Question 1

a small blue-green circular spot underneath my toenail, in the middle. i discovered it when i removed my polish. i also have vaginal candida. fungus?

Accepted Answer

Maybe: The two aren't related, however.  Which is to say, that the candida in your vagina is albicans (most typically) and the candida (if that's what it is) on your toenail would be a different species of candida. Unless you have diabetes or some other medical condition that puts you at risk for getting candida in multiple areas of the body at the same time, the 2 aren't related. There is cream for toe!

Question 2

Accepted Answer

A number of things: The toe nail is tightly adhered to the nail bed most of the time, but slight separations can allow bacteria and fungus to reside there.   This is usually not a major issue, depending upon your symptoms.   A bacteria known as Psuedomonas Aeruginosa has such a pigment and can show up in a number of places, even a bar of soap. If symptoms presents, simple treatment includes Antibioics and topicals.
