Rotten nail... Advice please :)

When I was cutting Wilm's nails earlier, I noticed that the little nail on the inside of his front leg (the hidden one) has turned black and looks, well, rotten. Kind of like a human nail does when it gets trapped.

Any advice?
 
Could it just be the pigment has changed?

Maybe, but it's kind of all dry and looks dead, it's also not grown at all whereas the one on the other leg has as normal. He's in no pain though, he let me touch it no problem.
 
I wonder if he has pulled it off at some point and this is now what it looks like as its growing back. They often look pretty mank when they do that.
