About broken nail
A broken nail is a split, crack or tear in the nail, sometimes with injury to the nail bed underneath. Most cases are minor, though painful and at times infected.
Common triggers
Catching or bending the nail, a blow or crush injury, slamming it in a door, sport or harsh chemicals. Weak or brittle nails break more readily.
Getting broken nail treated in Kadikoy
