When I pulled her hand out she was gripping so hard she tore the skin from my gums and the area underneath. She had such a grip that her fingernail ripped of when I pulled her hand out. I was told by my Dr. to have a HIV test done now and again in 6 months. I was wondering what the possibility of exposure was from this kind of wound. I am not allowed to ask her mother about her daughters possible positive or negative status because of privacy laws, but I was slightly concerned.
Why is my fingernail on my middle finger starting to pull away from my skin and turn white and the bottom half is pitting and peeling? What could this be?
My figernails are separating from the nail beds and falling off. When I brought this up to my oncologist, he stated that it was from the Taxotere. I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem occur and what they've done for it.
Thanks!
So I was wondering did I contract HIV this way because my hands a quite raw because I wash them a lot and there are scabs that wrap around my wrist. Along with a peeled off fingernail and a torn up cutical on my right thumb. Also the back and palm of my hands are pretty cracked as well and we didn’t have gloves. Did I contract HIV or Hepatitis this way? (Some of the smuges were really dark while some were light and it was also one with literally a blotch of blood on it.
Two months ago I trapped my finger stupidly in the door (where the hinges are) and today the nail finally fell off. I have added a photo as I am not sure if everything is ok. I guess what is the nail is growing back but its like a half inch bump in the middle of the nail, Could anyone recommend if I should leave nature take it's course, or should I see a doctor?
Could this be a type of fingernail material growing from the scalp? The physical consistency of this 'hair' strongly resembles that of a fingernail. Extensive searching the net has found nothing. Surely my daughter is not the only case like this. I read about keratin, but it seems the keratin in hair and nails is the same.
I was poking at a small scab on my shaft and used my fingernail to pop a small blister. I then put some soap on turned on the water and started to lather my hand, but then before I could get the water on my hand my fingernail I was using dug into my other hands skin and broke the skin and drew blood. I washed my hands for about a min but my question is I had blister waterish on my fingernail and went into skin. Could have I just transferred the fluid into my skin ?
Obtaining sample nail clippings and sending it off for a fungal culture can confirm the diagnosis of an infection. If present, then appropriate anti-fungal medications should be started.

It is large, and white on the tip. I had one just like it before just below the tip, and the skin eventually came off (when i ripped it, it bled a little). Sometimes the tip of my penis hurts.

Information on cuts and HIV risk is very confusing so I'm seeking clarification please. How deep to cuts have to be, to be at risk of contracting HIV? Do cuts have to be huge wounds or can they be quite smaller?
Me and my girlfriend were having sex. I didn't realize the condom ripped for about 5 minutes. I didn't ejaculate inside of her. However there was pre-ejaculation in the condom and some may have got inside of her. This was three days after she got off of her period and she has been on birth control only for a couple days tho. It's too late for the day after pill. What are the chances she is pregnant? What should I do?
Ever since I can remember, on my thumbnail and big-toe nail, there has been a strange deterioration. It looks like a series of grooves in the center of the nail (see attached pictures). My fingernails aren't weak or brittle and they're not really falling off or anything. I don't think it's anything serious, but I've always been curious what it is. If anybody could help at all, that would be great.
I had no idea what this was about, so in some sort of childish innocence I assumed it was meant to happen, and fairly painfully ripped it off all the way around, to this day I have no idea why the hell I did that... At any rate, it healed up, but my foreskin isn't attached to the head of my penis at all apart from the bit at the front.
I bite my fingernails off and one of my cuticles is really red and sore. Almost like an open sore. It looks like it's on the verge of bleeding. Well, I inserted that finger inside another guy's ***. Is that a risk?
Hello,
Last night I was at a strip club with some friends and I got a lap dance from one of the girls. My finger was dry and the skin below the fingernail area was peeling so there was a small cut. I don't believe it was bleeding at the time, however the outer layer of my skin is peeled off and you can see the red skin beneath. I have done some research and searched the forums but I could not find a similar question.
it, and nothing happened, so of course, I ripped it off with my fingernail. I am assuming its a cold sore, however, I am not familiar with them as I have never had one to the best of my knowledge. Any how, thank you for your information.

t heal well and small bit of the cornea are ripped off especially during sleep. This is called recurrent corneal erosion syndrome. Read about it on the internet. Also about 20% of our LASIK/SMLE refractive surgery are because people lose the ability to wear their contacts. If you have access to an ophthalmologist that specializes in the cornea that would be ideal.

The back of my two bottom teeth are peeling off at the gum. If I took my fingernail, I could pull part of my tooth off. I can't see back there to see what is happening and it doesn't hurt. Help!
Forgive me if I am wrong but is the blood stream not just that i.e if you bleed then the item/object eg the fingernail has penetrated direct into your blood stream? Please explain as this is very concerning for me after being scratched when shaking hands and it caused me to bleed quite a bit from my finger.

Does herpes whitlow cause pain under the fingernail and forearm? I've heard of the tingling and burning, I'm not feeling either but I'm feeling numbness under the fingernail and forearm? I did use the bathroom and with the same hand I pulled up my zipper and then in seconds used the underneath of my fingernail very firmly to secure it without washing my hands, very paranoid I spread the virus to my zipper then to the underneath of my fingernail.
