Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have dark discoloration on the toe . Well the symptoms you mention in query can occur due to may reasons like onychomycosis with pseudomonas infection of nail.

The symptoms can also occur due to diabetic foot , fungal infection and diabetic foot .

In some cases plantar warts or corns also occur , which is the thickened layer of horny skin between the nerve-bearing tissues and the ground, simple nontraumatic removal of this material is a good alternative.

Another technique to remove the excess keratin is an over-the-counter salicylic acid preparation .


Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
