Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having fungal infections of nails giving this problem.
There might be having bacterial infection as well.
It will give more clue if seen personally.
Consult your doctor and get physically examined.
After proper clue about your problem, treatment can be started accordingly.
Ok and take care.
