Fungal nail infection or psoriatic nail?

Can anyone give any advice on what this might be? Hard to get a good photo but it's basically raised, discoloured and looks like it's coming away at the side. There's also slight pitting.

It's my index finger. I have symptoms of psoriatic arthritis in that finger (which is why I thought it might be psoriatic nail) but could it be a fungal nail infection? It doesn't smell, it hasn't be inflamed and my hands haven't been damp.

I'm struggling to get a Dr's appointment to check it out.

No advice sorry but a pharmacist could probably diagnose? Or can you email the photos to your GP?

Thank you- pharmacist is a really good idea actually. I'm really struggling to get in focus photos for the Dr!
