Broken toenail?*graphic*

Omfg.
I just reached down to scratch my foot, and part of my smurfing toenail came off. Like...a corner of it is GONE, exposing skin...

What the smurf do I do about this? Should I just wash it and let it get air, or put a bandaid on it? It stings  


WARNING GRAPHIC ISH PIC:



It hurts  

Not much you can too...just keep it clean and let it heal. Boo!

holy smurf that must hurt like a bitch! I would say some neosporin(sp?) and a bandaid.

Neosporin and a bandaid.

Quoting Mel & a girl named Pey:" Not much you can too...just keep it clean and let it heal. Boo!"

I don't even remember it being split or stubbing it or anything. It burns  
Oh wait. I DID drop a heavy speaker on my foot last night   Maybe it hit the toenail. Blahhh. I'm so unlucky  

Ouch!! I would clean it up really good put some neosporen (sp) and put a bandaid on it for tonight just for snagging on cover purposes and then let it air out tomorrow

OUCH! Luckily it was just part of the nail!!

I know for sure I have neosporin but IDK if I even have any bandaids.
Off to look.  

My poor baby once kicked the corner of a table and his whole toenail came off. I put peroxide on it then put gauze on it and it got infected then we had to put strong antibiotic cream on it for a long time. I would suggest cleaning it with peroxide then putting antibiotic ointment and a bandaid on it.

If you don't have a band aid, I've used a cotton ball or toilet paper and tape before. You don't want to catch the edge of the rest of the nail on something.

This happens to me a lot. I just leave it after cleaning it!

I definitely jerry rigged some gauze and duct tape

Duct tape fixes everything!
