What is wrong with my nail?

Asked by Carinaponcho (1381points) January 30th, 2013 from iPhone

My fingernail is painful to the touch. On the left side of my nail, there is something brown and yellow underneath. Also, the white of my nail gradually gets bigger as it goes towards that yellow area. The left side of my finger is red and painful, with skin peeling. I have been putting clear iodine and topical anti fungal medication on it for two weeks. I have also been putting Vic’s vaporub on it because my mother told me to. There has been a yellow and white goo oozing from it. What is wrong with my nail? How could I fix it?
