🦶 LET’S TALK: SUBUNGUAL HEMATOMA 🩸
Ever noticed a dark spot or discoloration underneath your toenail after an injury? It could be a subungual hematoma — bleeding beneath the nail, often caused by trauma or pressure.
Common causes include:
👟 Tight-fitting footwear
⚽ Sports injuries
🦶 Stubbing your toe
🔁 Repetitive pressure
While many subungual hematomas grow out naturally with the nail, persistent pain, swelling, nail lifting, or changes that don’t improve should be assessed by a foot-care professional.
If you’ve noticed a change in your toenail or are unsure what’s causing it, we’re here to help! 💚
📅 Book an appointment with our in-house chiropodist for an assessment.
