How to treat nail fungus

The mushroom nail plate (onykhomicosis) is a fairly common dermatological disease, from which to 20% of the planet population suffers in one form or another.

On one or more nails can affect any of the varieties of dermatophytes (microorganisms that paras with the human body), both on their hands and on their feet. Pathogenic ofychomicosis is rapidly multiplied in a wet and warm environment, in shaded places. Infectious dermatophyte mushrooms can be foundable not only nails, but also skin and hair. Older people have a higher level of expanding the disease.

Consider in more detail why the fungus appears, and we will also review 5 most efficient drugs to treat fungus on your feet at home.

The source of infection can be:

1. A sick person. Some types of fungi are parasite only on a person, so you can only get infected from the patient. You can infect nail fungi on your feet and with direct contact with the patient, and when used shared items - shoes, towels, etc.
2. Animals. There are types of fungi that amaze both people and animals. People usually become infected in contact with sick pets.
3. Wednesday. The second diversity of fungi can multiply out of living organisms. You can infect yourself in contact with soil or water.

So you can get infected anywhere. But, of course, not every contact with the pathogen ends with the fact that the fungel is developing on the nails of the legs. The following provocative factors can lead to onypromicosis development:

• Age after 60 years;
• Mellitus diabetes;
• Breach of circulation in lower extremities;
• weakening immunity caused by chronic disease or other factors;
• Wearing an unpleasant shoe that does not pass the air.

How does nail fungus start? The initial phase of the fungus on the legs does not cause physical discomfort, the changes relate to the appearance of the nail plate. Mushroom nails in the initial phase manifests itself by the appearance of stains or stripes of unnatural color. If the nail fungus on the legs in the initial phase is not treated, then the disease promotion will begin.

Fungi phases

All mushrooms are prone to an aggressive colonization of their carrier. Germination germination in the fabric is similar to the growth roots of the tree in the building. Branched, the body of the fungus destroys the mobile structure of the tissue, causing destruction.

Everything is in their path to absorb food. Mycelium distinguishes enzymes that destroy dead keratinocytes, cellular cells and absorb nutrients. Unfortunately, these enzymes affect not only dead cells, but also violate the work of healthy.

Disease progression takes place in five phases:

1. Infection. Mushrooms are attached to the dead scales of the skin, gradually comes to the nail. Did not notice symptoms.
2. Normatorophically. The nail fades and turns on the edges, thickens a little on the corners. Smell and unpleasant sensation appear.
3. Hypertrophic. Yelllowness covers the entire nail, the nail plate is deformed by the appearance of the transverse coloring. In 60% of cases, he was accompanied by thickening the entire nail. The edge of the nail slab relieves, deluxes.
4. Atrophic. The pieces of nail plates disappear, exposing the nail bed, covered with loose horns. Nails are boring, yellowish gray.
5. Onycholisis. The nail plate becomes thinner and disappears. If the matrix is not injured, the nail will grow.

For us, the good news is that Micelium does not penetrate the lives of fabrics. He's dead enough cells, and if he enters the nail bed, the fungus immediately attacks immunity and dies. However, with extended infection, the damaged trophic nail leads to the weakening of the barrier function, and pieces of Micella can enter the bloodstream in search of a new fertile place. In addition, the constant fight against mushrooms tried the reserves of immunity.

Diagnostics

To confirm the diagnosis, the specialist gives the patient recommendation for tests:

1. Microscopy. Scraping removed from the nail slab processes a special substance for destruction of keratin. In this form, the material is easier to study under a microscope. The inability to determine the type of mushroom is the inability to determine the type of fungi. However, the response analysis already serves as a basis for appointing a wide range of action.
2. Cultural research. In laboratory conditions, the material is located in the nutrient media Saburo - sowing for the rapid development of the fungus. The caution agent was identified with color, growth rate and form of parasitic colonies. The technique also reveals the sensitivity of strains of medicines. But the patient receives the results of the analysis only 3-5 days after his behavior.
3. Diagnostics. DEK DNG cell detection of fungal infection occurs when a scraping of the nail that affects dermatophytes or candidate fungi. The method does not specify molds. The results of the patient analysis are given within 1 to 2 days. The lack of DNA diagnosis of the initiation of occupation is high cost due to the need to use special equipment.

External symptoms of fungi are not specific, they indicate only to nail damage on their feet. The cause of the disease becomes clear only after diagnostic studies. To prescribe the appropriate therapy, onypromikosa standing differs from the red flat deprivation, psoriasis nails, keratoderme and other diseases caused by nail nutrition.

How to treat a fungal at home

Don't hope the fungus will pass alone. The longer the person suffers from this disease, the more complicated treatment, further treatment will be.

Duration of treatment flow and drug selection depends on:

2. Fungus feet often appears due to bad immunity, you can only step on the floor with your bare foot and pick up infection, take vitamins to avoid it;
3. Frequent nail continuing can become one of the causes of onnicmicosis, limit the procedure up to 1 session in six months;
4. The most complicated is nice - this is a fungus caused by active disputes. She penetrates the indentation of the nail and fingers, can be in the sleep stage for a while, then grow sharply. They are most often infected in public use (swimming pools, showers, solarium), during the operation of other shoes, etc.

The system preparations have a large list of contraindications and should be prescribed by the present doctor. Most of them are prohibited from taking pregnancy and breastfeeding, in childhood and chronic liver and kidney diseases.

In severe cases, sub-upper fungus may require removal of nail plate. The procedure can be performed surgically and using keratolitics that contain salicylic acid and urea. Removing the affected nail with keratolytic mortar is characterized by colorless and practicality.

After a few days, the patch is removed, the shocked areas of plates were cut, one of the antifungal medications is applied. The procedure is done several times.
