OUCH!!! I know it's kinda gross, but can someone help me?

Question

I stubbed my big toe yesterday and ripped off half of the nail vertically, all way back to the cuticle. Today, it is seeping a yellowish/clear liquid but does not look like infection and is extremely sore.

What should I do with it? Should I cover it or not? Anything helpful would be really appreciated. Thanks!

Answer 1

I have done that before i let it air out for a day then i put a&d on it and put bandaids on it

good luck hope it gets better  

Answer 2

It's probobly plasma, part of the body's blood. I'd reccomend puting some A&D ointment and keeping it wrapped up atleast for a while.

Answer 3

Keep it cleaned and don;t cover it because it needs to be aired out and all that stuff needs to come out.

Answer 4

Keep it clean and after today start putting band-aids on it to keep it protected. If it starts to look infected obviously go to the doctor.
