Hello.
Thanks for choosing HealthcareMagic forum.
Changing of the colour of your toenails is just a chance finding and it has not happened overnight. The orange coloration may be due to exposure to some chemical or due to lack of proper protein and calcium in your diet. There is nothing to worry and try to improve your diet.
