How do i deal with a broken toe nail? it's broken in half and it keeps cracking.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Broken nail: usually caused by some form of trauma. Keep them cut short to avoid catching in socks and shoes. Can have it removed, could use super glue or a clear polish to keep it together. See your local podiatrist for a good exam.
