1 Answer

Answer :

That’s not all that long for it to last and it’s small so I wouldn’t worry about it too much. I’ve done it so the entire nail turns black and eventually falls off. That’s usually quicker, about two to three weeks. The other option is go to the Dr. and they can pierce the nail and let the blood out, but it doesn’t sound that bad that you need to do that. And don’t try it on your own.
