We are the experts in treatment of nail fungus in Sydney. Brittleness, discoloration (yellow/white), crumbling, and thickening of the nail plate and/or the build-up of debris under the nail are often signs of a fungal nail infection. A scraping or clipping of the nail can be taken to confirm the diagnosis. These infections can occur any time there is damage to the nail plate and the nail comes in contact with fungal spores which are commonly found in the environment around us. Due to the slow growing nature of fungi organisms these conditions are extremely tough to treat. There are a number of treatment options available including lacquers, oral medications or surgical procedures. Due to this it is important that your podiatrist advise you of the appropriate treatment for you, otherwise the failure rate of treatments is high. The length of treatment time varies depending on the extent of infection but may take up to 12months in some cases.
