Shift your free hand to the top of your belly and slide it down the side to feel for the baby's back. If that side is smooth and has even resistance to pressure, that's the back. If you can press in further, it's uneven and you feel a lot of movement, that's the front of the baby.
Dark Skin â If you have dark skin (African American or black people) it is not uncommon to have tan or dark lines running down your fingernails or toenails. Thought the possibility for cancer should not be ignored. Fungus â A fungal nail infection can cause discoloration of fingernails and toenails. Toenail fungus can cause the nail to appear dark even black. Often though there will be other shades of yellow and green associated with fungus.
Onychomycosis is the medical term for fungal infections of the fingernails and toenails. Infections of the fingernails or toenails can cause irritating symptoms such as pain, redness and itching. Although infections can be caused by yeast and molds, most infections are from a fungus group known as dermatophytes. Itching occurs when the fungus causes irritation and damage to your skin. Factors that allow fungus to proliferate will also lead to an increase in symptoms such as itching.
