Black Nails

Black nails are normally harmless and go away on their own.
Black nails are normally harmless and the color typically goes away on its own.

Black or purple nails are common after an injury. The dark color is a sign that blood is pooling under the nail, and typically this is no reason to worry. The color should return back to normal on its own after a few weeks. If it doesn’t, you may need to have the blood drained by a doctor. If you didn’t have an injury, and your nail looks black, this could be a sign of melanoma.
