Sore on side of thumb under nail?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sore under nail: Often lesions under fingernails are viral warts, but other conditions can cause persistent lesions under nails, including trauma, bone changes and some skin cancers. If the sore is persistent, it needs to be looked at by a dermatologist.
