Fungal nail infection is, as you rightly say, very difficult to clear and also has a nasty habit of recurring. The best treatment is an oral drug called Limisil taken every day for three months.
I appreciate that you can't take this right now so your alternative is a medicated nail polish containing the anti-fungal drug ciclopirox. Applying this every day for three months should make a difference.
Ok this has happened to me twice n the last 2 years or so... When I wear nail polish longer than say 3 week or so, I go to remove the polish and my 2 big toe nails are most white, looking like they've been scratched up. Does polish really cause this?? I'm afraid to just cover over it with new polish for fear it won't go away. The first time I saw that I did not put any polish on again and it tooks months and months for that to go away.
I just took my BLUE nail polish off and my nails are orange? Wtf lol I don't smoke and it won't come off with nail polish remover. Did blue polish really stain my nails orange or is there something else going on?
I've been using nail polish & nail polish remover & kind of inhaled it. I'm 6 months. Can it still cause harm to my baby?
Prior the the potential exposure, I was prescribed a topical nail fungus medication (ClearNails Pro) that is fat soluble and claims to penetrate to the nail bed. This medication contains a drug called ciclopirox which was recently discovered to kill hiv infected cells in vitro. The percentage of ciclopirox is 6 percent.
1. Since my fungal medication is fat soluble and contains ciclopirox, will it enter the blood stream in enough concentration to affect the accuracy of an hiv antibody test?
It's fine. . Just wear a mask to cover your nose and mouth If you can't handle the Smell.. They should have them there, you can just ask for one and if you go to a nail salon make sure they properly clean their tools.
