A year ago I purchased a Mikospor set. The price is $20, but it is a very effective treatment for nail fungus!
I treated the nail like this: first I filed off the entire surface of the nail as much as possible with a nail file. Then, according to the instructions, I applied the cream (the instructions contain a detailed description with pictures), and fixed it with adhesives that come with the kit. IMPORTANT: The patch does not stick well, it comes off, but you only need to use it, so I additionally fixed the patch from the kit with a purchased fabric-based patch in a skein (ask the pharmacy which patch is best to stick on). I changed the patch in the morning and evening. When I removed the patch, I scraped off the nail with a special brush from the set, and my own manicure tongs, files - in short, everything that would help remove the ENTIRE nail, without leaving the slightest piece. If some piece remains, the treatment will not be successful, unfortunately. If you damage the skin and bleed while scraping your nail, treat it with hydrogen peroxide. It took me 2 weeks to remove the nail (I repeat, in the morning I scrape the nail, apply cream, fix it with a band-aid, in the evening I remove the band-aid, scrape off the nail, apply cream, fix it with a band-aid, etc.) Sometimes when I removed the band-aid, my legs floated in the saturated saline solution, and then removed the nail. After the nail was gone, I still applied the cream for another week and fixed it with a band-aid, I just didn’t scrape anything off. Then, according to the instructions, apply regular mycospor cream twice a day (if you have any left over from the kit, apply it), but I applied clotrimazole, since it was clotrimazole that cured my foot fungus. This went on for 3 months (the first month - 2 times a day, the second - 1 time a day, the third, to tell the truth, whatever happens). And now the nail began to grow evenly and healthy. DO NOT STOP TREATMENT when you see that the nail is growing healthy - I still advise you to apply the cream. I have had a healthy nail for a year now, there is no relapse, I do not use antifungal agents. Although, the cured nail began to grow in, but I coped with it!
Finally, I will say that a prerequisite for defeating nail fungus is systematicity, be patient. The set, as she claimed, did not help my friend with Mycospor nail fungus, and then it turned out that she did not clean the entire nail off the nail fold. I insisted on repeated treatment, supporting her with my positive example - and now, she is growing a healthy nail!! I wish you the same victory over nail fungus!! If you have any questions, please contact me!
Fungal infection of the nails is called “onychomycosis”, from the ancient Greek words for “nail” (ones, onihos) and “mushroom” (mukes). In Russia, every tenth visit to a dermatologist is caused by a fungal nail disease.
This widespread problem is explained by the incredible survival of pathogens, among which the first place is occupied by microscopic dermatophyte fungi.
They affect not only nails, but also skin and hair, but it is on the nails that the disease is most persistent and aesthetically unpleasant.
Currently, there are various medications to treat fungus that can be easily found in the pharmacy. For fingernail and toenail fungus, products in the form of ointments, drops or gels are more suitable.
However, when there is an urgent need to treat nail fungus, but there is no money or time to visit a doctor, then natural remedies can be used. One of the most accessible and effective is apple cider vinegar.
The main effect of using vinegar is the creation of an acidic environment in the area of fungal infection, which prevents the growth of hyphae and the spread of spores. Gradually, the fungus, left without access to new sources of nutrients, dies.
Apple cider vinegar combined with these natural ingredients is an ideal remedy for treating onychomycosis. Here is a recipe for an effective mixture against fungus.
Lavender essential oil has a powerful antifungal effect against common fungal strains responsible for skin and nail infections.
For treatment, simply apply a few drops of lavender oil to the affected areas of the skin and allow to dry. Repeat 3 times a day. Better results can be achieved by combining treatment with an antifungal diet.
Numerous positive reviews about treatment with folk remedies prove the effectiveness of home recipes, but do not guarantee complete relief from fungal infections without medical intervention.
Nail fungus is caused by fairly resilient microorganisms. Even if cured, relapse may occur. Therefore, it is important to undergo comprehensive treatment for this disease and strictly follow all the instructions of the attending physician.
Nail fungus (onychomycosis), like other fungal diseases, is infectious and spreads from person to person.
The skin and toenails are most often affected by the fungus. This is due to an environment favorable for fungal growth (neutral or alkaline), which is formed during foot sweating when wearing closed shoes.
The risk of contracting a fungal infection depends on age, profession, health status, as well as the social and climatic conditions in which the person is located. The disease usually begins in the skin of the feet, most often develops between the toes, and then spreads to the nails.
The main causes of toenail fungus are the following:
The fungus is difficult to cure because it easily migrates from diseased parts of the body to healthy ones. And therefore, when treating this disease, it is important to take special care when caring for the affected areas of the nails and skin, using individual tools and care items to treat them or disinfect them after use.
The external manifestation of onychomycosis and how to treat toenail fungus most effectively depends on the type of causative agent of the disease, as well as on the depth and extent of its spread.
The following types of onychomycosis are distinguished:
At the slightest suspicion of nail fungus, you should contact a specialist for a medical examination and undergo the necessary tests to identify the type of pathogen. Next, the attending physician draws up a therapeutic program for treating the fungus and makes recommendations.
Treatment of onychomycosis is complex. Medicines are used for local action on the fungus (creams, ointments, varnishes), and systemic drugs are also taken. It is possible to cure onychomycosis with topical agents without internal medication at the initial stage of the disease, in which no more than 2/3 of the nail is affected. The duration of treatment ranges from 3 months to 1 year.
How to treat toenail fungus and between the toes using topical medications:
Treatment of fingernail fungus occurs in a similar way. Many women are upset by the unaesthetic appearance of their nails due to onychomycosis, especially when it comes to their hands.
Some antifungal varnishes allow a decorative coating to be applied over the drug. Only a doctor can say about the advisability of using just such drugs in each specific case, depending on the form and stage of the disease.
Nail fungus is not easy to cure. In advanced cases, it may even be necessary to remove the nail plate. Therefore, the effectiveness of treatment directly depends on the stage of development of the disease.
The earlier treatment begins, the shorter its duration and the better the result.
There are many remedies for the treatment of onychomycosis, both medicinal and folk.
To select an effective remedy for nail fungus, you need to know the type of causative agent of the disease, as well as how deeply it has penetrated into the layers of the nail and the nail bed.
Therefore, when self-medicating, people are sometimes surprised that the same drug heals one person, but is useless for another.
In order to quickly and efficiently cure the fungus, it is necessary to take systemic medications. Modern general antimycotic drugs can cope with any fungal pathogen and provide complete recovery in approximately 90% of cases.
However, taking such drugs can negatively affect the functioning of some internal organs, so their use has contraindications.
In cases where oral administration of medications is not possible, topical medications are prescribed. Such treatment turns out to be longer and more expensive, but in many cases, the correctly selected remedy leads to complete recovery.
Modern and effective means for local treatment of onychomycosis without taking oral medications - varnishes against nail fungus.
Antifungal varnishes are prescribed if:
Antifungal varnishes are oil or alcohol based. For successful treatment of onychomycosis, it is important to choose the right varnish, according to its active component and its concentration. Varnishes easily penetrate the layers of the nail and block the development of infection, having a detrimental effect on the pathogen and preventing it from multiplying.
The most popular varnishes are:
Batrafen . The concentration of the active substance ciclopirox is quite high: 80 mg. per 1 g, which is an indicator of the effectiveness of the varnish in the fight against fungus. Treatment should be carried out for no more than 6 months, starting with varnishing the affected nails twice a day and gradually reducing the frequency of nail treatment to once a week.
Loceril . Destroys various types of mushrooms. The active substance is amorolfine. Apply varnish once or twice a week. Full recovery may take 9 to 12 months.
Mikozan . It has a detrimental effect on fungi, increases the density of nails, reducing their porosity. Can be used for 6 months.
Dimecten . It has no contraindications and can be used at any age, including during pregnancy. The varnish fights fungus, relieves irritation, and creates a protective film. Suitable for the prevention of fungal infections.
If varnishes are not enough to treat the fungus and there are no contraindications to taking systemic drugs, oral tablets are prescribed for quick and effective treatment of onychomycosis. Such drugs are selected individually by the attending physician.
Systemic drugs in the form of tablets are produced based on the following active ingredients:
If the nail plate is completely damaged, deformed or split, the nail must be removed. For this purpose, special medications are used:
Despite the variety and high effectiveness of medications for nail fungus, folk remedies are no less popular.
Each of them will help get rid of the disease if it is chosen correctly and used at an early stage of the disease.
The advantages of such treatment, in contrast to antifungal therapy, are a small number of side effects or even their absence when the drug is used correctly.
The disadvantage of treating onychomycosis with folk remedies is the lack of a positive effect and the worsening of the situation due to wasted time. During this time, the fungal infection can spread, making the nails more difficult to cure. Therefore, you should not self-medicate. Before using your chosen folk remedies for nail fungus, you should definitely consult a specialist.
What traditional medicine offers for the treatment of onychomycosis:
Onychomycosis is often accompanied by fungal infections of the skin on the toes.
In this case, it is advisable to use ointment or cream against nail fungus for local treatment.
This is not only a universal remedy, but also less expensive than antifungal varnishes.
Another advantage of this local remedy for the disease is that the ointment for nail fungus is easy to apply.
The following drugs are considered popular ointments and creams for the treatment of nail fungus:
Other creams and ointments are no less effective in treating onychomycosis:
Salicylic, sulfur, and zinc ointments are also successfully used against fungal infections on the nails.
Any ointment or cream for nail fungus is applied not only to the affected surfaces of the nails and skin, but also to the healthy tissue adjacent to them. This prevents the spread of infection.
If the fungus is not treated, the entire surface of the nail plate becomes infected, leading to deformation of the nail and detachment from the nail bed.
It is very difficult to cure a fungus in its advanced form. Local therapy alone is not enough and systemic medications are mandatory.
In some cases, treatment is useless and the nail plate is removed using the following means:
Removing the nail plate can lead to various complications, for example, disruption of the correct growth of the nail (curvature or ingrown nail plate). In order not to expose yourself to such trouble, the fungus must be treated in a timely manner, and even better, its occurrence must be prevented.
Prevention of fungal diseases of toenails:
According to statistics, every fifth person suffers from fungal diseases. Medicine knows many ways to cure nail fungus. Now you will learn about the most effective folk and pharmaceutical remedies.
Go straight to “Treatment” if you do not need a diagnosis. Timely diagnosis of the fungus will allow you to recover as quickly as possible. At first, only a very attentive person can notice the disease. Conventionally, the process of disease development can be divided into three parts.
At the first stage, barely visible stripes appear on the nail, often spots that differ slightly in color from the nail plate. Otherwise she looks fine.
At the second stage of the disease, the spot gradually increases in size, the process proceeds almost imperceptibly. The color changes from natural to grayish-white, yellow. Along with the change in color, you can notice a thickening of the nail plate and looseness of its lower part.
At the third stage, the fungus affects the entire area of the nail, it becomes yellow, gray, brown, black (the color depends on the pathogen and the nature of the disease) and is completely loose and crumbles. This condition indicates that the fungus has spread to the entire nail bed and plate. This condition is dangerous not only because it is difficult to treat, but also threatens to spread the disease to the fingers and toes.
Timely diagnosis will allow you to cure the disease as quickly as possible.
There is a good diagnostic method. For this you will need manganese and water. Take a little potassium permanganate, dissolve it in water and soak your feet in this solution for several minutes. If the nail turns completely brown, it means there is no fungus. If some parts of the nail are not colored, it means they are affected by nail fungus.
Drugs against this disease, both for external use and for oral administration, are not uncommon today. There are even more recipes against nail fungus in the arsenal of traditional medicine. But let's go in order.
Let's assume you discover a fungus at the first stage of its development. In this case, you are incredibly lucky. Curing it at the first stage is as easy as shelling pears.
To do this, we go to the pharmacy and buy the drug Exoderil. I emphasize, not an ointment (it is good against foot fungus), but a solution in a glass bottle with a dispenser spout (this is a time-tested remedy against fungus), and then we use it according to the instructions: drop it onto the affected nail, after washing and drying the feet, two once a day, morning and evening.
This medicine costs about 500 rubles, and one bottle will last for two months. During this time, nail fungus, noticed at the initial stage of its existence, will be completely cured . You may not even have to wait for a new nail to grow. But this is only if by the time treatment begins, the nail at the site where the fungus spot appears is not affected to its full thickness.
I remember on the website of some medical clinic, the doctor recommended Exoderil, since it has the most adequate price-quality ratio. Actually, that’s why I decided to try this anti-fungal drug at one time.
A huge plus of Exoderil is that it is quickly absorbed into the nail and does not cause inconvenience when treating nail fungus, unlike many folk recipes. We'll talk about them at the end of the article.
By the way, I noticed that on the Internet lately they have been offering to cure nail fungus with the help of the drug Mikozan. What kind of remedy this is and how well it treats fungus, I cannot say. However, in my opinion, there are too many rave reviews about it everywhere. There are no such reviews about Exoderil, although this is a remedy that has been tested by time and experience. This Mikozan costs about the same as Exoderil. Choose for yourself.
I found a video about this very Mikozan, take a look for those who are curious:
At this stage, treatment of nail fungus can still be done independently and without taking pills, but it is already more difficult.
I’m telling you again from my own experience. We take Exoderil, and as I described above, apply it twice a day to cleanly washed and dried nails. At this stage of the disease, loose parts of the nail affected by fungus can be cleaned from under the nail, or from its surface.
I did this: I cleaned out the entire loose part from under the nail with nail scissors (the nail becomes very thin) and dripped Exoderil into the cavity that appeared. Be careful with the sharp ends of the scissors. If you prick yourself under your nails or cut yourself with them, you can make the disease worse.
At the time of treatment for toenail fungus, about half of the nail was affected, from the tip to the base. The hardest thing in this matter is to wait. It took me about a year to do everything, but I was pleased with the result.
It is better to talk to specialists about how to cure toenail fungus at the third stage, when the fungus affects not only the visible part of the nail, but also its root . You can make a lot of mistakes here on your own. The mycologist will take part of your nail for analysis, and based on the results of the laboratory analysis, he will prescribe treatment, both with medications for external use and for oral administration.
Drug treatment in an advanced stage should be carried out only under the supervision of a doctor.
Here's what experts say about nail fungus:
Now let's talk about how to treat toenail fungus, if you do not use expensive drugs and doctors. Traditional medicine has even more methods for treating nail fungus than official medicine. The choice makes my eyes widen. I will give here only the most popular and simplest, to my taste, methods.
Treating fungus with garlic. In principle, garlic will definitely help, but there is one “BUT” associated with it.
Recipe: Chop a clove of garlic as finely as possible. Ideally, you should get something like garlic porridge. We apply it to the nail affected by the fungus, put a bandage on the finger and tie it on top with a plastic bag or fingertip. Leave it overnight. This procedure is done at least three times a week until the nail is completely healed.
So, the “BUT” is that every morning you need to thoroughly wash your finger of garlic, but still, the subtle smell of garlic remains. And after some time (after all, the fungus can take up to a year to cure), you run the risk of becoming saturated with the smell of garlic and this can scare people away from you. ?? A joke of course, but there is some truth in it.
In general, if I had been sitting on the stove at home the entire time of treatment, I would have given garlic a solid A. And so this method of treating fungus seemed impractical to me and I switched to iodine.
With the help of iodine this is absolutely elementary. Apply a 5% iodine solution to a clean and dry nail in the morning and evening using a cotton swab. For prevention, treat the nails of adjacent fingers with iodine every two to three days.
During treatment, mild pain may be felt from about the second week. It will not cause you any inconvenience, so you will know that your nail is on the mend.
Since the beginning of treatment with iodine, I noticed how the spread of the “fungal spot” stopped and gradually, as the nail grew, I began to cut off the part affected by the fungus.
How good is this method against nail fungus? No worse than Exoderil, however, you will have to walk around with nails yellow from iodine for 2-12 months. Actually, that’s why after a month of treatment I switched to the invisible Exoderil.
And another sure remedy that helps cure nail fungus is celandine. This poisonous plant can be found in many parts of Russia from the central zone and the Urals to the southern borders.
Its juice, white or yellowish in color, (depending on the region) has excellent medicinal properties. When you apply it to your skin, you will feel a slight burning sensation. I can say offhand that it treats not only nail and skin fungus, but also warts, for example.
In June or July, depending on the climate of your area, we go to the garden or to the nearest forest plantation, ravine or river, and look for plants of this type:
We need leaves and stems from it. If you break the stem, you will see the juice that I mentioned above begin to come out of it. We apply this juice to the nail affected by the fungus twice a day; there is no need to wash it off afterwards.
The procedure is repeated until the diseased nail is replaced by a completely healthy one.
The disadvantage of this method is that freshly squeezed celandine juice can be used for free for only a couple of months. Then you will have to buy celandine oil at the pharmacy, which is also considered a good remedy against fungus .
How does this nail fungus treatment work? To be honest, I haven’t tried it myself, but this method was known to our grandmothers and great-grandmothers and was widely known.
But it is better, of course, not to let the disease progress, and at the first suspicion of a fungus, carry out preventive procedures.
Prevention is always better than cure. The last decade has seen an increase in the incidence of nail and foot fungus. The reasons for this can be both a heavy workload and activities that distract attention from one’s own health, or simple neglect of the rules of foot hygiene. And these rules are very simple:
By following simple hygiene rules you can avoid fungal infections. It must be remembered that prevention always takes less time and money than treatment of the disease, which can drag on for many months. Be healthy!
Hello, my name is Alexander. Three years ago I became a VICTIM of such a seemingly harmless disease as nail fungus! It is not customary for us to talk about such unpleasant things openly, but I want as many people as possible to know about my terrible story and avoid such a bitter experience.
I want to start this serious conversation with some statistics:
Moreover, they have no idea about the consequences they may face. And they, believe my experience, are SCARY.
My leg after “treatment” with pharmaceutical ointments
In general, any fungal infection can manifest itself at any time . Is it stress, your feet are wet, your immunity has dropped. In my case, this was the case: I had ARVI, and a week later I began to notice unpleasant symptoms:
My wife did not sound the alarm and simply lubricated my feet with salicylic ointment at night.
“Our grandmothers were treated like this, maybe it will work out for you too!”
This same “maybe” didn’t work out for me, and after some time I was forced to run to the doctor, where they cut out my nail at the root.
A year later, when the nail had almost grown back, the FUNGUS STARTED WITH EVEN GREATER FORCE!
My nails were turned into a disgusting mess, the sight of which made me feel sick, let alone my loved ones. There was a disgusting stench from my feet, my nails were crumbling. THE DOCTORS DID NOT HELP WITH ANYTHING - they only suggested once again tearing everything out by the roots.
What's the point if the fungus comes back again?
They only hide the symptoms or make it “dormant” for a while, but after some time the infection continues to progress again. I’ll tell you the truth about all the remedies that doctors prescribed for me, on which I spent a ton of money, but ALL OF THIS DIDN’T BRING RESULTS.
Option 1 - Systemic drugs
They “kill” the fungus, but no one will tell you how in one or two seconds they KILL YOUR LIVER!
This is generally comparable to RAT POISON, which you poison your body with, only a smaller dose.
I believed that this was the only way out for me if I had not developed a HORRIBLE ALLERGY. It turns out that this is a common occurrence, because... Toxicological poisoning of the body begins immediately after applying an antifungal agent to an area of skin. Some people are just more sensitive, some are not.
They say that most people have the same reaction as me, BUT THESE DRUGS STILL CONTINUE TO BE SELLED.
While I was using these remedies, I took antihistamines at the doctor’s insistence, and in the end I was taken to the hospital with severe intoxication) Thank God, they pumped me out on time, but they didn’t help with the fungus, they suggested trying folk remedies again...
I couldn't stand the pain anymore and simply tore off my nail plate myself for the second time.
Do you think my story is an EXCEPTION TO THE RULE? In hospitals I saw crowds of people with arms and legs eaten away by fungus. Regardless of gender and age.
I repeat - it is not customary to talk about this problem, and few people ADMIT TO THEMSELVES that they have a fungus!!
In the meantime, even the slightest itching on the legs is already an ALARM SIGNAL! Your shoes, your slippers - all this is an INCUBATOR for the spread of infection!
I repeat - the fungus is only acquired in some cases. IT IS ALREADY PRESENT IN EACH OF US, we just have to wait for the moment when it manifests itself IN ALL its BEAUTY, as it happened to me! And I am 100% sure that you will not be ready for this!
Ask me how I am so smart and know all this?
This is nail fungus in a 2 month old baby . Where did he come from? Of course, not due to lack of hygiene!! How will you treat your child - diluting antifungals in breast milk? That's it!
I realized that NOBODY WILL HELP ME with this problem except me. Therefore, I went online and began to study how fungus is treated in the CIVILIZED WORLD.
It turns out that in the West they have long been using the ONLY SAFE remedy against fungus “Tinedol”, in Russian - TINEDOL. It is considered the most effective of all existing ones. It is practically not imported into Russia (after all, the Russian pharmacy mafia has filled everything with its senseless and harmful drugs).
Having studied reviews, studies and expert opinions in detail, I concluded that this is a multilateral tool:
I was very impressed with the composition of Tinedol anti-fungal cream.
None of its components cause side effects!! Therefore, it can be used by people at any age and at any stage of infection.
Nail fungus is a special case of using Tinedol. In addition, the drug is suitable for getting rid of most known fungal infections , such as lichen.
I hastened to order this drug for myself. I found, thank God, its official supplier in Russia and two days later the parcel was in my hands.
Active treatment of my advanced fungal infection with Tinedol began - my REAL SALVATION!! I don’t know how much more I would have had to suffer if I hadn’t found this drug in time. I felt relief within a couple of days, and after a month my advanced fungal infection completely stopped bothering me AT ALL. For the first time in 2.5 years!
For the first time in a long time, I noticed that my nails began to grow smooth, clean, healthy!
Therefore, I recommend to EVERYONE WHO HAS FACED A SIMILAR HORROR:
DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME ON USELESS TREATMENT! And don’t wait until the infection reaches an advanced stage and the only solution is complete removal of the nail.
FOR TREATMENT, or prevention of fungus (and, believe me, it is better to prevent it), I leave the coordinates of the supplier from whom I directly ordered Tinedol:
All certificates are available, I checked. And what can we say about them if the drug is 100% effective and safe and its action speaks for itself!
I have a small salary. Traditional recipes using acetic acid to treat nail fungus.

The consequences of long-term use manifest themselves in the form of allergic reactions: skin irritation in the application area, rash, hives, redness and itching. If you anoint your neck several times, a sore throat goes away. My onychomycosis was already in a very advanced form, my nails had turned yellow, and on some of them the process of delamination of the plates had even begun. Very often (especially after taking a bath) I was bothered by itching and burning. For example, in folk medicine, ordinary vinegar has proven itself well in the fight against fungus on the nails. It is used both in its pure form and by adding other components. Curing a fungus, and not only a fungus, becomes self-evident if the body itself returns to its original state, cell by cell.

And tea tree oil is a natural herbal antibiotic.

A healthy nail is distinguished by its color and structure. A problem such as a fungus can deprive it of these features. If you do not approach this issue seriously in time, the disease will develop complications and progress to a more complex stage. Treatment of advanced nail fungus should be comprehensive.
Many types of fungus do not appear immediately, but make themselves felt already in advanced form. If at the first stage of the disease it is possible to cope with it with the help of folk remedies and local drugs, then advanced onychomycosis requires more patience from the patient.
At the beginning of the development of the disease, many do not pay attention to nail fungus and take it lightly. Some people expect it to go away on its own. Meanwhile, mycosis “spreads” over healthy areas of the skin and develops into a complicated form. Fungus may even occur between the fingers, on the fingernails and on the scalp.
What happens to the nail when the form is neglected? The main symptoms are redness, itching, peeling, pain between the fingers and in the skin fold. With this form, more than one nail is affected, which turns blue and yellow. The nail plate thickens, becomes uneven, changes shape, and in some cases is completely destroyed.
Important! The fungus can penetrate the skin, blood and internal organs, which will lead to serious illnesses.
For the existence of a fungus, the habitat is important; conditions must be created.
There are 5 factors that influenced its appearance.
Moreover, the reasons for the advanced form include deviation from the treatment regimen. Thus, you can only harm yourself.
Important! If treatment is not started in a timely manner, chronic diseases may worsen due to decreased immunity.
General therapy is based on daily hygiene procedures, the use of local antifungal agents, oral administration of tablets that help destroy the source of infection, the use of vitamins, restoratives, and the exclusion of sugar from the diet.

When you contact a specialist with an advanced form of nail fungus, you will be prescribed treatment. But first you will have to undergo a series of tests. Unfortunately, not everyone has that amount of time and money. For such cases, there are remedies that can be used to treat fungus at home on your own.
Surely many representatives of the older generation know many recipes for folk remedies to combat nail fungus. Traditional medicine also does not neglect them.
Mix apple cider vinegar and warm water in equal proportions in a small container:
After this, the affected areas must be thoroughly cleaned with a nail file and an antifungal agent applied. Carry out the procedure daily before going to bed.
Peroxide can get rid of the fungus only at its inception and the initial stage of reproduction. When the form is neglected, it will bring effect if used in combination. Treatment with peroxide is a rather labor-intensive process.
To prevent the peroxide from spreading, secure the compress with cling film and put on a fingertip. It is recommended to perform the procedure 2-3 times a day.
If it is not possible to make compresses, you can stop at baths. To prepare it you need 2 tbsp. l. Dilute 3% hydrogen peroxide in 1 liter of warm water. Keep sick nails in it for 15 minutes 2 times a day.
Iodine has most of the properties that can defeat the fungus. It has an antiseptic, cauterizing, tanning and fungicidal effect. Many recipes have been developed based on it.
Important! Iodine must be used daily; it leaves behind a yellow tint and can cause a burn if it comes into contact with delicate skin.
Apply a 5% alcohol solution (one drop is needed) to the affected nail using a cotton swab. Perform the procedure 2 times a day.
Then you need to apply antibacterial ointment to the treated surface and secure with a bandage. The procedure is performed 3 times a day.
To treat mycosis, traditional medicine often uses 20% propolis tincture. It can be prepared at home (20 g of propolis poured into 80 g of alcohol) or purchased at a pharmacy.
Pharmacology offers a lot of remedies for nail fungus, including in advanced forms. Only a qualified specialist can determine which drug should be used to treat fungus. Most of these drugs can cause side effects.
Pharmacy shelves are overflowing with effective remedies for fungus. Among the wide range you can find the most popular of them.
Tablets have less effect against nail fungus than topical medications. If they are prescribed, it is necessary for complex treatment. The only advantage of the tablets is that they affect all organs. They are often prescribed to patients with diabetes and a weakened immune system.
The most popular and effective tablets are Lamisil (minimum period of use 2 months), Fluconazole (course of treatment 6–12 months), Ketoconazole (use for at least 3 months), as well as Griseofulvin, Itraconazole, Terbinafine.

Only a specialist can choose the correct treatment based on the symptoms of the disease.
Important! Treatment should be strictly individual, and the choice of medications should be left to the attending physician.
Exoderil is available in several forms. To treat onychomycosis, it is recommended to use a solution, but since the disease often “spreads” onto the skin along with the nail plate, it is recommended to use a cream of the same brand.
The medicine is applied after thorough treatment (steaming, cleaning and drying) of the diseased area. Avoid getting the drug into wounds and eyes.
Iodinol is a budget option, famous for its effectiveness. Most often, this product is used in the form of lotions. A cotton pad should be soaked generously in Iodinol and applied to the sore nail. Then wrap your finger in polyethylene and secure it with a bandage. Change the bandage 2 times a day. After five days of treatment, a three-day interval must be taken. During this period, treat the nail plate with vegetable oil. If the form is advanced, it is advisable to repeat 3-5 courses.
Creolin contains coal oil, ichthyol, rosin, soap and caustic alkali. Due to the presence of the latter component, it is necessary to avoid contact of the antifungal agent with the skin. To do this, the skin around the nail is sealed with adhesive tape. Creolin is applied with a cotton swab 2-3 times a day. Course of treatment: until healthy nail plates grow back.
Mycosan is a safe antifungal drug. It is contraindicated for use in children under four years of age. The drug is allowed to be used even by expectant mothers.
The procedure must be completed for at least 4 weeks.
The desired effect can be achieved through thermal exposure and infrared radiation. The specialist determines the required number of procedures. Usually this is no more than 10 sessions even if the form is running. At the same time, according to the recommendations of doctors, even with one diseased nail, you need to get laser therapy for everyone.
Laser therapy is contraindicated for patients with cardiovascular and psychosomatic diseases, diabetes, oncology, collagenosis, lactation, and pregnancy. You should also not use a laser if you have recently (2 weeks ago) received chemical procedures or ultraviolet or sun rays.
To protect yourself from contracting onychomycosis, do not walk barefoot in public places, do not wear someone else’s shoes, use only your own tools for pedicure, and use your own towel.
Healthy skin serves as a barrier to parasites!
