If your toenail fell off and the skin is getting thicker, it could be from healing, infection, or irritation from swimming.

What to Do:
Keep it clean and dry
Apply antibiotic ointment
Avoid swimming for now
Wear open-toed shoes
See a doctor if:
Skin is red, swollen, or leaking pus
Thickness keeps increasing
Bad smell or discoloration
