My toenail fell off at the nail bed last night. should i go to the doc or can i take care of with home remedies? it may happen on other foot too.

Depends: If there is not some pathological underlying cause that caused the nail to fall off and needs treatment, it is usually ok to wait. The nail will ultimately grow back but it can take even up to about three months to do so.
