Blackening disfigurementupper toe nail
I have a feeling that my bone around the plantar fascia of both of my feet have become a bit enlarged, due to which I guess, whenever I run the big toe & the middle finger of both of my feet (More in left & less in right), starts getting painful and then eventually upper part of toe, gets black and then ultimately because of all that, the nail of of the big toe of left feet gets totally disfigured as much as the old nail got destroyed fully and now a less disfigured new nail is coming.
Even the middle finger of both of the feet is getting a bit disfigured.
Thanking you in anticipation, sir

The toe nail disfigurement is probably due to fungal infection, consult a dermatologist for confirmation. Also, you mentioned toe pain, from the images it looks like you have some swelling of your toes as well. The other possibility would be psoriatic arthritis or another joint disorder (gout etc).
Next Steps
consult a dermatologist (skin specialist) and a Rheumatologist (arthritis specialist) for correct diagnosis and treatment
