Lukovital Fungal Nail Treatment

Fungal nail infection

Fungal nail infection, also known as Onychomycosis is a chronic fungal infection of the toenails or fingernails. It is a relatively common disease and usually not a serious condition, but it can be unpleasant and unattractive. Fungal nails are thickened, brittle, crumbly or ragged, distorted in shape, dull, with no shine, can be painful and can have a slightly foul odor.

What causes Fungal nail infection?

Fungi are normally present in and on the body. When fungus begins to overgrow a nail infection can develop. Most commonly, the fungus invades the nail and nail bed by penetrating at the sides of the nails. In other cases, it invades the nail plate directly from above, resulting in a powdery, white, patchy discoloration of the nail surface. Fungi thrive in warm, moist environments. The prevalence of fungal nail infections rises with age. Other risk factors are:

• Spread from a fungal skin infection such as athlete’s foot and ringworm;
• An illness or medications that suppress the immune system;
• Diabetes mellitus;
• Living in a warm, humid climate;
• Participation in athletic/sporting activities, regular communal bathing and occlusive footwear;
• A recently damaged nail.

is not needed to file the nails, although to achieve faster, better results, carefully filing the fungal nail once a week is recommended. As one of the causes of fungal nail infections is a moist environment, it is highly recommended to always wear socks of absorbent and natural material such as cotton or wool. Socks made of these natural materials absorb more moisture. This is very important as fungi like high moisture environments so they can multiply. When suffering of fungal nail, it is important to keep feet dry.
