In order to protect your toenail, you should:

  • Soak it in epsom salt,
  • Put a bandage around it to prevent dirt or germs from infecting it,
  • Wear shoes at all times.
Your toenail will eventually grow back, but you need to keep taking care of it so it won't get infected, because that will prohibit growth of the new nail.

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.

But even if everything is OK, it can take some months before you see it at all, and a full year for complete replacement.
