A member asked:
Hey, i've just had an ingrown toenail removal surgery from both sides of the same toe. i've just realised that the nail is quite loose. what should i do from here?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If only a 2-3 mm sliver on both sides should not make the nail loose. If greater amounts removed possible for nail to be unstable. Keep tape or bandaid until you can see the doctor.
