usually, a fungal infection of toenail requires 3 months of treatment to be taken orally. I would like to rule out any ingrown toenail as per your symptom (pain while pressing the area). since its difficult to comment without examination, i would suggest you to consult a dermatologist for proper advise

Without seeing, it is very difficult to comment. Please send photos using online consult option for proper examination diagnosis and treatment
