Fungi are eukaryotes (like humans), unlike bacteria, so it's actually harder in some ways to treat a fungal infection than a bacterial one. Be sure and tell your doctor about any other drugs you may be taking, even if they're just over the counter medications, since there's a significant possibility of drug interactions.

Currently, many therapeutic options for treating toenail fungus. However, almost all of these therapies takes a long time. Topical treatment on average takes 6 months to repel a fungal infection of the nail. Therapy with antifungal pills takes approximately 3 months. Some studies also suggest that combining topical and oral treatments. Conventional therapy with topical and oral treatment requires patience. If not completed in treating nail fungus, these infections can recur. A lot of people who want to expel toenail fungus quickly.

What the best way to get rid of thick toenails?

Well this certainly depends on what the problem is, maybe your body is not getting enough oxygen, although this usually turns your nail blue. In the case of black nails, you could have fungus. Is there any other coloring going on with your nails? I could say maybe you have hit a nail, but if you have toenails and fingernails which are black then this is highly unlikely.


How do you cure yellow toenails?

I'm pretty sure that brown toe nails means they're dead, so I would just let them fall off by themselves, or grow out (i've never had brown toe nails before, my dad did). In most cases, people get brown toe nails if they smash them in a door or something.


Why are your toenails thick?

as you are aware, under our fingernails are thin, sensitive membranes called cuticles, and nails protect these. also, back in prehistoric times, humans had to survive in the wild, and the nails protected their hands and feet as they were running through the forests. [The above answer is ridiculous. Cuticles are a portion of the structure of the nails, the "sensitive membrane" parts of toe nails are simply the vascular parts of the structures that grow and nourish the nail. To suggest that nails exist to protect the sensitive membranes gets cause and effect backward. The above answer also conflates toe nails and fingernails, as toe nails do little to protect the hands. Finally, to suggest that toe nails protect the feet as prehistoric humans were running through the forests, the answerer seems to be unaware of the simple fact that toe nails are on the top of the toes, and even prehistoric humans ran on the lower surface of the toes. You can run in forests just fine without toe nails.] We have toe nails to as our evolved version of claws, as our biological ancestors were climbing creatures.
