Question: Medical Help. Fingernail Puncture wound....?
My dog had accidentally punctured my finger-nail. Half of the nail is broken off and is bleeding. I ran my finger under running water, covered it with neosporin, and wrapped it with a bandaid. Should I go to the hospital or do any thing else.? Half of my nail is gone, will it ever grow back and how long will it take.?Health Question & Answer

Sounds like your doing the right thing. Keep it clean and neosporin on it, cover it. It may take up to 2-3 months to grow out, but it will,Health Question & Answer
