Hi,
It may be fungal and pseudomonas infection of nail. Consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment.
I would recommend you to apply antifungal like clotrimazole lotion and antibacterial like Clindamycin lotion on nails twice a day. And Take antifungal cap itraconazole 100 mg daily for few months.
Hope this helps.
