Stubborn toenail infections don’t go away on their own. In fact, without proper treatment, they can worsen over time.
Early intervention not only improves the appearance of your nails but also helps prevent the infection from potentially spreading to other nails or family members.
Taking action now can save you from future discomfort and restore your confidence.
There are several proven treatments available for stubborn toenail infections:
Antifungal Nail Polish: A common first-line treatment for mild fungal nail infections, applied directly to the affected nail
Oral Medication:Â Prescription pills that work from within to eradicate the infection and prevent it from recurring. For individuals with moderate to severe fungal nail infection, seeking a faster solution than nail polish
Cold Laser Therapy: An innovative, non-invasive and painless treatment option that effectively kills the fungus without harming the surrounding tissue, and no recovery time
Each treatment method has its benefits depending on the severity of the infection and your personal preferences. A consultation with a podiatrist can help determine the best approach for you.
While over-the-counter remedies exist, they often provide limited results. Professional care from a podiatrist ensures you receive personalised treatment tailored to your specific condition.
