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.
Toenail fungus is probably the topic that readers have asked us most about over the years. Thatâs not surprising since it is so common, so unpleasant, and so hard to treat. The fungus causes the toenail, particularly on the big toe, to thicken and discolor; the end may separate from the nail bed. Often, the nail is so thick you canât cut it. In severe cases, the nail may detach and fall off. Medically known as onychomycosis, toenail fungus is increasingly common, possibly because of lifestyle changes and an aging population.
