The fungal damage to the nails, or onychomicosis, differs from the lesion of the skin of the feet and interdigital spaces as the mushroom is very difficult to "obtain".In the event that it is on the skin (dermatomicosis), then Follow and special creams penetrate deeply into the epidermisand have their fungicidal effect.
The mushroom is located in the thickness of the nail plate or, in general under the nail.If it were out, then it could simply be washed, clean or shaken, and the parasite would have no possibility.But that's not the case.
Choose means of struggle
What is better from the nail fungus on the legs: ointments, creams or liquids and paints?Those who think there are the best ointments from the mushroom on the nails of the legs are wrong.Ointments, creams and gels, like the forms of soft dosage, are created specifically to apply them to the skin and almost do not penetrate the nail.
However, the ointments can and must be used in the treatment of omicomicosis, but in order to lubricate the skin around the nail plate, as well as in the interdigital spaces.
But they are not the main participants in the struggle for a healthy nail, but auxiliary.Much more important are special liquids and enamels, which must be applied according to a special scheme.Today, this is the best way to treat the nail fungus on legs and arms.
Before applying the paint, preparation is required: the nail plate must be treated with a special glass card, for a better introduction of liquids and paints in the nail.As a rule, the treatment with paint and fluid lasts more than a month.In the event that the thumb nail is significantly influenced, sometimes it is necessary for a year to cry a healthy nail plate.
On tablets
Not all onychomycosis need tablets.However, if the patient's mushroom progresses, capturing all new nails, then you cannot do without taking oral drugs.
Do not buy the old and cheap products that mycosis were treated in the last century.Despite their low cost, their effectiveness is fully consistent with their price.
It is important to remember that only a doctor should prescribe tablets for tablets.The fact is that the duration of the course of the treatment is determined by the depth and spread of the Wholenomicosis and only a dermatologist can determine it.
In addition, capsules and tablets are prescribed to those patients who have weakened immune defense.These groups of patients include immunodeficiency patients, blood diseases, diabetes mellitus, chronic alcoholism and often many colds and viral diseases, patients with autoimmune disorders, HIV infection and chronic viral hepatitis.
The tablets, creating the necessary concentration in the blood, influence the mushroom "from the inside", while paints and liquids destroy it outside.
On prevention
Now you know how better it is to take care of the nail fungus on the legs.But without the prevention of recurrence and re -infection, all treatment can be wasted.Very often, the mycelium and the spores of the mushroom are kept inside the winter shoes, which have not been treated correctly.After the course of the treatment, it is worth a bit like such shoes and a ri -infection can occur.
Therefore, together with the treatment, it is necessary to observe a complex of preventive measures: treat the shoes with a special antifungal spray, spraying it inside and shoes strictly linked in a plastic bag for several hours.The sunny and socks must be washed often and ironed with an iron with the steam function.
You can also undo the shoes and often put them in the sun or include special ultraviolet dryers inside, which are highly effective in the fight against various types of mushrooms.
The important components of prevention are also:
- the use of only their towels;
- regular processing of individual slippers;
- The cessation of visits to sports rooms, fitness clubs, bathrooms, swimming pools and other common areas, where you cannot only "collect" a new type of mushroom, but also become a source of infection of others.
Observing only all the activities described above, You can hope for a satisfactory result of the treatmentAnd then you can forget the mushrooms forever.
