Nail fungus can make your toe nails and even your fingernails look like they are rotting away when the nails turn an unsightly yellow and become unnaturally thick. An infection of the nails by fungi (called onychomycosis in medical terminology) is not simply a cosmetic problem; it is not inherited; and it is contagious.
Dear Reader, The loss of a toenail, also called onychoptosis (which literally means falling nail in Greek), can be largely blamed on two major culprits â fungus and injury. Fungus: Several different types of microscopic fungi can cause onychoptosis by feeding on keratin, the tough protein that makes up toenails. Onychoptosis caused by fungus isn't that rare a problem â three to five percent of Americans are affected, as are up to 18 percent of people worldwide.
