DISCOLORED TOENAILS: THIS COULD BE A FUNGAL INFECTION OF THE AFFECTED NAILS. SEE A DERMATOLOGIST WHO WILL PROBABLY TAKE A CULTURE AND DETERMINE IF IT IS IN FACT A FUNGAL (RINGWORM) INFECTION AT WHICH TIME HE OR SHE WILL PRESCRIBE APPROPRIATE MEDICATION.

Both big toenails discolored and multiple layered nails on top of each other. Worried it may be toe fungus. May have had my toes stepped on in the past. The toe problems have been occurring for a few years now. Not really experiencing pain?
I can not bend the joint of my big toe (the joint closest to my toenail) And the top of my left foot hurts most of the time especially at night. Why?
