What Causes Greenish Purple Spot Under Toe Nail?
Hi, I had a greenish-purple spot under my toenail and since I bump it into places all the time and I was wearing nail polish I couldn t be sure if it was hematoma or not and I was not aware of the possibility of melanoma at the time so I did not check to for any sings. The nail on the spot got detached and now the spot is getting smaller and smaller as my toenail grows. So can you tell me if it was just hematoma or could it be melanoma?
