Why is my fingernail on my middle finger starting to pull away from my skin and turn white and the bottom half is pitting and peeling? What could this be?
My figernails are separating from the nail beds and falling off. When I brought this up to my oncologist, he stated that it was from the Taxotere. I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem occur and what they've done for it.
Thanks!
Forgive me if I am wrong but is the blood stream not just that i.e if you bleed then the item/object eg the fingernail has penetrated direct into your blood stream? Please explain as this is very concerning for me after being scratched when shaking hands and it caused me to bleed quite a bit from my finger.
Two months ago I trapped my finger stupidly in the door (where the hinges are) and today the nail finally fell off. I have added a photo as I am not sure if everything is ok. I guess what is the nail is growing back but its like a half inch bump in the middle of the nail, Could anyone recommend if I should leave nature take it's course, or should I see a doctor?
My fingernail had a tingle to it and when I pressed down it looked like more blood came out. I dont know if I was cut by my own fingernail and/or he was cut inside is anus. I truly believe I had a cut under my finger AND he was cut inside his anus as well and there was blood. I just sent him a text to clarify his status and he said that he is HIV+. What do I do bc I am freaking out? Should I get testing? Was this a risk?
My fingertips on my right hand have severe pain. It started in my pointer finger. I thought it might be ingrown fingernail so I used fingernail clippers to get it out(with no success of seeing signs of ingrown fingernail).. well each day i woke up it was in a different fingertip. This lasted about a week and went away. It came back a few weeks ago but much worse. All my fingertips are sore, but the severity of it moves every couple days to a new finger.
Could this be a type of fingernail material growing from the scalp? The physical consistency of this 'hair' strongly resembles that of a fingernail. Extensive searching the net has found nothing. Surely my daughter is not the only case like this. I read about keratin, but it seems the keratin in hair and nails is the same.
so somehow you got blood under your fingernail but never saw it until the fingernail grew enough to see it. How do you know it was even blood?
You had no risk.
I was poking at a small scab on my shaft and used my fingernail to pop a small blister. I then put some soap on turned on the water and started to lather my hand, but then before I could get the water on my hand my fingernail I was using dug into my other hands skin and broke the skin and drew blood. I washed my hands for about a min but my question is I had blister waterish on my fingernail and went into skin. Could have I just transferred the fluid into my skin ?
Obtaining sample nail clippings and sending it off for a fungal culture can confirm the diagnosis of an infection. If present, then appropriate anti-fungal medications should be started.
There are also various rheumatological diseases that can present with fingernail symptoms, and if suspected, various anti-antibody tests can be done as well as a referral to a rheumatologist.

Ever since I can remember, on my thumbnail and big-toe nail, there has been a strange deterioration. It looks like a series of grooves in the center of the nail (see attached pictures). My fingernails aren't weak or brittle and they're not really falling off or anything. I don't think it's anything serious, but I've always been curious what it is. If anybody could help at all, that would be great.
Around three years ago, I mashed my left thumb at work. This caused the fingernail to bruise and eventually come off. However, it has never grown back right. It has yellowing underneath the nail, like a fungus which the dermatologist tested for and was negative, and whiteness on top where the nail looks dead, and you can see the new nail underneath. The doctor didn't think I had damaged the nail bed because it was growing out straight, but is funny looking.
I bite my fingernails off and one of my cuticles is really red and sore. Almost like an open sore. It looks like it's on the verge of bleeding. Well, I inserted that finger inside another guy's ***. Is that a risk?
i realized there was no pleasure in that and when she got off of me I noticed the condom had come off. I was horrieifed and have since have had some symptoms i've read about that are associated with HIV. like swollen lymph nodes, red throat, night sweats and tingling in the face and head. I took a test about 2 months after the event and it was negative..should i take another?
thanks for your advice.
I have a fair number of small moles, although nothing out of the ordinary. Today, when I was in the shower and the water hit my back, I felt a sharp pinch, as though I'd been bitten. It was in a spot I couldn't see, and when I reached to feel it, it felt like something small was sticking out of my skin. I took a look in the mirror, and (sorry, this is pretty gross) it looked like there had been a pimple or a big blackhead and it was...half out. Ew.
I am a man, I had sexual relations with a man. My penis into his anus and use a condom. When I finally pulled out of the penis, cover has come off. Only pull the penis out, condom stayed inside his anus. Finally out and I don't know what cover is off or in the anal came off in the process. Does this count as unprotected anal sex?
my boyfriend and I have been dating for five months. Yeah sure we fool around. Well one night, he is fingering my vagina and he accidently cuts the outside with his nail. Day later I started my period. This wasn't an issue until a few days ago when I was changing a tampon and the place here he cut me started stinging really bad. I necked it out and even showed my mom. There is a cut with little bumps around it. It itches so badly.
hey. i've been having pvc's and my doctor put me on toprol XL 25 mg/day and they stopped for awhile and i weaned myself off the toprol. needless to say, the pvc's came back 3 weeks later. i also noticed lately that my fingernail beds are really pale but at the end behing the white part it is a dark pink. does anybody else notice this? i know that nails can give clues to health problems and i read that it can be related to heart problems.
Hello,
Last night I was at a strip club with some friends and I got a lap dance from one of the girls. My finger was dry and the skin below the fingernail area was peeling so there was a small cut. I don't believe it was bleeding at the time, however the outer layer of my skin is peeled off and you can see the red skin beneath. I have done some research and searched the forums but I could not find a similar question.
Can HIV be transmitted if semen got underneath a fingernail? In otherwords, is the tissue underneath the fingernail vulnerable to passing HIV into the blood stream?
Do you think the virus will transfer from my hand to zipper to then underneath my fingernail? Is it possible to get underneath the fingernail from a small metal zipper?
m not sure if the area between my skin and fingernail came in touch with her fluids but a little while later (not sure how long) the area of the fingernail at the cuticle hardened and raised a little bit. the area wasn't discolored at all. it actually looked like a callus and at the time i thought it was a callus that had hardened around the area until it healed. but now i just wanted to make sure that it wasn't an std or something.
The back of my two bottom teeth are peeling off at the gum. If I took my fingernail, I could pull part of my tooth off. I can't see back there to see what is happening and it doesn't hurt. Help!
