According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), toenail fungus can affect up to 14% of people. Also called onychomycosis, fungal nail infections of the toes are a common but irritating problem.
Toenail fungus is usually caused by fungi called dermatophytes. When the fungi get between your toenail and your nail bed, infection can set in. The condition becomes known as tinea unguium, and the issue is twofold: a local infection of both fungi and bacteria. You may notice discoloration and warping or twisting of the nail that indicates an infection. But its location deep within the nails can make it tricky to treat.
The PinPointe FootLaser for nail fungus is a revolutionary treatment for toenail fungal infections that is more effective and safer than traditional remedies like topical and oral antifungal medications.
