Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi,

It may be subungual hematoma...means the blood collected underneath the nail. The colour is due to the blood. The cause may be trivial trauma to the nail. There is no need to worry. The condition may gradually be reduced as the nail progresses. If there is pain, take pain killer like brufen. Take tab vitamin C 1000 mg daily.

Hope this helps.
