Fungal nail treatment
Fungal nail treatment involves using medications to eliminate fungal infections that cause nails to become discolored, thickened, or brittle. This can include topical treatments like antifungal nail lacquers or creams applied directly to the nail, as well as oral antifungal medications for more severe cases. Treatment duration varies, often taking several months due to the slow growth of nails. Consistent use is essential for success, and in some cases, damaged nails may need removal. Maintaining good foot hygiene and keeping nails dry can help prevent future infections. Consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice and appropriate treatment options.
