Injury on thumb nail

2024-11-19 13:04:04
Respected Dr., Around 1 to 1.5 months back, my thumb got injured, and at that time, there was nothing on my nail, but from 1 week, it is uprooting from the lower nail bed. Does it will heal on its own, or should it be done by the surgical process? Please help me out. Thanking you.

Dear , Thank you for your detailed query. Based on your description, it seems like the nail is detaching due to trauma sustained earlier. When a nail uproots from the nail bed, it typically happens because of damage to the matrix (the area where the nail grows from). While this can sometimes heal on its own, improper healing may lead to permanent deformity of the nail or recurrent infections. To address this issue effectively, I recommend: 1. A thorough clinical evaluation to assess the extent of damage to the nail bed and surrounding tissue. 2. Cleaning and dressing of the affected area, if necessary, to prevent infections. 3. If the nail needs surgical intervention for removal or correction, it can be done under local anesthesia in a safe and minimally invasive manner. For personalized care and detailed advice, please opt for a private consultation with me. You can also contact me directly at eight zero zero nine eight two one three three two for assistance and to schedule an appointment.

U can see a healthy nail bed underneath, it will slowly grow upward to give u a healthy nail, at the same time the bruised, discolored nail grow up n slowly goes. Nothing is required, it will take time but it becomes a new new nail. I had a similar Lil finger nails since long time mine is fungal infection too, now it becomes new with just a remnant of bad nail. I don't consult any one. I add only vitamin e400 ones a day for two months. Brand name ir evion400 one at night after dinner..

Good evening sir, Kindly don't worry. This is a process by which the new nail forms,  and it's replacing the older nail. This will not be painful, though uncomfortable to watch. If there is pain or swelling, kindly visit a nearby dermatologist who may assess and assist you.
Health Tips
Kindly do not interfere in the process of the nail formation by plucking the older nail. It may cause bleeding and infection.
