What Causes Left Foot Toe Nail Discoloration And Pain?
I have pain in my left foot, mainly the big toe. There is a black line in the nail and the bed looks dark. It feels as if there is a cut under the nail. Also the toe next to it is sore. Had a pedicure 4 weeks ago and am wondering if it could be something I got from that?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if the whole foot is painful then it may not be the nail condition alone cause the pain unless it is the infection, you can try the anti-inflammatory drug on tentative basis and best drug is Tab Ibuprofen 200 mg three times in day, try to keep the foot in elevated condition at the time of sleeping, hope this information helps.
