I just opened the frig and my big toe got in the way my nail came off the skin about halfway down what to do?

It is still intact but is thumping with pain.Blood is starting to build up inside and it is turning purple.I just opened the frig and my big toe got in the way my nail came off the skin about halfway down what to do?
You might wanna go see a doctor, but until then you should put your toe in some warm water for about 15 minutes. Start a cycle: 15min in the water, 15min out of the water, 15min in the water, etc until you can see your doctor. Your doctor should be able to come up with an answer as to whether or not your nail should be removed. If so, they'll probably just tell you what I told you about putting your foot in warm water and cycling it until you can pull it off yourself. Don't worry, if they tell you to take it off! If you soak it in warm water, then it won't hurt when you pull it off because the skin is soft and it won't be as bad as ripping it off right this second.





Good luck though! Keep it clean so it won't get infected either! If it bleeds, cover it with a clean towel until it calms down, then soak it in warm water. (water, water, water... I know lol)I just opened the frig and my big toe got in the way my nail came off the skin about halfway down what to do?
You should seek medical attention immediately. At the very least, call a nearby hospital or physician's office and ask to speak with someone who can consult with you about your situation.





It sounds as though your nail is not salvageable and will need to be removed by a licensed physician. Warm water, as another user suggested, may help ease the pain, but could also lead to a tissue infection of the water is not clear of microbes. The best thing to do is stop the bleeding (if external to the skin), apply ice to ease the swelling, and get yourself some qualified help.
