E-rx.onlineWhat to Know About Broken Nail in Kaleici
Kaleici is the walled old harbour quarter of Antalya, with Roman gates, a tower, narrow Ottoman streets and boutique hotels, so hot cobbled walks and long days outdoors are typical. Beach sports, sunbeds and sandy water sports can split nails. Clean the area and cover it before getting back in the water.
Causes and Risk Factors
Catching or bending the nail, a blow or crush injury, slamming it in a door, sport or harsh chemicals. Weak or brittle nails break more readily.
About Broken Nail
A broken nail is a split, crack or tear of the nail, sometimes with injury to the nail bed beneath. Most cases are minor, though painful and at times infected.
Symptoms of Broken Nail
- Pain and tenderness
- Cracked, split or torn nail
- Bleeding under or around the nail
- Redness or swelling if infected
- Dark bruise under the nail
Care and Treatment for Broken Nail
On video the doctor inspects the nail, gives care and pain-relief advice, looks for infection and sets up an in-person check if the nail bed or bone could be damaged. Typical choices are wound cleaning, a dressing and, if infected, an antibiotic; a nail bed injury may need in-person repair.
- Wash the area gently with soap and water
- Trim any sharp, loose edge with clean scissors
- Cover the nail with a clean dressing
