Answer #1

thissame thing happen to twicw last summer. and all I basically wore were flip flopes. so doubt if moisture was the cause and I have very pretty feet and toenails plus this summer it even happened to my 2 yr old who has cute little fungus free toes.at first I thought it was maybe cause I walked too much because p diddy said all his toenails fell of after he did the nyc marathon. but my 2 yr old does not walk a lot so, I clueless at this point

Answer #2

ok, well if you have good insurance go see a doc, if not listen up. I had the same exact thing happen to me last year, I was kinda freaked, and my mom didnt really care, so I made sure that the nail bed was kept clear of debris, took my socks off whenever I could, and now I have my nail back and its fine. This can be caused by to much moisture such as wearing shoes 24/7. ALTHOUGH if you have signs of infection: oozing yellow puss, a greenish, blueish bruise directly on the the nail bed, go see your doctor

Answer #3

Did you bang it? Sometimes, if you hit your toes too hard on something, it can damage the nail and cause it to fall off.

If it really did just fall off for no reason, well, that’s not normal…see a doctor.

Answer #4

I THINK you SHOULD GO TO THE DOCTOR because THEY SHOULDNT BE FALLIN OFF
