My Acrylic Nail Ripped My Real Nail Off

Not sure what to do.

My acrylic nail ripped my real nail off. She was fine for a few days but then had to get antibiotics as she got an infection. I caught 2 of them on furniture etc. I would take the acrylic off but it still attached to the real nail which is pulled off from the nail bed area.

When an artificial nail rips off your natural nail it is a sure sign that the nails you had applied were created with dental acrylic. Ripped false nail AND my real nail nearly off. And since it hurted so much the night it happened.

It lifted up the nail beds is bleeding. The first step is to assess the damage to the nail and the nail bed beneath the nail. Cutting the excess ripped nail and cleaning the surrounding area is the first thing you need to follow when injured.

Cut off the lifted nail. If the acrylic nail has been damaged enough to have the backing matrix part pops off then you can take off the nail polish and let it soak in alcohol or bleach for a day or two to remove any remaining paint. Minor traumas while removing the acrylic nails and microbial infections are pretty common among people.

The bleeding has finally stopped. I have googled tried nail clippers and scissors. Acrylic nail ripped off real nail.

If because of the trauma your nail is ripped and the area around the nail is injured it is advised to apply some antibiotic ointment to minimize the possibility of infection. Here lift the acrylic nail slowly and safely. There could be multiple ways your nail might get hurt but the damage is painful and bloody.
