Will a fingernail grow back?

Introduction

Have you ever lost a fingernail or toenail and wondered if it will return? Fret not! This article addresses everything about will a fingernail grow back?

What are nails made of anyway?

Before diving into the possibility of regrowing nails, let’s start with their composition. Nails are primarily composed of keratin, which is the same protein that makes up our hair and skin.

Nails have several different parts – the body, the root, the nail bed, and the matrix. Any damage to these structures can impact nail growth.

So…can a lost nail grow back or not?

The short answer is yes; it most likely can grow back!

However, there are some variables at play such as age, health status, and extent of damage.

Factors Affecting Nail Growth after Loss

Below we’ve provided an overview of factors that affect nail growth after its loss:

1. Age
2. Genetics
3. Nutritional deficiencies
4. Health conditions (e.g diabetes)
5. Trauma to surrounding area (keep those fingers safe!)
6. Damage to underlying bone
   7.Medications

Not all instances where nails fall off can result in sufficient regeneration mainly depending on one’s medical history.

But wait- what did I promise earlier?

How long does it take for nails to regrow anyways?

You may be wondering how many weeks/months will pass by before your precious little patella starts popping out again.

Here’s what you need to know:

Fingernails: On average, it takes around three months, but allows time for healing —usually five-one fifty-five days—before completion

Toenails: Naturally, it takes at least six months to re-grow completely
