• Nail infections can be painful and interfere with
  daily activities and can be bacterial or fungal.
  Bacterial Infection is called paronychia and
  onychomycosis is fungal infection of the nail.
  They may also spread around the nail to
  neighbouring areas, or to other nails. Nail
  infections, should not be ignored and handled
  carefully because they can lead to complications.
  It is therefore necessary to diagnose and treat
  them in time.A fungal nail infection occurs
  from the overgrowth of fungi in and under the
  nail and generally affect toenails more than
  fingernails as the toes are usually confined to a
  warm, moist environment of shoes. Fungal
  infection can also be acquired through manicure
  or pedicure at a salon as the tools used can
  spread infection if theyre not sanitized. People
  with weak immune system, diabetes, using
  artificial nails or nail injury may be more
  likely to contract a fungal nail infection.
  Visible signs of a fungal nail infection include
  scaling under nail, white or yellow streaks on
  the nail, yellow spots at the bottom of the nail
  and an odor coming from the infected
  nail.Paronychias, bacterial nail infection, are
  most often caused by bacteria in the skin around
  the nail that has been damaged by such as nail
  biting, finger sucking, dishwashing, or chemical
  irritants. The most common symptoms and signs are
  swelling around the nail, redness, pus, pain and
  tenderness to touch.There are oral and topical
  treatments available for nail infections.
  Sometimes affected nail is removed so that new
  nail can grow. Laser treatment is also an option
  when infection does not respond to other
  treatments.
