Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
There seems like a trauma or injury to your toes and the nails while playing. Continue to apply ice every hour for next few hours.
You can also apply, Thrombophob ointment for the colour to go away. Nothing to worry. It is most probably stasis of venous blood that should go away soon with continued ice application.
For pain relief, you can take a single tablet of Brufen after food.
Get well soon.
