What Is The Solution For Blue Discoloration On Toes?
Hey! I am a teenager and I played softball during the spring of this year!!! Toward April or so, I realized that my two big toes were hurting really bad and people kept stepping on them. It became to be so for a while. Now it s December and my pain in my toe been stop hurting, but it is still a dark blue and green color until my two big toenails. I m scared to go to the doctor becaue I dont want them to take my pretty toe nail off. What should I do and is it bad?

Hello,
It can be a contusion and collected blood which is causing bluish discolouration. As of now you can apply icepacks for faster recovery.
Generally the lesion will heal by itself. If bluish colour persists better to consult an orthopedic and plan for an X-ray to rule out fracture even though the chare very low.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
