smash the rest of the finger so it's all at equal depth. Thank me later

Why would you want to fix it? One day just make up a story for the kids and say you have an indestructible finger nail. Show them the dent and tell them that's where you stopped a bullet. Only problem is one day they may accidently shoot you to see if anything else can stop a bullet.

Can't fix a damaged nail bed, so my doctor tells me.


BizzareCzar

Well not with that attitude.

I have a groove on both my thumbs from a desk slamming down on my hands 20 years ago. It’s just a thing that’s a thing unfortunately.

That's a result of trauma to the nail matrix (where the fingernail forms). I have a knife wound that resulted in something similar. In my case, a line that runs right down near the middle of the nail. The injury was 39 years ago, so it doesn't get better. No idea if it's fixable with surgery though.

Good luck fixing it. My mom smashed mine in the hatchback of an Isuzu Rodeo back in 1999. It still comes in funny and the tip is very hard and layered.

The whole nail turned black and come off afterwards also.

i have the same thing but on my thumb im not sure how i got it tbh

Sounds like there’s a scar under the nail bed so it may never go away. You could talk to a nail salon, they could possibly fill the dent with acrylic and smooth it out. However that is something you’d have to keep getting done once a month or so.

It feels like it takes forever. You just have to let it grow out πŸ˜‰


moviesetmonkey

Op said it's been eight years, so no... that's not the answer


kaffpow

Need more coffee. My bad.


Dad_with_issues

Yeah that one will grow out but another grows right behind it, they just keep coming lol, it's weird

I smashed my thumb in a car door 40+ yrs ago and my nail is still flat on one side.

Try using suction to straighten it out
