Fungal Nail Infections

Get rid of your fungal nails for good.

Do you have discoloured, brittle and painful toenails?

Fungal nail infections can be very unpleasant and without the right care and attention, they are unlikely to go away and can be very stubborn. They are also contagious which can make you hesitant to walk bare foot whilst others are around.

You may have already searched online for home remedies and purchased anti-fungal cream off the shelf. You may have even contacted your GP about your toenail infection but still had no success.

You shouldn’t have to put up with this and the good news is you don’t have to. Our highly trained Podiatrists and Chiropodists can treat your fungal infection and get your feet looking and feeling great.

Fungal nail infection facts

What is a fungal nail infection?

Fungal nail infections affect 10% of the population. It’s a common foot condition where your toenail becomes infected with fungus.

What causes a fungal nail infection?

Fungal nail infection occurs when fungus gets inside your toenail, either through a crack in your nail or the skin around your nail, and starts to grow. Fungus thrives in warm and dark places, so when wearing closed-toe shoes, if your feet are getting hot and sweaty, you might be at risk of becoming infected. The same applies to walking barefoot through gym showers, swimming pools, and locker rooms, where fungus can spread easily.

What are common symptoms of fungal nail infection?

The types of symptoms that you experience will differ depending on the type of fungus that has caused the infection. However, the main symptoms are discoloured, brittle, and sometimes curled toenails. You might also find that your toenails thicken, start to smell, or even come loose from the nailbed. After a while, you might also find that the infected toes become painful, making it difficult to walk.

I had a bad verruca and it was treated with care and attention. I can now walk knowing I’m not going to be in pain.
