What Is a Fungal Nail Infection?
Fungal nail infection (onychomycosis) is a common condition that begins as a yellow or white spot under the tip of your toenail. As the fungal infection goes deeper, the nail may discolor, thicken, crumble at the edge, and distort in shape—often harboring bacterial infections underneath.
Common Symptoms
Thickened, brittle, or crumbling toenails · Yellow, brown, or white nail discoloration · Distortion in nail shape or lifting off the nail bed · Dark color under the nail caused by debris buildup · Foul odor originating from the infected nail bed
Our Treatment Approach
Fungal culture / microscopic diagnosis → specialized podiatric nail debridement & thinning → targeted topical antifungal treatments & oral therapy → laser or minor chemical nail procedures for resistant cases → hygiene and footwear sanitation counseling to prevent reinfection.
