A member asked:

Infection on pinky toe treated with antibiotics, now toenail is falling off, is that normal?

Possibly: Infection could have affected nail bed causing separation. If signs of infection continue or get worse, go back to the doctor for further care. Antibioiltic ointment and band aid for wound care.
