What is the danger of onychomycosis
Fungal lesions (mycoses) are the most common among numerous dermatological deviations.
Ignoring the treatment of a neglected nail fungus can turn into:
- The spread of infection to the adjacent skin, neighboring nails, as well as other organs;
- Complete loss of destroyed nail;
- General weakening of the protective system, since toxic substances produced by pathogenic microorganisms accumulate in the body;
- The transition of an infectious infection into a chronic form, which makes it even more difficult to get rid of it.
What to do for recovery
Please note that if the nail fungus is launched, then to eliminate the disease, you should adhere to the following rules:
- Try to find out and eliminate the cause of infectious lesion.For example, during the treatment procedures, exclude a visit to the Finnish sauna, swimming pool and other places with increased humidity.
- Disinfeed shoes (do not forget about slippers!) Or change it.Antifungal sprays for handling shoes are available in free trade in pharmacies.
- Stand up in 3-4 pairs of new socks.This is important, since the victim will have to change them 2-3 times/day.Get rid of old products - even after washing, they are able to infect the outer shells.
- To coordinate with the doctor the use of pharmaceuticals.Their selection, purpose, dosage depend on the severity of the disease, the age of the patient, the general condition of the body.
- Adhere to dietary restrictions.From the diet, it is necessary to exclude products that have a beneficial effect on the life of fungi, including yeast pastries, sweets, cakes and cakes, dairy and dairy products.
When selecting folk methods of treatment, eliminating the nail fungus in an advanced stage, take into account the individual intolerance of some components, including plant raw materials, bee products.
Hydrogen peroxide
The hydrogen peroxide perfectly removes the nail fungus on the legs in a neglected (chronic) form, but the treatment will be quite long.Dermatologists recommend lubricating the perhydrot daily (once every 2 days) and healthy nails in the process of getting rid of pathology to prevent their infection.
So, how to cure a neglected fungus of nails on the legs using hydrogen peroxide?
Method 1. In a basin (bucket), steam the legs and try to remove (cut, scrape) from the nail plates the affected crust.Dip the gauze swab in the perhydrola and attach to the treated nail.Wrap with a film on top.Repeat the procedure twice a day before the growing of a healthy nail plate.
Method 2. Combine the perhydrol to apple vinegar in equal amounts.To impregnate the gauze napkin with the resulting composition and attach it to the corrosive ailment to the nail.Wait for the end of the spike effect.Rinse your legs with running water, dry thoroughly.Next, apply a pharmaceutical drug prescribed by doctors.
Method 3. Screw the feet in hot water with the addition of liquid laundry soap or copper sulfate, dry.A cotton pad, abundantly moistened with peroxide, put on the affected nail, cover with a piece of film, fix the bandage with a strip of bandage.Hold the compress for 35-40 minutes, scrape the softened tissue, eaten by a fungus.Next, treat the surface with an antifungal drug prescribed by an infectious disease specialist.
Iodine
The effectiveness of the treatment of the nail fungus with iodine in an advanced form is confirmed by both dermatologists and mycologists.What is the secret of the effectiveness of such a popular (and cheap!) Method?Iodine is capable of curtailing proteins.Parasites that destroy horn plates have a protein structure, feed on keratin - fibrillar protein.Therefore, iodine has the ability to “crush” mycosis, directly affecting it.
The method 1. Twice a day apply one drop of solution to the nail plate (5%).Next nails also do not leave without attention - lubricate them with iodine once a day.Do not forget that the solution gives the nail plates an unaesthetic yellowish tint.
After 7-10 days, a feeling of strong burning in damaged areas will appear-a sign that the destruction of pathogenic microorganisms began.The entire course of treatment takes 20-40 days.If the sensations are unbearable, process the nails once/day.
Method 2. For half an hour, spread your legs in very hot water with the addition of soda (1 tbsp. Spoon - 1 liter of water) and salt (twice as much as possible).Bite off the tongs or cut the dead zones with scissors, rinse them with clean water, dry them.Cover each affected nail plate (using a cotton pad, cotton wool) with three layers of iodine solution (after the previous one is completely dry).The procedure is carried out before bedtime for 30 days.
Vinegar in the treatment of mycosis

A film.Leave for 3-3.5 hours.The total duration of vinegar therapy is 2.5-3 months.You can stop sessions only when a new nail plate is completely formed.Even a small amount of left infected tissue can provoke the return of the pathological process.

We take sour baths
Prepare a basin (bucket), where you can conveniently place the feet.Pour heated water and vinegar into it (in equal quantities).Fingers should be completely covered with purifying liquid.The duration of the session is 40-50 minutes.Sessions must be repeated until the injured cornea is completely replaced.In the complicated stage of onychomycosis, the bath should be carried out with the simultaneous use of pharmaceuticals that the mycologist will prescribe.
Combine vinegar with celandine
There will be a great chance to get rid of nail fungus in an advanced stage, if you carry out sessions of treatment with vinegar in tandem with celandine.To prepare a miracle span, 50 g of celandine grass (Chelidonium) should be mixed with two liters of apple cider vinegar, insist in a cool place for 30 days.No apple vinegar at hand?Use 9% of the table product, but reduce its amount by half.
Strain the resulting potion, add 5 tbsp.tablespoons of salt (preferably sea), mix until it is completely dissolved.Before going to bed, pour a little money into the basin, dip the feet into it.The time of the procedure is 5-7 minutes.Do not wipe, let your feet dry out naturally.In the morning, repeat the session.When growing a healthy cornea, morning sessions can be gradually stopped.The course of treatment lasts about six months.
