What's wrong with the black toenails on my big toes

Why does the thumb nail turn black? This is a situation that many people are prone to. In fact, most of the reasons are caused by onychomycosis, and onychomycosis is also relatively common. It can be treated with oral antifungal drugs. If you don’t understand the cause, you can go to the hospital for a doctor’s examination and medication treatment.

1. Onychomycosis: Don’t think that all onychomycosis is gray. In fact, some are black. It manifests as thickening of the nails or hollow white powder under the nails. 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 bruises : 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 matrix nevus: This type is also 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 may develop into a nail pigment tumor. The nail matrix nevus should be closely observed. If it is found to be larger or bleeding, it is considered to be a nail pigment tumor. You should go to the hospital in time to remove the nail, surgically remove the subungual tumor and do a pathological examination.

4. It indicates respiratory problems. In fact, it is blue (looks black). This type of person is prone to cardiovascular disease.

5. It should be noted 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 vitamins, such as Jinweita.

6. If the toenails turn black , you need to consider the possibility of toenail trauma or infection. If it is accompanied by pain, it is a symptom caused by trauma. You need to take blood-activating and analgesic capsules for treatment to avoid worsening of the disease and help your body recover. If there are no symptoms, you need to consider onychomycosis. Generally, you need to use topical compound povidone-iodine ointment for treatment, take itraconazole capsules orally, avoid eating spicy food and drinking, eat more vegetables and fruits, and there is no need to worry.
