unless you damaged the nail matrix (the growth area at the based of the nail) it should eventually grow back in a month or two. nails grow at variable rates from person to person so there is no way to predict the exact time. just continue to take care of it protect it from re-injury and your new nail should be good as new in a month or two.
how long does it take for a nail to grow back on finger? . i caught my finger in the jeep door and took antibiotics for 7 days it is better but the nail seems to be half on. part if it was taken off at the dr. so the rest is lifting and it is very strange and the soft tissue is coming up filling the space the nail was removed. when does it fully heal? i am putting ointment on it and soaking it in epsom salt. please help! thank you.
