Understanding Nail Fungus
Nail fungus, also known as onychomycosis, is a common condition that affects the nails, particularly the toenails. It can lead to thickened, discolored, and brittle nails, often causing embarrassment and discomfort.
Causes of Nail Fungus
Nail fungus can develop due to various factors, including:
- Fungal Infection: Exposure to fungal organisms like dermatophytes can lead to nail infections.
- Moisture and Warmth: Fungi thrive in warm and moist environments, making feet susceptible to infection.
- Poor Foot Hygiene: Inadequate foot hygiene, such as wearing sweaty shoes for extended periods, can increase the risk.
- Weakened Immune System: Individuals with compromised immune systems are more prone to fungal infections.
