Whats up with my nail??

[mosschops30]

Its gross, on my big toe. Its gone a funny colour and sort of thick and theres all black stuff underneath.
Do I need to see the dr or the chiropodist? Can i still go swimming this week?

[MrsBadger]

have you bashed it recently?
if not sounds like a fungal infection - sorry
go swimming but see the GP.

(antifungals usually cheaper on prescription - cost a fortune OTC)

[Idreamofdaleks]

fungal infection - this is quite common

bugger, trying to see the GP, I'd have more chance of a personal audience with the pope

someone on another thread used teatree oil. be warned it takes months to work cos the infected bit has to grow out and you can't apply nailpolish.

i go some stuff from the doctor which appears to be working.

[mosschops30]

theyre a lovely red colour at the moment!!
