Yeasts account for 5\u201310% of active onychomycosis cases and more often affect fingernails.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Molds<\/strong>. This group includes two major fungal families: Moniliaceae and Dematiaceae. In most cases, these fungi cannot cause nail disease on their own and become pathogenic only in combination with other factors, such as bacterial infections or other pathogens.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.5&#8243; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221; use_border_color=&#8221;off&#8221; border_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Conditions for the development of nail fungus:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Pathogenic fungi can enter the nail plate in different ways. The route of infection and the structures affected determine the visible clinical picture of the disease.<\/p>\n<p>The main types of infection are classified as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Distal subungual<\/li>\n<li>Proximal subungual<\/li>\n<li>Superficial<\/li>\n<li>Total dystrophic<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In distal subungual onychomycosis, the fungus penetrates the nail plate from an infection site on the surrounding skin (often without noticeable symptoms). After entering the nail plate, the fungus spreads to the nail bed, causing thickening and separation of the nail plate (onycholysis). The fungus continues damaging the nail and may eventually reach the nail matrix, leading to a more severe form known as total dystrophic onychomycosis. In most cases, this type of infection is caused by Trichophyton rubrum.<\/p>\n<p>Trichophyton interdigitale, however, penetrates the nail directly through its surface and causes damage known as superficial white onychomycosis. The fungus spreads across the nail plate in the form of irregular white patches and may gradually penetrate through all layers of the nail.<\/p>\n<p>The first and fifth toenails are affected most frequently because they are more exposed to trauma while walking. This type of fungal infection often occurs together with interdigital skin infections between the toes.<br \/>The third route of infection occurs through the proximal nail fold. Fungi of the Candida genus most often infect the nail through this pathway. From the nail fold, fungal filaments penetrate the nail matrix and then spread beneath the nail plate, infecting the entire nail bed.<\/p>\n<p>In such cases, the disease often begins acutely, with inflammation affecting the entire nail fold.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;2_3,1_3&#8243; padding_mobile=&#8221;off&#8221; column_padding_mobile=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||0px|&#8221; make_fullwidth=&#8221;off&#8221; use_custom_width=&#8221;off&#8221; width_unit=&#8221;on&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;2_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.5&#8243; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221; use_border_color=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3>Treatment of nail fungus<\/h3>\n<p>All treatment methods for nail fungus aim to eliminate the cause of the disease \u2014 the pathogenic fungus.
