    I wasn't sure where to post this so i thought this might be the best place

    My big toenail has come loose. It has been loose for the past couple weeks and i felt like it was wanting to come off but i let it be since it wasn't cause any major trouble. It happened when i was playing football

    This morning i was getting out of bed and accidently snagged it on the bed sheets. It got ripped up a fair bit and was standing at about a 30 degree angle. I had a look at it afterwards and it was completely seperated from the base of the toenail but was still attached to the place from where it grows (dont know what thats called). It didn't hurt or anything and i was able to wiggle it around loads.

    Now I'm not sure what to do with it. Its so loose i feel i should just rip it off but after looking online it seems i should just try keep it down with a plaster or something and hope for the best? I'm not sure haha

    Any advice is much appreciated
