Infections - Fungal...
Infections - Fungal of the toenail
The most common of these is known as Athletes Foot. When you have this problem the appearance of the nails usually change. The nails can become thickened crumbly and discoloured. The nail can lift off the nail bed. The nails may also get thicker and smell musty. Sometimes the nail looks OK except for the presence of a white powdery matter on the top of the nail only. The Hills Foot Clinic can treat this problem and prescribe excellent products for long term treatment.
Infections - Fungal of the skin
The skin can also be infected with fungus resulting in purplish spots, which discharge a clear fluid and become itchy (see the above picture). The soles of the feet are a common infection site. We have a variety of specialised equipment which can tidy up all these problems. We may also prescribe specific products to remedy this problem.
