A dog bit my thumb 2 years ago, and now my nail always grows back split,why is this?

The bite damaged the nail bed, which is where the nail begins growth. It can take a year or more for normal nail growth to resume after an injury.





I don't know how successful repairs to the nail bed are, althouhg I know it is possible : you would have to ask a plastic surgeon or orthopedic surgeon ... and find one who specializes in taking care of hands. A dog bit my thumb 2 years ago, and now my nail always grows back split,why is this?
