I had my left big toenail removed, following a stubbing of it in the night, which was very bloody, painful, etc.
It grew back all flakey and ugly. I took care of the nail bed well, and used antifungal cream on it, and kept it covered. It never showed any signs of infection by fungus or bacteria. I think it is part of my neuropathy/lupus process. I think the nail bed is dying. So I understand completely.
