Most commonly found in toe nails, onychomychosis causes the nail to become discolored, thickened, brittle and separated from nail bed. Risk of infection increases with age, particularly from around 40 years and with certain medical conditions. Recent studies confirm that the incidence of onychomycosis is on the rise. Often these treatment options demonstrated limited success or caused unpleasant side effects in the gall bladder, gastrointestinal disorders and the risk of liver damage. Many times patients complain of rash, nausea, headaches and other related effects. Toenail Fungus laser treatment is a new breakthrough procedure in treating toenail fungus infection. Latest studies conducted in the US, Canada, and Britain has garnered popularity for foot laser therapy, showing high efficacy rates. Experts in the field agree that new technologies can make a major impact in the lives of people suffering with this embracing condition. Each patient's history is different and must be considered in initiating the most appropriate therapy. Some factors are the culture of nail specimens, diabetes, old age, poor circulation, exposure to trauma, and activities contributing to excessive foot sweat. Should this test positive for any one of the four types of onychomycosis, the foot specialist is able to devise a specific regimen of laser treatment for recovery. The success of the clinical use of laser is dependent on wavelength, output power, exposure- and the size, type and colour of nail tissue. The laser penetrates the plate of the nail and produces heat that permeates the nail tissue where treatment activity takes place. The procedure is simple and quick with no reported or noticeable side effects. The method is useful for a broad range of patients, especially beneficial to the elderly and those compromised by alternate treatments referred to earlier. Laser therapy is a safe, efficient and modern way to fight all types of toenail fungal infections.
