Nail Fungus
Fungus is present in our environment. With trauma to the nails, fungus can enter and develop underneath the nails causing infection of the nail beds. This in turn causes the nails to become thickened, raised and yellow in color.
Toe fungus often begins as infection of the surrounding skin called tinea pedis (athlete’s foot). Overtime, it grows underneath the naisl, causing the nail infection. This condition affects people of all ages.
Treatment of fungal nails can be topical, oral, or nail matrixectomy (entire nail removal).
