I bruised my big toe pretty badly a couple months ago playing basketball, and a few weeks later, most of the nail on that toe fell off. Will the nail ever grow back? It's been a while now, and it doesn't look like it's coming back. It doesn't cause pain or bother me, but I was just wondering if it will come back since it looks pretty damn nasty. Thanks

Mzakal...it is now February 19, 2004, and I imagine your toe nail has grown back by now. I just came across your article, and I am sorry no one else replied to it. A little known fact: Your finger nails grow back 4x faster than your toe nails. If your toe nail has yet to grow back, I suggest seeing a doctor, as they should be able to give you something to stimulate the growth of the nail. Good luck - Rodney

ha...thanks Rodney. It is back now. I'd never lost a nail all the way to the cuticle like that before, so it made me wonder after a couple of months if it would ever come back. I'm sure I'll just do it again soon, anyway.

HA! I lost my big toenail the same way; left foot. Even funnier, I lost the right big toenail two years ago doing a move. Both have returned. Congrats on the regenerative powers :)

This was my "Summer of the Pinky toes. I broke 'em both. Lost both nails, grew 'em back. Toes are tough.

Please tell me this had nothing to do with cats and goal posts.

It was an outboard motor, 2x4, vibration, and a cedar chestjavascript:insertSmiley(this.form.message, ':angry:')

Ok, let me guess. You were being pulled behind a power speed boat on a 2x4 (you had heard it was more fun than a knee board) when into your path came a floater; a nice cedar chest.
You hollered, the boat hit the breaks, and you smacked toes first into the outboard motor. You, the boat, and a square mile of water vibrated for several seconds in the aftermath. ?

How on earth do you vibrate off a toenail?

Your version is better than mine , O.
Left toe....I was working on my trolling outboard on the bench at my dock. I always keep a 2x4 handy when I am mechanicing so as to bash the bastard motor if necessary. I did somthing right, the motor cranked and the vibration jarred the 2x4 off the bench. My toe broke its fall.
Right toe....on the return trip from the can I kicked the cedar chest I built at the foot of the bed. I am a first rate cabinet maker. Cabinet 1 Charlie's pinky toe 0
