Infected toenail
(2 discussions)
I have just lost my toenail to what appears to be a fungus.
It has happened before yet, this time, I have a hard, dark brownish growth covering 1/4 of the nailbed.
It is inbedded… interferring with a new nail growth.
What is this?
How can it be removed?
Thanks.

The greater toenail on each foot is dacaying and a thick crust building up under them. The nails are black and falling apart. I have used several medications for fungus and they clear up and in approximately a week or two after it returns. I would like to know what is causing this and how to treat it? Appreciative, Ms. Grace Coley

Without seeing your nails and running the appropriate tests, I am fairly sure you have onychomycosis. There is an excellent link that you can get a great deal of information about this.http
