While you mostly need your feet for practical reasons, like getting around, it’s nice not to feel embarrassed about how your bare feet look. That’s especially true if you end up in a situation in which others can see your toes.
If your toenails are affected by a fungal infection, you might not feel comfortable with others seeing your feet, due to nail discoloration, thickening, and shape changes.
Nail fungus isn’t just a cosmetic problem and can result in lasting issues for the affected toenails without the right treatment. Can you successfully treat nail fungus at home? There are a lot of products available over the counter for fungal infections, but they might not be the best choice.
Turn to podiatrist Dr. Stephen Eichelsdorfer and our team at Town Center Foot & Ankle for advice on successfully restoring your toenails after a fungal infection. “Dr. Ike,” as he’s better known, sees patients at our Kingwood and Atascocita, Texas, locations.
Sometimes at-home treatments for toenail fungus are effective, clearing up aesthetically unpleasant symptoms and leaving your toenails unblemished and strong.
But fungal infections have a tendency to come back. It can be very difficult to fully eradicate a case of toenail fungus. You think you have things under control, and then yellow or white spots start to show up on your nails again, indicating that the problem isn’t as resolved as you had hoped.
Untreated toenail fungus can spread very easily. Your other toenails can become infected, and you can even infect other people. You don’t want to risk that happening.
Dr. Eichelsdorfer offers professional-grade treatment options for treating toenail fungus that get rid of the problem for good. That’s a better bet than messing around with at-home treatments that might not work in the long run.
