my daughter is 3 and I noticed today that the toenail on each of her big toes is not connected at base of her toe anymore. No blood or anything, but it is very obviously not connected at the cuticle/base of her toe. What causes this? What do I need to do for her? Will it reattach?
Hi, Thankyou for your query.First I would like to know that if she is having other problems also like joint pain, tiredness and weakness, recurrent fever or particular rashes and itching. As all of above-mentioned symptoms if associated with fall of toenails, it could be caused by an autoimmune disease.Otherwise it could be fungal infection or because of wearing tight shoes. Ofter falling of toenails, they will not reattach but develop newly slowly. Hopefully my answer is helpful. Chat Doctor.
