    Nail fungus is caused by fungal infections, and 80% of its causes are athlete's foot. Many people don't pay attention to beriberi, some people don't feel pain or itch and think it doesn't matter, some people have mild itching, and it is just a temporary wipe of ointment that doesn't itch, and they don't treat it positively, and officially go to ** it, and for a long time, the big fungal reservoir of beriberi will cause fungal infection. The fungus will crawl onto the nails, and over time, the color of the nails will change, the thickness will increase, and debris will appear under the nails.

    Another part of the reason is due to local trauma, some people often play football and cause nail trauma, which causes fungal colonization around the nails, which in turn causes fungal infections and nail fungus.

    First of all, the more economical method is to soak it in vinegar, about ten minutes each time, and it should have an effect if you stick to it for a month.

    The second is to surgically pull out the nails, which is more painful and not recommended, as new nails take three months to grow and require careful maintenance.

    The third drug is applied externally, such as amorolfine 5%, or Dr. Xu's gray nail antibacterial solution. It has strong permeability to the deck, and the effect of direct germ removal is not bad.

    1.Cause. 1. Peripheral nerve diseases.

    Healthy nails are less susceptible to infection, the tendency of nail infection fungi may be related to genetics, diabetes and local arteriovenous circulation and lymphatic return disorders, peripheral nerve diseases, etc., toenails that work in humid environments and are often traumatized are susceptible to fungal infection, toenail mycosis is mostly directly transmitted by tinea pedis, and nail mycosis may be transmitted from tinea manufolia or infected by frequent foot grabbing.

    2.Cause. 2. Germs.

    Onychomycophyton is often caused by Trichophyton rubrum, Trichophyton gypsumiform, Trichophyton flocculent, etc., others such as Trichophyton Xulanii, Trichophyton purpure, Trichophyton breakage, Trichophyton rosea, Trichophyton concentric can cause onychomycosis, fungal white nail is often caused by Trichophyton gypsumiformis, and occasionally can be judged by Cephalosporus, Fusarium and Aspergillus terraticus.

    3.Cause. 3. Fungi.

    Onychomycosis is mostly caused by other filamentous fungi, yeast-like fungi and yeasts, mostly seen in maltrophied nails, it has been affirmed that Candida albicans and B. brevis can cause onychomycosis, and in recent years, it has been found that Candida smootha can also cause onychomycosis. This infection is also the most important for nail types, and most patients get it through fungal infection.

    Precautions. Patients with nail fungus should pay attention to the conditioning in life while being active, especially pay attention to light diet and eat more vegetables and fruits.

    Nail fungus caused by beriberi.

    Onychomycosis, commonly known as "nail fungus", is a disease caused by dermatophytes invading the nail plate or under the nails. Onychomycosis is an infection of the nails caused by fungi such as dermatophytes, yeasts and non-dermatophytes.

    Onychofungi common type 2:

    Fungal leukonychia (superficial albichomycosis) This type of lesion is confined to a piece of the nail surface or its tip;

    Subungual mycosis is divided into distal lateral, proximal, and superficial white lesions that begin on both sides or distal to the nail and then become infected under the deck.

    Onychomycosis is one of the most stubborn and refractory types of ringworm mycosis. Oral or topical medications may be used, or surgical nail extraction.

    Fingernails and toenails grow at different rates, and it takes 100 days to completely replace a new nail, while toenails take about 300 days, so nail fungus must be patient.

    1.Surgical nail extraction.

    It is suitable for single nails, and the affected nails are removed under local anesthesia. This method has a large wound, bleeding, and is prone to infection. After surgery, it is generally more painful and prone to re-infection**, so it is rarely used in clinical practice. Patients with heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, etc., should not be surgical**.

    2.Medications taken internally.

    Suitable for multiple nails. For example, terbinafine tablets 250mg are taken orally every day for 6 to 12 weeks; Itraconazole 400mg acorn, 7 days of continuous administration and 21 days of rest for a course of treatment, lasting 3 6 courses; Take fluconazole 150 mg 1 2 times a week for more than 4 months. It can ** more than 80% of onychomycosis and onychomycosis.

    However, because this kind of drug must reach the deck where the fungus is parasitized in order to exert antibacterial effect, the dosage is large and the medication time is long, Heng Ruyan should regularly monitor adverse drug reactions.

    3.Topical**.

    Depending on the agent, the main methods are topical application and encapsulation and reduction.

    1) Use nail files (non-professionals should not use razor blades to avoid bleeding and infection of other diseases) to grind irregular bad nails, and the nail grinding cycle is better once every 2 days;

    2) 30% glacial acetic acid external coating or 10% glacial acetic acid bubble nail 1 time a day for 3 6 months or more. If the nail is thinned before application, the effect is better. Before applying nails, pay attention to protect the periungual area with mild ointment**;

    3) Use topical antifungal drugs such as terbinafine tincture, amorolfine nail liniment, ciclopirox olaminone nail coating and other topical drugs.

    In short, nail fungus should be persistent. At the same time, it is also necessary to actively improve the ringworm and chronic systemic diseases in other parts of the body, improve their own resistance, and pay equal attention to prevention and treatment, so that it is possible to completely ** nail fungus.

Fungal infection of fingernails can cause damage to the nail plate. Generally, in the early stage, the nail plate may be cloudy or dull, and then the nail may become soft and brittle, and some may have a plate hyperplasia, or there may be a powdery appearance of free margins, which is the main symptom of nail fungus formation.
