A few months ago, he suddenly noticed he had this thing.

Since then, it has been there for months.

It still looks weird though.

Damn, I can't autofocus my fingernail >_<

I had something like that once in college. Then a fungal infection started (or showed up), yellow/brownish. Eventually consumed my entire fingernail and peeled off, leaving a small new nail in my fingernail bed that over 1-2 months grew back into normal.

By the time I talked to my doctor about it, it already was growing back. She said that I could have even just dipped my finger into bleach to kill it earlier. That makes sense, but a little harsh.

Edit:
I just remembered some more details. It started with a black line that grew in the center of my nail. Either starting from the bottom or top, I don't remember. Was kind of irritating. That line grew for a month before the infection showed up. Not sure about the causality - if whatever that black line was caused by the infection or allowed it to infect.

Could mean a lot of things from something simple like vitamin deficiencies to something fucked up like blood flow problems. Fingernails are actually used to predict overall health patterns so I suggest you get yourself checked out.

My boss had something like this, some problems with is heart or something.

You probably touched another pene.

You should get that checked out. Could be a melanoma.

Hmm... so I am limiting it to carpal or trauma... and possibly nail-biting. Because I love to bite my thumb. Don't ask.
