Let's say you're taking a bad component off a board and when you try to pull your desoidering ribbon up, part of the trace comes up with it. Oops! The trace isn't damaged (whew!) and you go ahead and put everything together and it works, but now you got this loose trace you're fearing.

Question: is there anyway to reattach the trace to the board? Or would I be better off just leaving it as is? It's not a huge piece of the trace, but I don't like leaving things to chance.
