How to Avoid Toenail Fungus

You may ask yourself what are the best ways to avoid toenail fungus. Toenail fungus can be very infectious, especially during the summertime. First, when going to public places, always wear shoes. It is important to always wear shoes in places like public pools, water parks, gyms, and locker rooms. If you walk barefoot in these places, you could get infected with toenail fungus.

Also, never share your nail clipper with other people. Toenail fungus can spread to your nails if it’s used by someone who is infected. Make sure to always clean and sanitize your nail clippers and any other nail maintenance tools. It is important to maintain your toenail.

Laser Treatment for a Toenail Fungus in Deerfield Beach

Toenail fungus treatments in Deerfield Beach can vary. If you have caught nail fungus, it can be easily treated using the FDA-approved PinPointe laser, which typically only takes on treatment. Other treatments like topical solutions and oral medication are not as effective. Topical solutions have a very low cure rate. This is because the solution does not penetrate all the way through the nail bed.  This is because it can lead to liver toxicity. You would need to have consistent blood tests throughout the course of taking the medication.

It has no side effects and no recovery period. As a result, you can go about your daily activities right after the treatment. Also, there’s no pain.
