Sometimes I was in the same situation as you. I've heard that some factors (like eczema, fungal infections, diabetes, nail trauma or chemicals) can contribute to the reason. In my case, when I removed the white part, it hurt for a while, but after I applied some antifungal cream, my nail started to grow again. Someone told that washing your hands with lukewarm, salt water for 15 minutes every day could be helpful. Besides, always keep your hands dry and clean, avoid wearing rubber gloves, and choose antimicrobial hand hygiene products.
