Toenail issue
My smallest toenail has white growth under it. It is painless but the nail is slowly coming off the nail bed. What could it possibly be? I don't wear closed shoes and I haven't had any injury.

Hi, the white growth with the nail lifting off is often due to a fungal issue or minor trauma. Keep the area clean and dry, avoid picking at it. An antifungal cream or nail paint can help if confirmed.
Feel free to consult for further guidance.
