Discoloration in Nail
Hi I had recently done gel nail polish from a salone. But once the nail grew I could see discoloration under the nail and then once gel polish chipped off I noticed wider discoloration. There is no pain. However, a friend, a BHMS doctor asked me to see a dermatologist as there are cancerous discolorations related to nail related cancer. No pain normally or on touching and even on pressing. But I am little worried.
