No toe nail

Viethulk4 · 04-08-2007, 12:14 AM

Couple of month ago, I drop a piece of a desk on my toe. It got all black, and evetually, i pulled it off. It got a bump on it now, kinda numb. Anyone have any thought, idk if it swell up or if it suppose to be like that

Viethulk4 · 04-08-2007, 09:36 PM

hey i was at a skiing camp in BC a few summers ago and from all the big jumps both of my toenails turned black and fell off, a few days after the tissue underneath turned hard like a thin nail untill the real toenail grew back in.

dont worry about it carry on with your life as normal

Viethulk4 · 04-09-2007, 05:56 PM

damn.. that freaking sucks, 6 MONTHS

bbdude · 04-09-2007, 06:02 PM

is it that long really?? :|

Viethulk4 · 04-09-2007, 06:06 PM

well, i think it pretty long to recover from a injury. And keep in mind, I can't really work out when I'm like this

Frostwick · 04-09-2007, 10:26 PM

are you shure you didnt break your toe because i could do whatever i felt like with no toe nail, it didn't impact me at all

Viethulk4 · 04-09-2007, 10:39 PM

well, i got flat feet too. And all the comment above say dont workout and stuff. What do you think frostwick

Frostwick · 04-10-2007, 01:00 AM

if your TOE not the nail, if your TOE is intact and you can walk keep on doing what you were doing before

i had a 45lb plate drop on my big toe and kind of a diagonal accross the nail, it fell off and grew back super ugly... thick, curved up and looks like a sea shell.. hard to trim. are you grossed out yet.. true story.. it sucks but i still do everything but if someone steps on that toe it hurts like a bit#$.. lol.. it has been 15 years and still the ugly toes is there.. lol..

bbdude · 04-10-2007, 05:48 AM

=/ i'll watch out fo the weights lol

cook82 · 04-11-2007, 05:14 PM

dont worry if you want to see a podiatriatrist go for ti but its fine the same thing happened to me, and my dad's a doctor he looked at it , its totally normal for the nail to fall off, it will grow back eventually

Frostwick · 04-11-2007, 11:55 PM

yeah its cause blood accumulates under the nail and when that washes out theres nothing holding onto the nail
hell when it happened to me i even tried squirting superglue under it so it wouldnt fall off, needless to say it didnt work

bbdude · 04-12-2007, 08:57 AM

lol^^ thats funny^^

Viethulk4 · 04-14-2007, 10:22 PM

There is a bump on my toe where the nail used to be. I think its swollen. Is that normal and can the nail grow back when the bump is still there

bbdude · 04-15-2007, 04:55 AM

i think so..

cook82 · 04-16-2007, 08:03 PM

yeah the nail will grow back the bump is fine, but when the nail grows back it might look different then before

Yet another fine use for superglue! I wonder if that puffy guy from 'disgusting' might try mixing it with his synthol in hopes of getting his 'gains' to stick. :-)

lil_big_junior · 04-16-2007, 10:09 PM
