So I had a cuticle infection which I managed to get rid of with antibiotics, but was left with a weirdo painful granuloma on the nail itself. GP partially burned it off with silver nitrate and over half the nail fell off with it. I'm left with a very tender and warped nail bed :( I'm terrified the nail matrix has been damaged from the infection and silver nitrate and I'll be left with no nail ever again.

Has anyone any experience with something similar - I know it will take a long time to come back, but so scared this is permanent damage. Is there anything I can do?
