There's a fungus among us.My big toenail has been slightly raised and green and now it is slit 1/4 of the way on the bottom what do i do?
um, go to a doctor. its an infection. seriously people, are you going to just sit there on the internet and let a rabid dog chew your face off and ask answers what to do? go to the doctor, common sense.My big toenail has been slightly raised and green and now it is slit 1/4 of the way on the bottom what do i do?
it's a fungus, get a doctors appointment, it's nearly impossible to cure it at home
It is definitely an infection, possibly a fungal infection. If the problem is just with the nail and the toe itself is not painful or discolored, you should see a board-certified dermatologist immediately.





If you have cut or injured your toe and the entire area (not just the nail) is inflamed, painful, and/or discolored, see your family doctor immediately or go to the emergency room of a well-respected teaching hospital near you. I don't know where you live, but I am talking about places like UCLA, Stanford University Hospital, Johns Hopkins in Baltimore, the University of Virginia Hospital, the Cleveland Clinic, etc.





Good luck.
