The potential side effects of oral medication toenail fungus treatment products are the primary reason why many people choose not to use them. Although it has been said that these types of treatments are more effective on severe, deeply entrenched infections that some other treatment options, the idea that a product can be dangerous to use makes people nervous, and rightfully so. This post is just a short listing of some of those side effects and what type of people are a greater risk depending on previous medical conditions.

The answer is immediately! Once a nail fungus infection is discovered, everyday that it is allowed to go untreated is simply extending the amount of time you will need to eliminate it. If you detect an infection, find yourself a reputable nail fungus treatment and start the process. Fungi are live things that grow and multiply at great speed we the conditions are right. And living in a warm, protected and damp area underneath the nail beds of your toes is ideal for those little monsters! Small nail fungus infections are not nearly as difficult to treat as severe nail fungus conditions. Once the fungal agents have really dug in and gotten a grip on one or more toenails, you will never know how long it will take to fully kill the infection. Standard treatment times range from 4 weeks to a full year and beyond and the more severe the infection, the longer the treatment time.

The answer to this question is still unclear. Most forms of laser treatment have only provided the industry with small, poor-quality studies involving a small sample groups of patients with lighter cases of nail fungus, some of whom appeared to experience improvement after the treatment.
And while most studies have reported no adverse effects, the system zaps the nail fungus with very high heat, which in theory could damage healthy tissue around the toenail. In addition, many treatments can often cost up to or over $1,000 and most medical insurances do not cover these costs. And perhaps most disappointing is the fact that the majority of patients who tested and saw positive results from laser treatment had to return for additional treatments within 4-6 months. The idea of the “one-stop-shop” solution is evidently not the case.

 Our nails are made of keratin, which is similar in structure to bone but not the same. It works to protect parts of the skin and tends to be a telltale indicator for signs of internal problems.
Most people are familiar with nail fungus infections and some of the toenail fungus treatment options. A lot of people have them and they are caused by the fact that toes tend to spend a lot of time in dark, damp environments and come into contact with a lot of things that may be carriers for fungal spores. However fingernails can also become infected by fungus. The first sign of infection is usually the nail becoming discolored and then thickening, especially along the tips. This looks very unpleasant and is an embarrassment to people who suffer from it. Avoid painting your nails with fingernail polish if this occurs as the polish will seal in humidity and give the fungus a better breeding environment. Deciding that the problem “will go away on its own” is also a bad idea. Treating this fungus is the smartest thing you can do.
