Common Treatments for Nail Fungus

Dealing with toenail fungus can be really frustrating. Toenail fungus can go away on its own, but you also run the risk of it spreading and continuing to infect your feet. There are easy ways to treat nail fungus and it’s important that you know what your options are. Your podiatrists at Southern Maryland Foot & Ankle in Clinton, Waldor, and California, MD, can explain what some common treatments for nail fungus may be.

Dealing with Nail Fungus

Toenail fungus can make you feel uncomfortable in public and make you feel embarrassed about others seeing your feet. Our podiatrist can figure out what form of nail fungus treatment may work best for you. Some nails are more resistant to treatment than others, so you may need to try multiple forms of treatment.

Most commonly, antifungal medications will often be used. These medications might be topical or oral. It’s important that you follow directions in order to help the medication fight off infection and clear up your nails. In severe cases, your nails might be resistant to treatment and you’ll find that no option seems to work. In cases like this, you might need to consider permanent nail removal. This makes it so that fungus can no longer grow under the nail and cause infection.

It's important that you’re not only taking steps to treat nail fungus but you’re working to prevent it in the future. Be sure to always wear clean, dry socks and shoes and practice good basic hygiene skills.
