    Default Has your big toenail fallen off?

    In a dance related injury I lost my toenail, the podiatrist to expose to as much sunlight as possible and that "it should grow back in 6 months." 6 months!
    Has this happened to anyone else?

    Yep.

    It does grow back, don't worry. I know it hurts like a bitch right now, but the skin will eventually desensitize. I would paint the skin so unless you were really looking closely, nobody could tell I was missing a nail.

    Yeah I have....Had a manhole cover dropped on mine. 6 months sounds about right. Kittys right it will stop hurting and desensitize soon.

    Not the big one but,I lost my baby toe nail about 2 months ago, its growing back nicely though. It turned black and hurt like hell before it finally fell off, i was too chicken to pull it off myself. I've been taking supplements that have helped it grow back. Like the other ladies said no one even notices.

    Are the other toes "adult" toes? It's 4:01am, and I'm on SW, what better to do than mess with the beautiful Farrah Holiday

    I've lost a toenail too, it grew back pretty quick actually, probably less than 6 months for me.

    Yeah I lost both of my big toe nails at different times from soccer. I just wore cute girlie socks or stockings. It did take forever for mine to grow back..

    Yep. I've lost a big toenail before too. It's really not that big of a deal. It's quite a shock when it happens, but after a while, you'll get used to it, and once the nail falls off, no one will really notice.

    In fact, often, by the time the old nail falls off, the new one has already started to grow back in. Before you know it, you'll have a new toenail.

    Don't stress...just take care of your peds

    This sounds kinda like a rite of passage. I haven't had mine fall off, but it cracked down the middle while I was doing stage work. It took a while to grow back, but it's ok now.

    Poor lil toenails.

    My big toenail fell off two months ago after I stubbed it really hard, and only a tiny bit of it has grown back. I usually wear boots at work, so no one sees it anyway. But when I do wear heels, I paint the skin with a little bit of nail polish so that you can't tell my toenail is missing. No one has noticed so far.

    Toenails? I've lost nails as well. Lost both my thumbnails in door jamming related incidents, lost my left index fingers nail (and had to get half the finger sewn back on!) in a rather nasty door related incident.
    And stubbed my big toe on a door and lost that too.

    doors hate me

    Nails grow back in about a month but toenails take that much longer.
    In my experience nobody notices, dont even notice the big scar on my finger unless i tell the story
