The image above captures a painful and advanced ingrown toenail infection<\/strong> with visible greenish-yellow pus draining from the side of the nail. The swelling, redness, and fluid buildup are strong signs of a bacterial infection known as paronychia<\/strong> or a toenail abscess.<\/p>\n

When the edge of the nail grows into the surrounding skin, it creates an opening for bacteria to enter. Over time, the infection worsens, leading to pressure buildup and the formation of pus. The green tint often indicates a deeper or more aggressive infection that requires proper medical treatment.<\/p>\n
