Toenail fungal infections, or onychomycosis, can cause nail discoloration, thickening, and deformation, as well as separation from the nail bed as the infection progresses. While persistent, the condition is manageable with the right treatment approach. Valleant’s guide outlines various options, from medical treatments like prescription antifungal medications to natural remedies like tea tree oil and vinegar soaks.

“Identifying toenail fungus early can greatly improve the likelihood of effective treatment. It is characterized by a range of visual changes to the nail and, in some cases, physical symptoms that signal an infection might be present,” a Valleant spokesperson explained. “Understanding the causes and mitigating the risk factors can help prevent toenail fungus and support effective treatment when applied promptly.”

According to Cleveland Clinic, it's estimated that 10% of Americans have toenail fungus. Age is a big risk factor, and the prevalence of the condition goes up to 50% for people aged 70 and over.

The guide shares insights on common causes to help readers understand if they are at higher risk. Some of the conditions frequently associated with toenail fungus include athlete's foot, diabetes, and excessive foot sweat.

It also provides tips for at-home care, including proper foot hygiene, breathable footwear, and the use of natural antifungal agents.

Some of the prescription treatments recommended by Vallean include oral antifungals like terbinafine and topical solutions like ciclopirox. There are also advanced medical procedures like lasers for difficult cases.

Natural options like garlic, snakeroot, and eucalyptus oil are popular for those who want to try and tackle the first symptoms at home. However, Valleant underscores that there is lacking evidence of effectiveness.

Lifestyle changes like maintaining dry feet, using antifungal powders, and avoiding walking barefoot in communal areas are also essential for a successful treatment, whichever route is chosen.

The guide also addresses common questions, such as how to recognize signs of improvement and when to seek professional help.
