Most green nails are caused by bacteria (Pseudomonas), not fungus. But patients don’t know that, and that is why you start here.
We examine your nail, determine whether it is bacterial, fungal, or mixed, and prescribe the right treatment.
Green nail is not a single condition. It has three possible causes. We determine which one you have.
Caused by the Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria. The bacteria produce a green pigment called pyocyanin. This is not fungus.
Certain fungi (Candida, dermatophytes) can cause yellow-green discoloration. This requires antifungal medication.
Patients searching for green nail treatment or green fingernail treatment often have one or more of these symptoms:
You searched for green nail syndrome treatment or green nail bacteria. The first step is knowing what you have.
Green color from Pseudomonas looks different from fungal discoloration.
Diabetes, moisture exposure, trauma, or artificial nails increase risk.
We may clip a small sample to confirm bacteria or fungus under a microscope.
Uncontrolled diabetes or poor circulation can make nail infections worse and harder to treat.
Your treatment depends on what is causing the green discoloration. We prescribe based on diagnosis, not guesswork.
You shouldn’t have to wait weeks for Diabetes Treatment or feel rushed by a provider who doesn’t listen. That’s why we built Glow differently.
Nail infection does not improve after 4–6 weeks of treatment.
