Nail Fungal Treatment
Nail fungus is a common condition that begins as a white or yellow spot under the tip of your fingernail or toenail. As the fungal infection goes deeper, nail fungus may cause your nail to discolor, thicken and crumble at the edge. It can affect several nails.
People who have diabetes, athlete’s foot, or a weak immune system, who smoke, or whose family members have it are also at a higher risk. Nail fungus is also called onychomycosis (on-ih-koh-my-KOH-sis). When fungus infects the areas between your toes and the skin of your feet, it’s called athlete’s foot (tinea pedis)
With our dermatologist’s help, we can do proper diagnosis and treatment depending on which fungus you have and how bad the infection is.
How do you get Nail Fungus?
You’re more like to get toenail fungus if you spend a lot of time in the water or you’ve injured your toenail. If your nail fungus is painful and has caused thickened nails, self-care steps and medications may help. But even if treatment is successful, nail fungus often comes back.
What type of treatments are available?
- A topical cream that goes directly on the nail
- A topical nail lacquer
- An antifungal prescription pill
- Removing the damaged area of the nail or skin
- In some cases, you might need to have the nail removed completely with surgery.
- For medical examination and treatment
