I've had a dark horizontal line across the nail bed of my second toe. i thought it was just an injury at first but it's been there for a few months?

Is it moving?: If growing out with the nail, that is getting further along with time, it was probably an injury and will ultimately disappear. If not, if it is staying still and especially if it seems to be getting larger, you need to see a dermatologist to be checked for melanoma. Good luck!
