If a toenail gets damaged, by a shock, or too short a shoe, it can "die" and a new one starts to grow underneath. Eventually the damaged one falls off. That may or may not be your problem. Check with a doctor.

When does a toenail not grow back?
As long as the nail growth zone(some mm behind the cuticle) is OK, the nail should grow back. If there's serious damage to that area, the nail may not grow back at all, come back deformed, or only partially. But even if everything is OK, it can take some months before you see it at all, and a full year for complete replacement.
How do you treat a toenail when it is hanging on by the back of cuticle and it hurts?
Definitely go to your doctor or a hospital. You will need anti-fungal cream, plenty of gauze and the manual precision of a professional. This does sound painful, so do not stub your foot! However, sometimes the pain of a toenail before it breaks off is much worse than after it does. The healing is a relief and a whole new nail will grow back cleaner over a year.
