How To Treat Ridges In The Nail Caused Due To An Injury?

I have a nail that is sunken vertically. My brother had slammed this finger in the car door when I was 4 years old. I am now 55 years old. I was wondering if that is the reason it has now sunken in. This is the only nail that is sunken in. Thank you.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, the old history may not be the cause and it is nothing to take any thing with this but more it seems to be fungal infection of nail and it need to be ruled out for best treatment hope this information helps.
