What is the reason for the black and purple toenail?

1. Onychomycosis;

Don’t think that all onychomycosis is gray. In fact, some are also black. It manifests as thickening of the nail or hollow white powder under the nail. Oral antifungal drugs can be used for treatment, but the risk is relatively high. The best way is to use a packing treatment.

2. Subungual blood stasis;

Subungual bruises are common and are often caused by squeezing or collisions. Bruise under the toenails is sometimes caused by wearing high heels, standing or walking too much. This usually doesn’t need to be taken care of and will naturally get better after a few months.

3. Nail nevus;

This type is not uncommon; it often appears as a bundle of lines from the root to the tip of the nail; it is generally harmless to the human body; sometimes it develops into a nail pigment tumor; it should be closely observed. If it is found to be larger or bleeding, it is considered a nail pigment tumor, and you should go to the hospital in time to remove the nail, surgically remove the subungual tumor and do a pathological examination;

It suggests problems with the respiratory system, and is actually a bluish turn (which looks black), and this type of nail is prone to cardiovascular disease; it should be reminded that there are no nerves or blood vessels in the nail plate, so it will not bleed. The so-called subungual bleeding is actually subungual bleeding; no matter what type of nails turn black, it is beneficial to supplement with vitamins, such as Glavita.
