Nail injury turns into onychomycosis

In our daily life, our nails are often damaged due to squeezing, and we will feel pain in our nails at this time. In fact, our nails have the ability to regenerate. If our nails fall off due to damage, they will grow again after a period of rest. Some people will get infected due to nail injuries and develop onychomycosis. So what should we do if our nails become onychomycosis after being injured?

Onychomycosis (onychomycosis) is a lesion caused by dermatophytes invading the nail plate. It is a fungal disease that occurs on the nails and under the nails. Fungal infection is a fungal skin disease that causes changes in nail structure and color, and is contagious. It causes nails to become deformed, thickened, easy to fall off, and separate. Often one nail can cause multiple nails to be infected. There are many types of onychomycosis, and spongiosum is the most common. This infectious disease has an 80% chance of infecting the toenails.

With proper treatment, most damaged nails will regrow into healthy nails.

Signs and symptoms: Nail disease may be accompanied by the following symptoms: Nail discoloration or spots, pain, redness, swelling, sunken nails, arches or breaks, nail damage, dark brown streaks. Causes Nail disease can be caused by infections, skin diseases, benign or malignant tumors, and certain diseases with large impact areas. They may also be caused by their own reasons. First, go to a public hospital, preferably a tertiary hospital, for fungal examination. After diagnosis, if a few nails are infected, only topical medication is needed; if most nails are infected, oral antifungal drugs can be used for treatment; antifungal drugs can effectively control nail infection; antifungal drugs have certain damage to liver and kidney function, and liver and kidney function should also be checked, so it is recommended to go to a public hospital, preferably a tertiary hospital, for examination.

Onychomycosis is mainly caused by fungal infection. There are dozens of fungi that cause this type of disease, some of which are more stubborn. It is important to determine the specific type of fungus and take targeted treatment methods. Our hospital uses the most authoritative onychomycosis treatment, which is "osmotic softening therapy". Through microwave radiation multifunctional treatment combined with drug ion introduction, it quickly penetrates into the root of the diseased nail, kills pathogenic bacteria, and promotes the maintenance of the nail bed, repairs nail regeneration, and cuts off the source of infection, achieving sterilization and maintenance in one. At present, no recurrence has been observed among clinically cured patients.
