My 6 years daughter got her finger stuck in door 3 months ago (Aug'23) and her nail got dark blue/black.
It's been 3 months, the colour of nail is still black and there is no pain as such (photo attached).
Doctor gave her moxclav antibiotics at that time (as she also had throat infection).
Will it black colour go away with time?
Please guide 🙏

if your daughterâs nail has remained discolored for three months after the injury, itâs advisable to consult with a Dermatologistt. We can examine the condition, assess the healing progress, and provide guidance on whether the discoloration will resolve over time or if further intervention is needed.
