My son ripped his toenail off the bed with a piece of wood or something, anyway, he put the nail back down and kept a pad saturated with CS on it all the time. It healed up fine and didn't even so much as hint at infection. Good luck. Kathryn

Yesterday I had the misfortune to stump my little toe against the leg of my rebounder (yeah I know, need to look where I put my feet <:-| )..

It tore the nail off by 99%, and I went to emergency where a kind doctor cut the tissue and removed all of nail. My own attempt on pulling it off didn't work, pain was even worse than pain I already felt.

Anyhow, I am now left with a raw nail bed, rather sore to walk on foot, but at least the bleeding has stopped. Because of the bleeding I couldn't put any arnica around the rest of the toe that received just the trauma but no torn skin, so the swelling will be slower to come down. umm.. wasn't quite my day

Would anyone have any suggestions towards a speedy healing of this sort of injury? I have my spray with CS and DMSO ready for when the bandage comes off.. That should be tomorrow (if I can handle it being on there for so long).

Thanks for all input
