Toenail fungus or trauma?

Posted , 3 users are following.

It has been like this for about two months. I've never had foot fungus before. My dog has a habit of stepping on my feet which might have caused trauma. For comparison, right toe is normal. Treatment suggestions would be fantastic. Thanks!image

    I don't think that a step from your dog would be able to cause trauma to your nail. Although it doesn't look like any nail fungus that I've seen, you'd better see a dermatologist.
