How Can We Treat Nail Disorders?
Onychomycosis, can be treated using topical agents such as amorolfine lacquer and systemic agents which include terbinafine, itraconazole and fluconazole (for Candida infections). Surgical removal of a nail can be considered if it becomes too thick and is unlikely to respond to treatment. However, cure rates of recovery after nail removal may not justify the discomfort caused by surgery. There are also cases involving the use of laser and photodynamic therapy. However, more proof of effectiveness is required before these treatment modalities can be safely recommended. Preventive measures after suffering from onychomycosis include topical antifungals (creams, lotions or powders), antiseptic gels, and use of your own sterilised instruments for manicures and pedicures. Additionally, you should set aside two nail clippers – one for infected nails, and a separate one for healthy nails.
You can treat ingrown nails by using conservative measures such as cutting nails straight across, using cotton wisps or plastic tubing, or taping to pull lateral nail folds away from the nail. If these measures prove ineffective, then surgery may be required.
