is it normal for there to be gaps or shards when nail first starts growing back? i need reassurance like bad.
accidentally put these photos in the wrong order so the second one is the most recent and the last one is the earliest. had to take the nail off because it was very thin and damaged like paper and there was a crack down the middle. wasnt painful and didnt bleed underneath but im still hoping the matrix isnt damaged. it’s only been two weeks so I’m not expecting a whole lot of growth, but the bed looks nice and healed. I just trimmed the shards so everything could grow back even and so it wouldn’t snag on stuff. this is my second time losing a nail so this isn’t new to me, but the first time was much worse and it grew back fine so I’m trying to be hopeful. I’m just hoping the whole entire nail hasn’t caught up yet with the rest of it. hope i worded this right. lol
