How did the toenails get thicker?

The toenails become thicker because of onychomycosis, also called "onychomycosis".

This is caused by mold infection under nails. After fungi invade the deck or nail bed, the cutin in the deck is highly proliferated by fungi, and the accumulation of cutin makes the deck thicker. The symptoms of onychomycosis are mainly deck thickening and turbidity aggravation, which is 2 ~ 3 times thicker than normal deck.

Patients with onychomycosis are usually unconscious, so they will last for several years without being noticed, but the infection will quickly spread to all toenails and even fingernails, causing the nails to stink and darken.

Prevention of onychomycosis:

1. Keeping your feet clean and checking regularly is the best way to prevent onychomycosis.

2. Always trim your toenails and don't let them grow beyond your toes.

3. Disinfect the tools for trimming toenails, and don't share tools with people with beriberi or onychomycosis.

4. Clean and dry feet can prevent onychomycosis.

5. You must wear sterilized slippers in public places such as public bathrooms, swimming pools and foot baths, and it is best to bring your own slippers.

6. Don't polish the toenails that may be infected. Infected toenails have symptoms such as redness or discoloration.

7. Wear shoes and socks of the right size, especially shoes that are too small, so as not to oppress the toenails. The material of shoes should be breathable, and the insole of shoes and socks should be changed every day.

8. Prevent nail injuries.
