Toenail turned yellow

2020-02-09 18:49:35
After removing nail paint last week I have developed a yellow toenail. It now pains slightly while walking or when wearing closed shoes. I have tried warm water and baking soda immersion, but it's not working. Should I continue this or try something else ?
