Brown toenail w/pai: May be a hematoma collection of blood under the toe nail due to trauma( like running) , or fungus rarely if the brown area did not change in 2-4 monthe may be melanoma ( very rarely) Would follow up with podiatrist. https://www.drugs.com/health-guide/toenail-fungus-onychomycosis.html
