Subungual

I thought I had a fungal infection in my left ring finger about 5 yrs the nail was split .

After a crush injury the nail did not grow back properly and just had an ulcerated appearance. It bled if I bumped it but was not sore.

After 2 yrs I went to a consultant who removed the nail and It tested positive for subungal melanoma. 2 weeks later I had the finger removed down to the second joint and my lymph nodes removed for testing.

Today, 3 weeks later they informed me all tests were clear and I don t need a Petscan, just a check up every 6 months!
