new nail will just slowly appear over time.
Thanks for posting this, I have a toenail that has fungus that I was thinking of having my doctor remove the toenail and worried it would not grow back. This helped me with deciding.
If a professional does it it will definitely grow back. They'll be careful not to remove the nail bed.
I just dropped a jug of water on my big toe 6 days ago, and I had a surgery to remove it 3 days ago. I hope it can regrow this quick. Somehow.
me too 😣
My toe nail is falling of.. it all started when i was playing football and my shoes was Very very small for my feet but i had to play for championships after the game my toe nail (thumb side) was really swollen then after a few weeks its all dead and the whole nail is coming off then i watched this video and i realized it takes that long to grow 😞 plus i want to wear closed shoes
Yes. A long time. But the sensitive phase where you can't really wear shoes is not that long (2-4 weeks).
I surfed everyday on mine after wrapping it in gauze, but booties are much softer than shes and you're only standing up maybe 30 seconds at a time.
Clay Butler I'm scared it's happening to me it's painful 😖
same omg and its my big toe!!
I guess every soccer player will have some things going on with their nail I have the same case and I just found it out like 15 mins ago now im shaking as hell and might have a panic attack soon :)

Amazing Sky same
The same thing happened but with my ring finger 😭😭
me too 😣
now same here
how many ur nails grown completly ?
and how many days it will be pain ?
I smashed my middle finger and it hurt so bad
Do not apply neosporin every day, just the first days to avoid infection, not for weeks!
Depends on the situation. I was in the ocean surfing every day right after the injury. I need more than a couple days because the wound would sort of reopen over and over again. All surfers get this same issue. Cuts and open wounds take extra long to heal if you surf everyday and the potential for permanent scarring is much higher. For people who don't do things like surfing, a few days of Neosporin will be sufficient.
Thank you, just watched this to see what I'm in for. The doctors had to remove my big toe. 😒 so I have been taking pictures as well.
Lol when I was about 6-7 I dropped a huge brick on my foot and my big toenail fell off completely, that hurt like hell
My small toenail fell off and it grew back in 7 days?
Are you sure? That doesn't seem possible, unless it was growing underneath a detached and dead toe naill for weeks beforehand.
Clay Butler Probably thats the case
Just cut your pinky toe clean off. You don't need it anyway. :)
im pretty sure we all pick off our nails, so i had a long nail on my pinkie toe so i picked it off but half of my nail came off :/ im scared it wont grow back :c
me too
I lost a toenail about a month ago. no sign of growth yet but skin healed ok and im good to wear closed toed shoes. no pain at all anymore
My toe got destroyed when it came in contact with my door. How it happened is that I was coming out of my room to get a drink and when I opened the door I was too close and my toe was just the perfect height to hit the bottom of the door.
Ouch.
2 months 19 days wut a long regeneration
It's usually supposed to take a year.
True. I was really surprised it grew back that fast. I understand a big toe will take about a year.
Clay Butler how many days it will be pain ?
Clay Butler Can we eat all Foods ? or we make restrict to it ?
This is Daniel Bryan's intro music
It a great choice for a wrestler. The Ride of the Valkyries makes you feel powerful.
This honestly makes me feel so good I’m damaged my nail about a month ago and I was worried because it was my big toe so I’m hoping by august I should at least have a lil nub 🤞🏽
Love the background music this helped me because I got my big toe slammed by a door and I’m losing it but it’s still hanging on … I’m hoping the new nail will grow underneath.
It may be best to complete the removal. The nail won't reattach. It's now vulnerable to getting torn off accidentally and more susceptible to getting it infected. If it doesn't come of easily with a little tug then maybe a foot doctor can remove. A large toenail can take up to a year to grow back. So that's a long journey with a dead toenail still attached.
@@claybutler yes actually the damage to my toe happened a few days before Halloween & on the 14th of this month it fell off completely! Underneath it looks like a nail is already growing back halfway! I’m really excited and it looks fine :)
Lmao, who rip their toenail off and won’t even found it, just walked away in pain. Didn’t even bother on going to find it.
Today I fell in ground while playing and my finger nail came off 😭😩..I hope it will grow soon😪 waiting for my new nail😃
Hang in there and keep it clean!
@@claybutler 👍
I busted my toenail several months ago. It was really bad, but not totally dead, and it was still attached at the quick. However, it seems that a new nail is forming underneath it while the old one is still trying to revive itself. As a result, the old nail remains attached at the base but grows outward and detached from the the bed from there, due to the fact that the new nail is always underneath it. I almost wanna rip out the old nail, but it’s still alive at the base, so that’d hurt a lot. I keep hoping the old nail will give up and die, making space for the new one, but in the meantime, it’s just ugly asf.
Thanks for that story. It's a great visual. The old nail will ultimately be pushed out by the new one. I don't really think it's "alive". Just attached
I feel so uncomfortable with injuries on nails, it makes me wince at the photos and stuff.
Unfortunately, I got injured exploring a stream of a river with a crazy uncle of mine, he even pushed down his thumb on my torn toenail as if it was going to glue back, some folks are not right in the head.
The accident tho was totally my fault as I followed him, and I am very clumsy, we were surrounded by tree branches and roots, eventually I hit some root and I felt like there were a splinter under my toenail, when I saw the damage I was very angry at myself for ignoring my senses for not turning back earlier.
Now I'm stuck with half of a toenail of my big toe for about 3 weeks.
Mine grew back in 5 weeks under my old nail. Today I fiddles with it and it came off easy. New nail looked so polished and nice lol.
What medication and precautions you took please tell
I have it right now and I'm scared it just started to swell on the right side and it kindove hurts. I ripped my nail of when it got annoying (NOT THE WHOLE THING JUST THE WHITE ONE) and the next day it started to hurt and now THIS.🙁
At when end when you said it will probably grow back took me out LOL,. My little toenail fell off to my knowledge there was no drama I just woke up one morning and it was hanging off a little and I’m hoping it grows back just fine
I wanted to be completely honest. If you destroy the matrix, it may never grow back. Fortunately the matrix will probably be still intact after losing a nail.
@tnnt05 for a while I thought I would just have skin as well. Which I was prepared to accept because I didn't think it'd be that bad not to have a toenail there.
Wow this is so good I’m working on a couple on other foot , and can’t leave it alone.when the bed starts I start pealing and don’t know the nail from the callous it looks like you filed a little in front of nail ,I have so much cuticle and callous thank you for this video it make me appreciate Gods idea with fiber
At one point I thought " I guess I'll just have skin there from now on!" I was surprised it grew back.
Thank goodness, there is hope for my pinky nail then…. thank you for making this, I feel better now….
Somehow watching this made me feel a bit better
My toe nail ca remove due to a pass trauma it had. Im about 23 days I was getting worried so I came here and saw this…my anxiety has reduced.
Clay. Could you describe the pain when you first had it?
I honestly don't remember completely. I do remember that I knew something happened to my toe and it did hurt. I think along the lines of hitting your shin on a coffee table. Then I looked down and realized my toenail was completely gone. So I took a photo.
Then I put some gauze wrap on it and a big bandaid and went surfing the next day. As long as I didn't hit the open wound, I really didn't feel much pain.
I watched this because mine it hanging by one piece of skin by the tip. It's bloody and somewhere between your two injured toes. I'm pretty sure it's going to fall off. It hurts with any movement.
I hope mine grows back. Hearing about the shoe thing is problematic. I'm in Maine, and it's snowing.
my nails falling off has been a big fear of mine and lucky me... my toenail from my big toe collided with the door and basically lifted some of it off the nail bed. When I tell y'all I started freaking out cuz of the blood underneath my nail... I was also home alone and this had never happened to me so I was terrified. It's been 3 days since this happened and the toe nail only bleeds a bit at night from the sides bc im a terrible sleeper and its also purple but now I'm just waiting for it to come off.
Yep, waiting for it to fall off naturally is probably the best choice. Unfortunately I've never seen a nail reattach itself. So it will eventually come off but if it stays there long enough there might be a new nail growing underneath it.
What ended up happening with your toenail?
didnt think id come back to this video, but recently the back panel of a bookshelf came off while i was picking it up and smashed my toes, leading to not very fun times, so I've come here to see how it will look regrowing
Well, I'm glad you came back even if it's because of injury. Hopefully you'll look at my healing process and you'll feel much better about it.
@@claybutler i have felt much better about it! i would have loved to make a time lapse of it healing if i wasnt also in the middle of my finals, but alas some things take priority. im able to wear socks now which is nice. thank you for replying :)
I stubbed my toe and the top half of my toe came off. By the way do you trim any top layers cuz my doctor said it'll grow upwards and form layers
Mine is not as serious as this, but you can see some darkness from the blood underneath the toenail. Glad to know my whole toenail won't come off.
Just happened to my big toe while surfing in Mexico. Hoping it heals fast
Been there. Having always caught my long board by the skeg I had a sore with sand in it that ever healed. The Public Service Hospital in San Francisco 5 years after clean out the boil and wondered where the sand came from. Well....1974 to 1979 I lived in a VW Bus with my dog Punch after getting out of the military.
Yeah. Ocean water sure slows the healing process. The simplest cut takes at least twice as long to heal if you surf every day.
You changed dressing atleast twice a day??.... Bro you should have waited for atleast 2 days to change dressing
Not in my case. I surf every day. The dressing had to be changed. And if someone is exceciosing or showering every day, they need to do every day minimum. I think you are assuming someone is just sitting on the couch with their leg propped up.
My partner just has her ingrown toenails shaved off at the doctor's and they also recommended twice a day dressing changes.
This makes me feel much better about my big toenail. I ripped it off jumping into a truck bed . It hurt like a mother.
As long as the germinal matrix still there (most likely) it will grow back. That's kind of like the root or the seed of the nail. be patient. Big toenails can take 6 months or more to grow back.
The doctor said it will grow back!
