wow!! thisn shit really work
Ok, so what if its been over 2 weeks now and I didn’t know to do this? My nail has dry blood under it and it looks dead. I poked it with a paperclip near the cuticle and the nail started chipping away! I was fascinated so I kept doing it until all the dried blood was chipped away (including the nail) and it was fresh, pink skin again. Not to mention when I got to the live skin it hurt to poke it with a paperclip! Now I have half of my fingernail missing but from the wrong end! It doesn’t appear to be growing in any either … what can I do so that the new nail grows in properly (which I hope is still possible)?
You cant do much this late in the game, to ensure the new nail will grow out properly. What your describing is normal, you can put some clear coat where the nail chipped off to protect your finger.
I love this solution! I was a bit scared and it took me 4 tries with a needle (I think I understand now why you recommend a paperclip- you want the blunt base) because I was sheepish, but don’t worry! It doesn’t hurt at all, and now it does feel much better than it did before. Just a cute little poke hole in the middle of the toenail.
i tried this and it worked. i used the paper clip methode. took me a bunch of times. make sure really hot. wont say u dont feel a thing but not bad. i got the whhole as deep as i could then slowly inserted needle tip all of a sudden blood flowed out. ah.hhhhh relief! sosk it for long time dont want bscteria under that nail. cant wait to see how it heals
