The nail never grew properly again. We went to see a nail specialist who said he would remove it. Almost 3 and a half years later - he hasn't. I havent gone back to see him - and by now i've removed the nail myself everytime it grew back (litterally, had it ripped out).
Now, it doesnt look bad really, just like a hard skin cover - but there is a little bit of.. ';nail'; or weak nail growing, but I dont know if it will grow back normally anymore.
On the other nail - it's growing back, not fully yet - but it definately iy.Damaged Nail beds?
Usually people who have their nails chipped off, grow it back in around 3 months because there is still a little bit of nail on the nail bed, and that is what causes it to grow back. However, if there is no nail left on the nail bed, then it probably won't grow back.
What I learned is that you soak your nails in salty warm water, and then you put a bandage on it so that you won't keep on picking it off. But since this has been a habit of yours, I don't know if it will actually grow back, but this is just to prevent infection.
If you want, you can use an artificial nail.
Good to hear your other nail is growing back, don't touch the other one! It might grow back, not normally, but let it grow back the best it can. Atleast you didn't lose an arm, or a leg, or you're blind!
Good luck!
