What is Toenail Fungus?

Have you ever suffered from thickness or discoloration of your toenail that could be sometimes painful? If the answer is yes, this could be due to the development of fungus on your toenail which can happen after a toenail injury or exposing your feet to a moist, dark and warm environment for a long time. One example is those who wear wet shoes with no aeration for long hours. Another trigger for fungus toenail could be compromised immune system.
If you experience such a condition, Dr. Arjomandi at Lagunawoods Podiatry Group can evaluate your toenail and give you different options of treatment. This can include but not limited to laser therapy, oral or medical medication depending on the case.
