What is a blood clot under the nail plate referred to as?

  1. Infected nail

  2. Nail tumor

  3. Bruised nail

  4. Split nail

The correct answer is: Bruised nail

A blood clot under the nail plate is not referred to as an infected nail as an infected nail would involve redness, swelling, and pain. In addition, a nail tumor would be the growth of abnormal tissue rather than a blood clot. A split nail would refer to the separation of the nail plate from the nail bed. Therefore, the correct term for a blood clot under the nail plate is a bruised nail.
