Hi All,
I had a client to come me for a repair today. She had an injury on her nail where she had a small crack that went right through her nail. It looks like a bacterial infection has started but it seems to have worked it's way underneath her natural nail through the crack. I soak off the acrylic and thoroughly cleaned the nail, shortened it then replaced the acrylic.
Was this the right course of action? Im really worried as the infection seems to be underneath and not sitting on the surface like other infections I've seen. She is coming back on Friday for me to check it - should I have removed the acrylic and left it off till the infection had cleared? Or should she go to the GP?
Im so worried....
