General question about fingernails if anybody knows. I'm just curious... if a fingernail is ripped off though whatever means, does it grow back or are you going to have one less nail for life?


It usually grows back, but there's no guarantee that you will grow back the full nail.



OP, the picture isn't as bad as what everyone is saying. It should be a nice story to tell family though. Finger nails are overrated anyway.

I had two ripped off my left hand about 10 years (long extremely painful story). I even had 8-10 stitches on each finger where the nails used to be to hold the mangled skin that was left in place. After about 1 year they grew back but they are 1/8th of a inch shorter now!
