What Causes A Gray Spot,pain And Bruise On Toe Nail?

My large toe nail has had a gray spot on about a 1/3 of the nail for about a month or so. At first I thought I might have smashed it but don t remember such an incident. Today was walking around and it started to hurt. Is this a bruise under the nail it is a little tender when I press on the nail. Can you give an idea what could be causing this.
