I tied my shoes too tight during a 🏃‍♀️ race last year, and as a result lost a toenail a few weeks ago Even though it wasn’t painful at any point I lost my mind when it first happened and was late to a party as I dawdled around my apartment freaking out about being able to touch the soft skin under the nail. I carefully protected it (from what I don’t even know). But now that it’s been gone awhile I don’t care anymore and it’s kind of fascinating. When you lose a nail an almost shadow nail forms. The skin changes. I am watching myself heal from an injury I have never experienced before. Is this how people who break a bone for the first time feel? Will probably be another 6 months before I have anything resembling a nail there.

First time I broke a bone I didn’t realize I had a broken bone until it had already calcified so it couldn’t be set. I thought it would hurt more. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I lost both my thumbnails as a child and it was bad, but eventually they came back. You will be fine although I understand toenails take longer to grow.

had my fingernail bed ripped out and fractured the tip of my finger. needed stitches. fingernail died, then fell off, and took months to grow a new one. kept the tip of my finger wrapped in gauze for a hot minute to protect it from any infections. wasn’t fun or pretty lol

Remember getting one of my toenails ripped off in a bike accident when I was younger. Didn't feel it, but that's only because I lost the skin on my elbows and knees and I was busy freaking out about that.

I’ve lost several toenails from soccer, running with too tight shoes, and also opening a door over my foot 🥴 they’ll grow back but it’s weird af to see your little toe sausage all naked and soft without a nail

I hope your nail grows back prettily🤭 And I started reading ‘The Women’ and ughh i love you for the recommendation! It did start a bit too fast paced but I understand thats because there is a lot to happen, im still super early in the book and will update more on fc as i read more!

On a similar note I have fixed a lot of my IT band issues by buying my shoes a size larger

Have lost nails a few times and it definitely wasn’t as painful as I’d expected
