I used to have paronychia which is an infection at the nail fold/ where the the nail and skin meet. Thankfully the fluid drained and that’s over so ignore the purple tones on my toe, it’s just dried up ointment.

Anyway onto the point, I have recently noticed some sort of crack/split at the start of the nail near or on the cuticle. It scares me because i’m afraid that things could seep in and cause another infection.

I’m 14 going on 15 at the end of jan and my sweaty feet make me even more worried that i’ll get another infection. What do I do? My parents are sick of me calling into the doctors because of a bloody toe, it’s driving me nuts but I can’t help but be worried.. Please if you have any advice, know what this is or what I should do please comment!! Thanks a heap 🦶😫

Sorry for the gross close up of my toes, my big toe isn’t the only nasty one 🤮
