Nail fungus is often
considered a cosmetic infection. This is because people with toenail fungus
will often look at their feet and see a variety of unusual looking symptoms
without experiencing any pain, especially at first. Some of them just cover up
their feet and almost pretend like they don’t even have a nail fungus
infection. Others aren’t so lucky.
It is true that the most
common symptoms of toenail fungus are purely cosmetic. This is why insurance
companies consider nail fungus a cosmetic infection. Spots and nail
discoloration are some of the symptoms that people tend to see. Their nails can
get thick and become distorted, but even then they may not feel any pain. They
may see one of many other cosmetic symptoms as well, all of which insurance
companies use to keep their customers away.
But as many people can
attest to, toenail fungus symptoms can go beyond just the cosmetic issues. Some
people really do experience actual foot pain as result of their nail fungus.
This pain can be anywhere from mild and occasional in some people to severe and
continuous in others. In addition, some people with nail fungus will smell a
terrible odor coming from their toes. These people will not only be afraid of
other people looking at their toes, but will also want people to stay away from
their feet entirely.
