You more than likely dropped something on your toe or somehow injured it causing blood to form under the nail. Chances are that in time you will be losing this nail. It will just drop off when it grows past the part that is injured. I had this same problem last year. It started to come loose and would not fall off on it's own and an odor started to develop from under it. Had the emerg. Doc remove it and no problem since.

since this is in the injuries catagory i'm guessing you jammed your toe or dropped something on it? don't worry. the yellow is probably bruising and the black is blood pooling under the nail. you may lose it(the nail) and you may not.

Go to a podiatrist before it's too late. I had the same problem years ago and my nails died and fell off. It takes years for the nail bed to harden up after that.

Nailbed fungus. Lamisil(scrip) is the only drug that will cure it. The brush on OTC stuff does not go under the nailbed and will not destroy same.
