2019-08-21 07:28:00
My son is 8 months old and started teething. He used to put his fingers in his mouth and today I noticed one of his nail got half detached...I am so worried now. Should I take him to doctor ? Will that nail get attached again or grow again... please suggest.

Dear parents, Nail will grow again and to avoid putting finger in mouth, massage his gums for 10minutes with clean finger morning and evening.
