Good evening doctors. Thank you for being so wonderful to us. My baby's big toe nail suddenly became dark and hard a few days ago and today, one of them pulled off. The other one is still dark and hard.
Please, is there any reason for this? Can this be avoided? What can be done to the nail as it is just open? Thank you so much.
My baby is 16months old.
What can be done to the nail as it is just open?
We cannot say the cause because we don't have the background information. Did the child sustain any injury? If no injuries, it may be an infection.
You should see a doctor for proper evaluation and management.
