How to deal with the breakage:

First sanitise hands thoroughly. Then, open the wound slightly and sanitise it. this will sting but only momentarily. Then open the wound slightly again and using a pharmaceutical grade EC resin adhesive, apply to the wound and close it up applying gentle pressure until dry. The pain will be relieved immediately.

Then very gently, thin any product in the area over the breakage while supporting the nail from beneath with your finger, all the time, and sanitise and re-apply l/P over the area to re-enforce the break.

If the client/you experiences any painful throbbing during the next 24 hours, the enhancement will have to be removed BUT ... I have never had this occur to a client whose nail I have mended EVER. By the next rebalance, you can either soak/file gently off and reapply or leave it alone to grow out naturally.

Is this a special type of glue only available in pharmacies? Is it like wound glue for the skin?

As far as I know all CND's resins are pharmaceutical grade ethyl cyanoacrylate resins

I have used method Gigi described fro many years with great success as well.

I suggest using more "runny" resin. It seeps in nicely into the crack and it dries quicker.
