ONYCHOMYCOSIS- NAIL FUNGUS:  Fungal infection of the nail, or onychomycosis, is often ignored because the infection can be present for years without causing any pain.  The disease is characterized by a progressive change in a toenail's quality and color, which is often ugly and embarrassing. 

TREATMENT OF FUNGAL NAILS:  An orthopedic surgeon trained in foot and ankle can detect a fungal infection early, culture the nail, determine the cause, then form a suitable treatment plan. With new technical advances in combination with simple preventive measures, the treatment of this bothersome health problem can often be successful.
