Treatment of fungus (nail) nails

The fungal nail infection is ugly and embarrassing. They are common and easy to catch, but it is very difficult to remove.

Unfortunately, most people ignore fungal nails as cosmetic annoyances. Fungus may not be bothered for a while, infection worsens if left untreated: nails become thick, feeling uncomfortable wearing shoes with feet, stumble nails there is. In the long term, onychomycosis is a serious disease, and medical consultation and comprehensive treatment are necessary.

Nail fungus (onychomycosis) is the most common nail disease and more than 30 million people in the United States suffer from this condition. Approximately 50% of the population over the age of 45 is infected with nails. Several have been fighting fungi for decades. Treatment of onychomycosis is difficult because there is infection in the hard to reach areas under the nail called the nail bed.

A local anti-fungal solution can not reach it. Oral medicines can not target this specific area, it may be toxic and hard to the liver. A new laser adjuvant therapy has been developed, clinically excellent results are reported as the number of foot doctors in the US has increased. To maximize efficiency, you need to combine laser therapy with a complete and comprehensive program.

Typically, at least two laser treatments of at least two feet focused on malignant infections are required. Patients should use a care regimen for ultraviolet shoe disinfectant (yes, must treat all shoes to kill fungi or bacteria), powerful topical medicine, re-infection prevention. This comprehensive treatment course is safe, non-toxic, pain-free and highly effective.

Thanks to its ability to kill the fungus on the nail bed through the nail bed, only laser light is the only modality available today, and the practitioner can eliminate the cause of the disease. High intensity light and thermal damage delivered to the target by the laser is fatal to the fungus, but it is safe for the surrounding skin. Indeed, these same lasers are used for the growth of new collagen in anti-aging cosmetic treatments and may stimulate the growth of new, healthy, fungal-free nails that gradually replace the old ones.

Patients with fungal nails are very susceptible to reinfection. Fungi are present anywhere in the environment of people with onychomycosis. Therefore, complex decontamination and preventive care regimens are important for successful treatment. For more information on using fungal lasers, please visit www.laserfortoe.com.
