A member asked:
Is it normal for a toenail that has been removed 2 months ago to look odd? my new nail is just 1,5 mm long but the skin above still looks flaky&crusty
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible: It is possible for a new growth toenail to appear different than it had before. If there was damage to the area where the nail grows from (either from the injury or the removal itself), then the resulting new growth can be unusual in appearance.
