Toenail Fungus Symptoms

The nail plate can have a thickened, yellow, or cloudy appearance. The nails can become rough and crumbly, or can separate from the nail bed. There is usually no pain or other bodily symptoms, unless the disease is severe.
Dermatophytids are fungus-free skin lesions that sometimes form as a result of a fungus infection in another part of the body. This could take the form of a rash or itch in an area of the body that is not infected with the fungus. Dermatophytids can be thought of as an allergic reaction to the fungus. More Info

Cause of Toenail Fungus

A toenail can become infected by a number of different kinds of fungus, yeast or mold. These microorganisms are commonly found on the body, especially around the feet where the warm, moist environment provides them the perfect breeding ground. Conditions which support the growth of toenail fungus include a history of trauma or damage to the toenail, hereditary factors, and a history of poor foot hygiene. MORE

Toenail Fungus Treatments that don't Work

Vick's vapor rub - this may be effective if on infant toenails and in only the mildest of cases. I'm not impressed with it though.
Tea Tree Oil - alone it is garbage. If it is mixed with another ingredient, it will be more effective in the beginning stages.
Topical creams, oils, lotions in pharmacies and drugstores - crap. They may claim to work but they do not. Save your money. Read the fine print. Even if it is called Toenail Fungus Blaster, the back of the package will read, 'not for toenail fungus.' Go to there and read yourself - I'm serious!
Copper ionotophoresis - forget it. All you are doing is driving toxic copper into your bloodstream. Plus, it is costly.
