My nail's turning white at the root...?

I clipped my nail too close and got a little cut on my finger. Well, looks like it got infected and it's really swollen up...The swelling's still there and now I noticed that my nail's starting to turn white at the root and looks like it's spreading to the tip.





If I look closely, I can see where the nail starts and I can almost lift it up. looks like it's coming off or something..But the other half of my nail is still nice and healthy.





Could this be a fungus infection? If not, what else could it be? Do I make an appointment with the doctor for this or what? I heard that there's a way to treat fungus infection with vinegar. What do I do with it?





If the nail comes off, would it grow back? I'm scared that I'll be missing a nail!My nail's turning white at the root...?
I cannot answer if it is an infection/fungus or not, but I have completely lost a nail before and they do grow back even if nothing is there for a while. No worries.

What r the white spota under your finger nail y r they there?

The white spots under your nails are there because, at one time or another, you hit or slammed your fingernails onto something. These spots are pretty much similar to scars on your skin. Often times, you should not be alarmed when you have them under your nails. As your nails grow, after a time, you'd notice that the spots are gone too.





Sometimes though, the spots may indicate that you are allergic to nail paints and polishes. Psoriasis and eczema can also trigger these whitish spots to appear. Lastly, if your nails are fragile, they will easily split so you will often have white spots under them.

How do i get my nails to be white at the ends?

get a bowl and some of the little lemon containers. Pour the lemon in the bowl and soak your nails in it. After they have dried naturally, wash your hands and use hand cream on your hands. It worked for me.How do i get my nails to be white at the ends?

get a french manicure
They sell a pencil at the drugstore to apply under the nail tip, about two dollars. I've used it and it last throughout the day.
French tips. It's a manicure.
make sure you clean em out good and manicure them..or if you are going for the unnatural route i would say get fakes nails or color your nails white.
i dont know...i dont think they are suppose to be naturally super white any ways...my nail tips look like a frosted clear
you dont it is impossible...go get a french manicure.
No persons nails are paper white, usually you should add water to your diet as well decrease the amount of red meat if not eliminate it. Also put fruits and veggies in your diet i would say after a month you should notice a change in the color. Your nails are a product of the things in your body, nails are just dead cells.
go get your nails a French manicure.

Good Luck!How To Make White Tips on Nails?
theres this thing called konad nail art


and its like image plates and you just put the nail polish on and remove. its super easy!


they have image plates for french nails also


but its quite coslty but worth it because you can reuse them over and over.


or you can always go to a store and have them do it for you
well .





1) put the clear base coat wear you want the white tips .


2) put the white coat onto wear you want it . to make it more defined take a small brush and dip it into the acetone nail polish remover and smooth it out .


3) wait for it to dry .


4) when it is dry put on a coat of the clear nail polish .





also there is a product out their that makes your nail tips whiter . go to your chemist and ask for it or at target or kmart or anything .
you can get some little strips, drugstore, wal- mart, they fit just under your tip on the nail, then take white polish, apply it, let it dry, COMPLETELY, then put a clear coat (top coat) on. If you do put base coat on, it also has to dry completly. White polish is very tricky, good luck!
when you get a french manicure set thing, they usually have something like a little piece of tape that is rounded at the top and then you put that on your nails and paint white you wait for it to dry, peel off the tape, then put on the clear coat.
buy a french nail kit.


it comes with top pieces so you put it under where you want the white and it will come out smoothe.





or there is a very good fake nail ones.


i love them.


either glue ons


or stick ons.





stick ons dont ruin your nails as much :P
first clear coat the nail, then take a TEENY TINY tube of white nail polish with a TEENY TINY brush and paint the tips of ur nails
yupp the sally hansen french tip nail pen found at either target walmart or wegmans, it really really works, my nails look awsome haha
Buy the Sally Hansen french manicure kit at the drugstore. It cost under ten dollars.
I bought a nail kit, it had me put tape on the rest of my nail and it worked so thats what I sugjest
have a professional do it





(or buy a french nail pen)
change the base coat you are using
