My bearded dragons nail on her front paw has been disconncted with the hollow cartilidge like substance behind the nail. I asked a vet today and they gave me a stick to use around the wound to close it up and then to use neosporin on it for a week. Does this sound right?
I looked at it a minute ago and the black nail is now facing in one direction and the hollow cartilidge is facing the other way.

Hello,

Could you post a picture of that for us, that would help alot. How did she injure her nail bed like that?
Has there been any blood involved?

Ok I will, whenever I find some sort of camera I'll post it.
I don't know she jumps from her basking log to her food dish so maybe she landed weird I don't know. It's not bleeding, but you see a little red where the nail was.
Today I noticed the black nail had fallen out but the hollow cartilidge is still there.
I've been putting neosporin on it yesterday and I'm going too again tonight.

I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
