Poor Tera! It certainly sounds like there may be a nail bed infection of some kind, either yeast or bacterial. I would recommend taking her to the vet to have this checked. He/she can take a sample of the discharge for testing if needed to help diagnose the problem and get her started on appropriate medication to treat it.
