Jaffacakes Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 I riped off a finger nail skating a few years back. It will be a good few months before it grows back fully.You will be back on your bike in a week - week and a half though. Just make sure you wear the bandage thing they give you for the first week and make sure you use antibiotics so it doesn't get infected .

Onzaallen Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 Hi, It will take quiet a while for it to grow back but you should be able to ride pretty soon. Once i broke my finger and my nail fell off as well and it took nearly a year to grow back which i thought was a very long time.Get better soon, and pictures would be good mate.Allen.

Rich J Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 OUCH! I slammed my little sisters finger in the door once (by accident) and it was literally hanging off it was sick. You should be able to ride soon though just keep it protected and do everything your told. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krisboats Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 (edited) I did this to my thumb a few years back when i was lifting a steel pole, i dropped it and it caught my thumbnail and ripped it off pretty much. Quick fix = superglue... puts the nail back on and seals it up so no nasties can get in. Just live with the constant stinging for like 3 hours... after that you'll get used so won't feel it as much, just a warm numbness really. It'll let you be riding within like a day maybe 2.Eventually you'll have new nail grow and it'll push the old one off after about 3 months.Just thought i should edit and say i accept no resposnsibility for anything that might occur after using superglue to fix yourself, i mean most of you people will be kids and you do stupid things at your own risk Edited March 25, 2006 by Krisboats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ogre Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 Superglue was designed to glue people back together (for vietnam) in combat... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
