The cause of the disease
Thosehomicosis causes three types of fungi (one by one or in combination).Most cases of diseases are caused by the fungi of Trichophytot Rubrum type.Much often - Trichophyton Interdigitale, epidermofiton floccosum and microsporum and aspergillus.
- Yeast mushrooms Type Candide Albicans always parasitize on the skin and nails.Taking antibiotics, contraceptives and immunity decline can develop a yeast infection.
- Fungi mold often causes diseases in countries with tropical climate.
- Fungi soils live in the ground and cause the one to inhiby only in some people.From person to person is not transmitted.

- In large numbers, fungi lives in bath rooms, shower and pools.
- The source of infection can be patient's clothing and footwear, manicure sets, carpets and floors.
Which increases the risk of illness
- Mushrooms of foot skin.
- Reducing immunity.
- Family members who suffer from a fungal defeat.

- Diabetes.
- The presence of microtrows and the bourgeon.
- Increased leg sweats.
- Unknown and bad shoes.
- The habit of walking barefoot in public places.
- Accommodation and work in wet air conditioning.
- Long-term wearing of artificial nails.
What affects the development and advancement of onyxhomyosis
- General health.
- Sensitivity to infection.
- Leveliness level and thermal background.
- The type of nail plate (nails on their fingers become slower).
Symptoms Fungi nail
At the beginning of the disease, the usual color change of nail.Becomes opaque.Gap in which only the fungus appears between him and his bed.
The nail is painted in one of the colors: whitish-gray, yellow, green and brown, to black.Yellow oblong stripes inside the nail and below it are visible.Spots of different shades.
Niko is thickened and deformed above the affected area.Horns of the masses grow gradually, preventing the penetration of medicines.
Initially, the struggle was observed, when the fungus affects the entire nail plate, it begins to break up and collapse.During processing, a large amount of "garbage" is formed consisting of destroyed fragments and epidermis.There is often skin damage around.
Forms of onicmicosis
- Distal submarine onychomycosis.
- Side-onnicmicosis.
- White surface onychomicosis.
- Proximal drawer onychomicosis.
- Total dystrophic onnikhychosis.
Distal submarine and side omicism
This form of illness is the most common.Up to 90% of cases, its cause are the mushrooms of the genus Trichophyton Rubum.Nailboard infection begins in a free edge of the affected skin of the foot.The nail bed is first touched.The type of pairy reminds of sliding or colored yellow color.With the progression of the disease, the nail is thickened and can be divided or separated from the skin.Distal submarine onnikhychhycosis is hard to treat.Wearing shoes causing discomfort.
White surface onychomicosis
Another most common form of an onyncmicosis.In 90% of cases, the disease causes the genus of Trichophyton interdigital, which affects only the top layer of nail plate, which never thickens and does not separate from the skin.Over time, his whole surface becomes loose, such as chalk powder.Cure is happening quickly.
Proximal drawer about onychomicosis
This form of onynxism is rare.The red trichop on blood and lymph trails spread all over the body.This proves the nail damage from the back (proximal) and the detection of pathogens in the lymph nodes of the inguinal region and excretion of the prostate.The disease is often recorded in HIV infected.The defeat begins with a skin in the area of felling, which thickens.Furthermore, nail plate is included in the process that acquires a white opaque color.
Total dystrophic disastrocus
This form of disease is a consequence of progressing the progression of one or set of species of the above forms of ONY micromicosis.The nail plate is partially or completely destroyed.
Diseases with similar symptoms
Of all infectious diseases, onyhykosis is located in 50% of cases.Similar symptoms are found in the following diseases:
- Eczema.
- Psoriasis.
- Reuters syndrome.
- Daria disease.
- Ravni lichen.
- Norwegian cats.
Diagnosis Fungus Nail
To get information on what caused certain changes, you must contact a dermatologist who organizes the disease diagnosis process.Scraping from the affected part will be sent to the laboratory to clarify the causes of the disease.
The microscopy will identify the presence of fungi, and the sowing on the nutrients will highlight the pure culture of pathogens and determine the sensitivity to antifungal drugs.
The type of infection should be identified before the start of treatment. Mushroom nails on their feet is easier to warn.Browse your feet and nails more often on your feet.Early start treatment will help quickly achieve improvement, reduce feelings of discomfort and eliminate cosmetic effect.
