Darker coloring under nails…
Near the lunula and across the top of my nails the skin is darker. I think this is a sign of low blood oxygen. I went to my internist, they checked my oxygen and told me it is fine. I am assuming this is the early stage something. When the weather was bad the other day I felt a little breathy. I have had a few moments where I felt like I needed to take an extra breath. At this time it doesn’t affect my activity.
What should I be doing? Is this something I can do something about? I would prefer to take preventative measures? Should I be seeing a particular kind doctor for this? Should I be sleeping with oxygen?Female, 59 years old. My issues began with a drug reaction.

Mino certainly will do that but it usually takes a year or two before it happens.I had big blue spots on my legs,around the mouth and on my eye brows.It’s taken almost 4 years and it is much lighter now.I thought that by using doxy instead might do the trick and it does….sort of… it’s just lighter.The 2 meds are in the same family so it makes sense.
I would prefer to look like a Smerf to going back to where I was.November 14, 2019 at 9:40 pm #465035Spiffy1ModeratorThat is what I was thinking. That it might be hyperpigmentation.

You have not entered any info below your posts as to what disease you have.If it is SD bleed out from broken capillaries at the nail bed could be causing the problemNovember 16, 2019 at 10:58 am #465041mouseParticipantThank you Lynne for pointing that out!
