Practically everyone is at risk of contracting a nail fungus infection either on the fingernails or toenails. You are at greater risk if you have repeated exposure to water and moist places such as locker rooms, public showers, community swimming pools, the beach, etc. Nail fungus thrives in dark, moist, and enclosed conditions such as those created by wearing socks and closed-toe shoes. The lack of circulation and entrapment of perspiration creates a typical scenario for nail fungus growth.

Keep in mind that nail fungus grows slowly and it can take up to a couple of months to notice any symptoms. Examine your feet often during the summer months when nail fungus growing conditions are heightened due to the heat and humidity of the season.

The most common symptoms are easy to identify. For instance, you may see yellow or white spots, a discoloration of the entire nail (sometimes turning black or brown), thickening of the nail, crumbling or brittleness of the nail, or an unpleasant odor. If you determine you have a nail fungus infection, it is critical that you begin treatment immediately. While you may believe that these symptoms are purely aesthetic issues that will disappear once the fungus is cured, you may be mistaken if you let the nail fungus infection reach advanced stages. In extreme circumstances, toenail fungus infections could potentially lead to the following types of complications:

• permanent toe/nail deformations
• foot ulcers
• other types of infections in the body
• pain that may affect your ability to walk or wear closed-toe shoes
• If you suffer from poor blood circulation (such as diabetes or old age) or have a weakened immune system, this could even lead to gangrene

A variety of treatments are available, ranging from the relative inexpensive and anecdotal “home” remedies, to costly and not readily available laser treatments. Often times, most people seem to agree that an effective, low-cost, topical toenail fungus treatment is the best solution. Apply treatment early and follow all proper directions to achieve the best possible results.
