I might come off as a 12 year old by asking this but still, I have to do it. You see I'm seventeen ( not those immatured ones I might add. ) but yet, I have never had any toe nail coming off problems. Heck, I didn't even care when someone drops a toe nail as they just brush it off.
But today, luck has failed me. My second smallest toenail has dropped off. Though there's no bleeding or whatsoever. Naturally I panicked. A quick search on google and some post I found says there I should wear a band aid? Well here's the question/s I have. Thanks in advance for the help.
1.) Should I put on band aid?
2.) Do I need to change it everyday? ( I play basketball and I'm afraid that it would get infected if I don't change it.)
3.) Will there be any harm if I don't put band aid? ( See above bracketed part for info. )
4.) Any measures I can take to prevent infection? / Any thing I can do to make it grow faster?
Ask a doctor
That can't be good..
Oh dear god, excuse me while I throw up...

Answer is there.
Edit: For hygienic reasons, i'd change it everyday.
Had the same thing happen to me, but mine didn't tear all the way off. I needed stitches but I'm not sure about you. Just clean the area everyday with antiseptic and you should be fine.

Haha, I looked up an article about 'Chris Brown beating up Rihanna' and there was an IQ test above the article saying "Can you beat Rihanna?" I lol'd.
