Patient discussion about Bracket fungi.

Q. How to get rid of a yellowish toenail? One of my toenails is yellowish and I remember my mother had this discoloration of her toenails. Does anyone know what this could be and what can be done about it?

A. You probably have a fungus in your toenail which is pretty common and seems to be hereditary. I had it too and the only way I know to get rid of it is a prescription drug called Lamisil, which I took for an entire year.

Q. How to treat toenail fungus? I have two badly infected toes on one foot (a problem of several years) and two more are growing in with fungus. How can I treat it without oral medicine?

A. as someone who got rid of fungal infection in his feet- the key here is using the anti-fungal cream (whether it'll be natural oil or anti fungal medicine) for a very long time- couple times a day. use powder to soak any moisture - after 6 months you are fungal free :)

Q. What is the best way to treat fungal infection so it wont come back every year at the same time?? I don't know where I got it from- maybe caught it in a public shower,some people say it develops while the foot is in the shoe for long hours- I'm not sure- but every fall, for like 5 years now, I've been having this fungal infection in a few spots in my feet. usually in the same exact spots and ewvery year another one show up. what to do to make it go away?? it's real ugly and itchy, can't stand it. any help would be appreciated...

A. i also used to have fungal infections (Athlete's foot). i just applied a topical anti fungal cream to treat it and then continued applying it for prevention and started to use sandals in public showers. and thank god, i don't have any now.
