Please help me. A heavy iron block fell on my toe. And the nail has turned blue. It was paining h lot 4 days ago when the incident took place. I took a pain killer that day because the pain was in bearable. The nail started bleeding today when stuck with something. I think the nail would come out now. What should I do?
