What is Onychomycosis?
Onychomycosis or toenail fungus are fungal toenail infections. Toenail fungus cause toenails to become ugly, thick, discolored, hard, brittle, yellow. They can create major discomfort and even embarrassment. They are also EXTREMELY COMMON; affecting millions of people each year.
Additionally, fungus is easily spread. Individuals with fungus may have contracted it through shared bathroom space, public locker rooms, showers, and pools, shared clothing or shoes, even carpeting.
For some, hard, brittle, fungus toenails are simply genetic. When this is the case, treatment can become even more difficult given the likelihood of re-occurrence.
