Green spot under acrylic nail. Some nail fungus from artificial acrylic nails may cause the natural nail to detach from its nail bed. This green spot is a bacteria. Patients likely have a history of prolonged exposure to water or detergents.

This green stain on the nail plate is actually Pseudomonas bacterial infection. The bacteria nestles in the gap between the nail and nail bed where it produces a green pigment. Occasionally you might find that the whole nail and even the skin around the nail may be affected.

Green nail syndrome is caused by infection with Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The green discoloration varies from blue-green to dark green to bluish-grey. I was just wondering if any of you with acrylic overlay on your nails has had this problem.

The discoloration is a stain in the keratin of your nail thats caused by a by-product of the bacteria. The bacteria has grown because it has found a nice damp dark area to live and thrive. Once you get the product off your nail wash it with soap and water douse it in Bactine or Peroxide take your hair dryer to it and make sure its dry.

Although this green discoloration may have the appearance of a mold this is NOT a mold. And this green discoloration varies from blue-green to dark green to bluish-grey and the discoloration depends on the extent of infection. Dab a thin layer of Neosporin or antibiotic ointment onto the nail bed.
