What is toenail fungus you might ask yourself?

What is toenail fungus you might ask yourself? 

What exactly is causing your toenails to harden and flake off? 

What’s turning your once healthy and luscious nails black and yellow?

 I’d love to tell you! 

Toenail fungus is a type of infection that affects the bed and plate of of the nail. If you start noticing the growth and development of toenail fungus on your own feet or hands you should seek treatment immediately since that fungus is extremely infectious. The fungus feeds off of keratin, a type of protein our bodies produce. It is often believed that the more discolored and distorted the nail, the further and more advanced the infection has become. Do not wait till your nails are nothing but flakey stubs inducing chronic pain to get treatment! 

There are several non invasive procedures you can do at home that will prevent the fungus from spreading. It has been stated that things like tea tree oil and tineacide are proven to help prevent the fungus from decaying the nail any further and stopping the infection.


Toenail fungus can be extremely difficult to get rid of the longer you wait, especially when the fungus makes contact with the cuticle. It is advised to seek medical attention from licensed podiatrists or dermatologists in your area that can provide you with sufficient antibiotics and treatment only they can provide.
