"Diagnosing and treating a nail fungus forms part of a dermatologist's work. Effective treatments are provided once you have been examined by one of our fully trained Dermatologists."
Treating Fungal skin infections
Fungal skin infections
Fungal skin infections of the toenail occur because there are many different types of fungi – yeasts and moulds – in the daily environment. Small cracks in the skin can allow these germs to enter nails and cause an infection. It is for this reason that it is important to keep your hands and feet clean and dry as it helps prevent fungi from forming. Not walking barefoot around the changing room at the gym is just one way to limit fungal skin infections, but it’s not always so simple..
Nail fungus treatments will usually take some time before the effects of treatment can be seen. It is important that even if the nail fungus is not irritating or causing pain, it is treated as quickly as possible. In some rare cases, if it is left too long, the only course of action may be to remove the nail permanently, so it is important to take action before a chronic infection occurs.
When treating nail funguses there are a range of different treatments that include oral antifungal drugs, medicated nail polishes and medicated nail creams. Depending on the severity of the nail fungus it may be necessary to temporary remove the nail so the anti-fungal treatment can be applied directly to the infection under the nail.
If your nails are not looking healthy, you may have a fungal skin infection. The best thing to do is book a consultation with a Dermatologist at Eudelo where we can quickly assess the type of fungal infection and treat the nail in the most appropriate way.
