Dr. Donna M. Hartmann discusses treatment of Fungal Toenails with Laser Therapy. Many topical and oral treatments exist but the treatment that produces the best results with the least side-effects is the PinPointe Laser treatment. This laser treatment for toenail fungus is completed in a single session. The PinPointe FootLaser safely and painlessly penetrates the surface of the toenail fungus to eradicate the underlying infection. The procedure begins working instantly, with positive results appearing quickly (finished product in about 3 months). The complete effective elimination of the toenail fungal infection, coupled with simple, sensible preventative measures, can help sufferers of even the toughest toenail fungus find relief. There is no recovery period—immediately after the laser procedure, patients can put on socks and shoes, walk right out and return to their daily activity. Laser toenail fungus treatment has been used to help people with recurring toenail fungal infections. Once the problem is gone, you don't have to worry about it coming back. In a recent clinical study, people who had a single session of laser treatment for their toenail fungus reported having significantly improved toenails for a full year after the treatment!

If you want to eliminate the ugly, embarrassing, painful experience of toenail fungus from your life, you should know the PinPointe Laser is the best toenail treatment. No other treatment is faster, safer, and more effective!

• Laser nail fungus treatment is safe. There are no side effects associated with the PinPointe laser – something that can't be said by prescription or topical medications. Treat your toenail fungus without endangering your health.

• The PinPointe laser provides effective toenail fungus removal. The spores that cause toenail fungus are eliminated at the source. Your new toenails will grow in pink and healthy. You will have the freedom to wear any type of shoes you like without the fear of embarrassment.

• PinPointe laser treatment for toenail fungus makes getting rid of toenail fungus easy! You don't have to take any pills or remember to smear messy cream on your toenails every morning, noon, and night. All you have to do is go to Adler Footcare, sit in the chair, and let the PinPointe laser eliminate your toenail fungus.

• PinPointe laser nail fungus treatment is fast. Proper testing to determine if nail fungus is present, is necessary. You need only one visit to Adler Footcare for treatment. A session takes approximately an hour and you need no recovery time. Compare this to topical medications, which often require several applications – for a week or more! Who has time for that?

• PinPointe laser nail fungus treatment provides a foot fungus cure that lasts. A clinical study has shown that over 80% of people who had a single session of laser treatment for toenail fungus had healthier, fungus free toenails – a full year later!

Dr. Jeff Adler discusses the symptoms, causes and treatments for Fungal Toenails.

http://www.adlerfootcare.com

Fungal nails refers to any number of fungal nail infections that can occur on the foot. Since fungal nails are usually more resistant and more difficult to treat than Athlete's Foot, topical or oral antifungal medications may be prescribed. Note: Please consult a physician before taking any medications. Permanent nail removal is another possible form of treatment for tenacious fungal nails. Laser treatments are now also available.

Preventing Fungal Nail Infections

After a fungal nail infection has cleared up, take steps to prevent the infection from recurring. Keeping fungi at bay will help prevent a fungal infection of the skin from reinfecting the nail. Before bed, thoroughly wash and dry your feet, and apply a nonprescription antifungalantifungal cream to the entire foot from the ankle down. Use the cream every night, then gradually apply it less often. Keep your feet dry. Dry feet are less likely to become infected. Apply powder to your dry feet after you take a shower or bath.

Other suggestions for preventing fungal nails include:

• Don't share nail clippers or nail files with others.
• Don't share shoes or socks with others.
• Try not to injure your nail, such as by cutting it too short (trauma to the nail may lead to infections).
• Wear dry cotton socks and change them two or three times a day if necessary.
• Wear dry shoes that allow air to circulate around your feet (tight, enclosed, moist shoes contribute to fungal toenail infections).
• Wear shower sandals or shower shoes when you are at a public pool or shower.

Prevention

Follow basic foot care guidelines and, more than likely, you can head off most common foot fungus problems.

Dr. Hal Ornstein discusses the causes, symptoms and treatments for fungal toenails.

http://www.footdoctorsnj.com

Various types of fungi are present everywhere in the environment. The dark, moist surroundings created by shoes and stockings make the feet especially susceptible to fungal infection.

Most fungi are harmless until they penetrate the skin. A fungus can invade through minor cuts, or after injury or repeated irritation to the toes have caused the nail to separate from the bed. Fungal infections of the nail plate and nail matrix are quite common.

Symptoms

•Fungus may cause the nail to thicken and become yellow or brownish.

•As the fungus grows, foul-smelling, moist debris can be seen.

•Pressure from a thickened nail or the build-up of debris may make the toe painful.

Treatments

Treatment is best begun at the early stages of infection. The accumulation of debris under the nail plate can lead to an ingrown nail, or to a more serious bacterial infection that can spread beyond the foot.

To reduce pain associated with a thickened, infected nail, your doctor may reduce its thickness by filing the nail plate down with a burr. Filing will not, however, prevent the infection from spreading.

Oral and/or topical medications may be prescribed when:

•Only a small portion of one nail is infected

•Several nails are affected

•Keeping the nail is desired

Medication may or may not completely eliminate the fungus. Often, after medication is discontinued, the fungus recurs. Your podiatric surgeon will monitor the results of oral prescriptions carefully, and will explain any possible side effects.

While topical medications usually do not eliminate the fungus, they may be effective when used directly on the nail bed, after the nail plate has been removed.

Fungal infection of the nail, or onychomycosis, is often ignored because the infection can be present for years without causing any pain. The disease is characterized by a progressive change in a toenail's quality and color, which is often ugly and embarrassing.

In reality, the condition is an infection underneath the surface of the nail caused by fungi. When the tiny organisms take hold, the nail often becomes darker in color and foul smelling. Debris may collect beneath the nail plate, white marks frequently appear on the nail plate, and the infection is capable of spreading to other toenails, the skin, or even the fingernails. If ignored, the infection can spread and possibly impair one's ability to work or even walk. This happens because the resulting thicker nails are difficult to trim and make walking painful when wearing shoes. Onychomycosis can also be accompanied by a secondary bacterial or yeast infection in or about the nail plate.

Because it is difficult to avoid contact with microscopic organisms like fungi, the toenails are especially vulnerable around damp areas where people are likely to be walking barefoot, such as swimming pools, locker rooms, and showers, for example. Injury to the nail bed may make it more susceptible to all types of infection, including fungal infection. Those who suffer from chronic diseases, such as diabetes, circulatory problems, or immune-deficiency conditions, are especially prone to fungal nails. Other contributing factors may be a history of athlete's foot and excessive perspiration.
