Your nail just suffered from acute parayonchia... After some time you soak your hand, causing the bottom half of your nail to break apart. The entirety of the nail is about to fall out.

What should you do?

If paronychia is mild and hasn’t started to spread beyond the finger nail you can probable treat it at home soak the infected nail in warm water for 20 min a few times a day the infection will probable heal on its own in a few days if parayonchia doesn’t get better after a week or so call your doctor right away if it looks like the infection has spread beyond the area of the nail
