Answer 1

It sounds like Nick is suffering from a infection of some sort. The name of this infection he may be suffering from is onychomycosis.

Answer 2

Nick may be suffering from a fungal infection.

Step-by-step explanation:

A fungal nail infection affects the hard material (keratin) that causes the nails. This type of infection develops slowly and causes the nail to discolor, become thickened and distorted. Toenails are affected more often than nails. Onychomycosis is the doctor's name for a fungal nail infection.

Nick's nail is showing discoloration. For this reason, we can assume that Nick has a fungal infection.
