This is paronychia. An infection of the tissue folds around the nails. Paronychia is an infection of the tissue adjacent to a nail, most often a fingernail. It's caused by injury or irritation, such as a hangnail, cuticle damage or continually wet hands.
Consult a Dermatologist for the same to prevent further progression of the infection.
