Keep nail fungus at bay
NAIL fungus can be a real nightmare and quite an embarrassment.
What does nail fungus look like? When a nail is attacked by fungus, it becomes brittle and splits easily. Fungus discolours the nails, causing them to be deformed.
Fungal nail infection is caused by various fungi which abound in the environment. Not everybody may be aware of the condition, but those who have suffered from it know how severe it can get. It also takes patience to wait until it is completely cured.
Nail fungus is more likely to develop in warm, moist conditions, such as showers and sweaty shoes.
Initially, dermatophytes grow and feed on the nail until fungus sets in. The fungus will eventually attack the nail root. When the nail grows, it will thicken and become deformed.
In most cases, fungus attacks the big toe. It can get uncomfortable wearing shoes when one has a fungal nail infection.
Worse still, nail fungus can affect the skin area around the nail to give off a foul odour and ultimately result in the loss of the nail in its advanced stage.
Wearing shoes with an infected nail will worsen the condition.
You can pick up a fungal infection while walking barefoot around a swimming pool, in a gym locker room or shower, or even when having a pedicure under less-than-sanitary conditions. Susceptibility may be heightened among those who have diabetes, an immune-deficiency condition, a history of athlete’s foot or those prone to excessive perspiration.
Foot fungus usually travels through an opening in the skin or separation in the nail bed and if continually exposed to warm and moist environments, it will grow in abundance.
Say goodbye to nail fungus
Excilor Treatment for Fungal Nail infection is a clinically proven remedy that treats fungal infections on nails, helps reduce and eliminate the visible signs of infection and discolouration and promotes the appearance of healthy nails.
A study has shown that 81% of patients see improvement in 42 days.
Excilor effectively treats fungal infections at the root. The most important constituent of toenails and fingernails is keratin, which most anti-fungal preparations are unable to penetrate.
In most cases, fungi grow underneath the nail, which makes it difficult to treat.
Excilor is specially formulated to effectively penetrate below the surface of nails to treat infections from the root. It controls the micro-environment of the nail by acidifying the nail bed.
Excilor immediate lowers the pH of the nail, creating an environment that is hostile to fungal growth. Once a new nail grows, the infection should be eliminated.
Excilor comes with a penshaped applicator, making it quick and easy to use. It is available at all leading pharmacies nationwide.
