[|Human|] Two years ago, I had a stent implant in my heart. When I got home from the hospital I noticed blood under the big toe nail. There was not injury to this toe. I eventually lost the nail. When the new nail was about halfway grown out, I lost the nail again. The third nail is again about halfway grown out and doesnt appear to be growing anymore. I dont know if the two things are related, but last night I woke up with my big toe (same toe) hurting badly. I couldnt stand the bedclothes on it. It is swollen and red today and still hurting. What is the problem?
[|AI|]  Hello and thank you for using Chat Doctor. I carefully read your question and I understand your concern. I will try to explain you something and give you my opinion. Having pains in your leg and finger and the lost of the nail is not normal. It means having problems with the blood supply of your extremities. The fact that you had implanted stents fortify this suspicion, because this means that you are diagnosed with coronary atherosclerosis, and you had stenosis in your coronary arteries. Whith the same mechanism you might have stenosis in the arteries that supply your extremities, and they are now offering from ischemia. So, I advise you to seek medical attention. If I was your treating doctor I would recommend a color Doppler of your extremities to evaluate possible stenosis and after that maybe an Anglo ct. After that we can judge how to deal with the problem. Hope I was helpful. Best regards, Chat Doctor.
