Brief Answer:
very probable fungal infection
Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome.
Yes, it definitely looks like fungal nail infection and treatment is required. This is severe case and even partial nail ablation can be considered. You need to see dermatologist or foot specialist for further evaluation and treatment. Increase in shoe size is caused by toe tip oedemea and swelling and hypertrophy due to infection. Wish you good health. Regards
