What is Fungal Nail?

Fungal nail also known as (onychomycosis) is a common infection of the nail. It can affect both toenails and fingernails, however, it is more common in toenails. Fungal nail begins as a white or yellow spot under the tip of the nail. As the infection goes deeper, the nail may become discoloured and begins to crumble at the edge.

Common Causes of Fungal Nail.

There are many different causes of fungal nail. Paying particular attention to each cause can reduce the likelihood of developing a fungal nail infection. Some of the most common causes include:
  • Older Age-Fungal Nail infections are more common in older adults. The more a nail ages, the more likely it will become dry, brittle, and crack, often leading to a fungal infection.
  • Uncomfortable Shoes-Wearing footwear that make your feet hot and sweaty can cause fungal nail infections to occur.
  • Walking Barefoot- walking barefoot in public places such as swimming pools and changing rooms that easily spread fungal infections.
  • Having a Minor Nail Injury- An injury to the nail can lead to a fungal nail infection.
  • Diabetes-Individuals who suffer from diabetes are at increased risk of developing a fungal nail infection.
