Keep reading to learn how to prevent fungal nails, and find out about new laser technology- PinPointe FootLaser- for quick, safe and effective nail fungus removal. Toenail fungus is anything but pleasant, and an all too common complaint experienced by patients. Characterized by thick, discolored nails, fungal nails can be embarrassing, unsightly and uncomfortable. On the other hand, some patients can go months without taking action because they experience little or no pain at all. Treatment for fungal nails may vary, depending on the severity of the infection. And even the best over-the-counter treatments won't always prevent a fungal infection from reoccurring. Your Chicago podiatrist can detect toenail fungus easily and help determine the most appropriate treatment. Mild cases of toenail fungus can be treated with topical or oral medications, while severe cases may require partial or complete removal of the infected nail. Luckily, a new breakthrough in technology is now making it possible to get rid of your nail fungus in as little time as a lunch break- a new procedure known as PinPointe FootLaser.
