The following methods are effective fungal nail infection treatment options:
• Oral antifungal drugs like terbinafine (Lamisil) and itraconazole (Sporanox), which help cure nail fungus and regrow healthy nails. These forms of nail fungus medicine often take up to 4 months to be effective.
• Medicated nail polish, which can be applied to the nail and its surrounding areas. Ciclopirox (Penlac) is often prescribed by doctors for nail fungus treatment.
• Medicated nail cream can be applied after soaking to thin the nails and enhance absorption.
Fungal nail infections are caused by various types of fungi including dermatophytes, molds and yeast. The condition is common among older adults, as blood circulation and immunity is lowered with age. Walking barefoot in moist and warm communal areas like swimming pools, shower rooms and gyms can help create the perfect breeding ground for fungus to grow.
What starts off as a small yellow or white spot on the tip of the fingernail or toenail can end up spreading to deeper layers and cause hard, discolored, disfigured, and brittle nails.
Leaving nail fungus intreated can cause the fungus to spread to other toes. Cracks in the nails can allow for more fungus and bacteria to grow in already infected nails. It can also lead to several complications including cellulitis, severe infection and permanent damage.
Nail fungus can take up to 4 months to go away, or as long as it takes for a new, healthy nail to replace the old, infected one.
