Shift your free hand to the top of your belly and slide it down the side to feel for the baby's back. If that side is smooth and has even resistance to pressure, that's the back. If you can press in further, it's uneven and you feel a lot of movement, that's the front of the baby.
An injury â Bruising or a collection of blood under the toenail can cause the nail to appear dark with black, blue and purple shades of color. Often called âRunnerâs toeâ itâs caused by an injury or trauma to the toe. Cancer â A scary thought but it is a very rare condition. Cancer occurring in the nail bed and the surrounding area will show up as dark, tan and or black spots underneath your toenails or fingernails.
Your feet also swell during a walk or run and get compressed by your socks and shoes. That pressure and impact can damage your toenail beds, or create a blister under the toenail itself. When this happens, the extra blood and fluid cause your toenail to separate from the toenail bed. The blood colors the toenail black. Your toenail will probably continue to change colors during this process.
