Diseases

Tinea Unguium

Tinea unguium, is a fungal infection of the nail. This condition may affect toenails or fingernails, but toenail infections are particularly common. ... It is the most common disease of the nails and constitutes about half of all nail abnormalities.

SYMPTOMS

The main symptoms are changes in the appearance of nails. Rarely, the condition causes pain or a slightly foul odour.

CAUSES

A fungal nail infection occurs from the overgrowth of fungi in, under, or on the nail. Fungi thrive in warm, moist environments, so this type of environment can cause them to naturally overpopulate. The same fungi that cause jock itch, athlete's foot, and ringworm can cause nail infections.
