OMG I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM TODAY I JSUT CAME BACK FROM 4 HOURS of intense doubles... when i came out of the shower i felt it like it was going to come off whole!! it used to be all black and i saw a pritty large blood stain on my sock what should i do! leave it for now? i put some cream on it but i dont know what to do if its still extremely weak...i cant play badminton for another 4 months!??!
relax, read back all the posts in this thread. i also already tried to be relax and still having fun playing badminton
Since it's almost off.. ..and since everyone is protesting for George to put up a pic of his toe nail's current condition, how about if George put up a pic of his newly grown toe nail??..
Ouch, had similar thing happen to me too... I agree much with everyone's advice: to treat: - keep dry - wear sandals? whenever you can to keep it dry - don't take off the whole nail... only cut whatever is normally too long - there are ointments to prevent fungi from growing, etc. - check with a doctor! for future reference: - Make sure ur shoe is comfortable - Cut ur nails! not too short tho because other injuries can come from that as well. - wear good socks... thick sport socks preferably - Also.. maybe check with a coach to see if you can adapt your footwork to put less pressure on your toes?... I didn't check with a coach when I started playing with the recovering toe; I just changed and adapted my footwork myself to put less pressure on my toes. I discovered another plus I hadn't intended! Greater balance and speed on my feet...
