Nail Bed Deformities - Munster & Hobart Fingertip Injuries

If you’ve ever got your fingers crushed in a closing door, or even worse, in heavy machinery, you’ll know that fingertip injuries are not just painful, but can also leave permanent nail bed deformities. Dr. Bradley Ashpole, is a specialist in hand surgery and has the training and experience to repair such injuries.

Besides hematomas, fingertip injury can also result in cracking or tearing of the nail, bone fractures, and damage to adjacent nerves. When the nail is damaged, it can sometimes be reconstructed by grafting tissue from other digits or a toe.
