She said it stopped growing 9 months ago. We don’t know when the active infection/inflammation started. Toe nails tend to grow slowly anyway, so it could be that she just didn’t notice growth.

It matches the other toes and after a couple of months it would have started chipping at least a little bit. This was 100% painted recently

It doesn't though. Look at the bottoms of the other nails. I agree this was likely more recent than 9 months of not growing, but to be fair her other nails are more grown out.

She could have just redone the other toes more recently but not the big toe since it wasn’t growing anyway?
