The reasons for the formation of infection and what is dangerous nail fungus

In addition to the unpleasant external events, the mushroom damages the whole body.Its main danger is that the old mushroom causes the complicated course of other serious diseases (diabetes, allergies, bronchial asthma).Gradually, it completely affects the nail plate and spreads to fabrics in contact with the nail.According to experts, it is a sort of conductor for other infections.Sometimes, against the background of reduced immunity, the pathogen can penetrate the internal organs and cause their defeat.Not the last place in this list is the intoxication of the body.

  1. The trauma of the fingers at the ends helps to penetrate the skin and plate of the horn of sources of infection.
  2. The choice of poor quality shoes from air resistant materials leads to the fact that the legs are constantly in a humid environment.
  3. The violation of hormonal balance in the body and the metabolism of carbohydrates contributes to the propagation of pathogens of various fungal colonies.
  4. Immunodeficiency, due to systemic failures, weakens the degree of comparison of infections.
  5. The therapy with antibiotics and drugs of the bone group group interrupts the balance of useful and harmful microflora, which causes an uncontrolled reproduction of fungal pathogenic agents.
  6. Dryness and drying from the ends are pathologically change the structure of the skin and cornea, which is a condition for the formation of colonies of harmful microorganisms on them.

According to statistics, sometimes the infection occurs in the salons that provide nail processing services, whose employees do not monitor compliance with health and hygienic standards.The fungus "aggravates" more often to adults, in children mycosis is rare.Doctors explain it for age -related changes in the pH of the skin, weakening immunity against the background of various diseases.Sometimes the causes of the development of fungal infection are:

  • thyroid disease;
  • Endocrine disorders;
  • gastrointestinal diseases;
  • Violations of the adrenal glands.

At risk, doctors include people who abuse alcohol, smoke.Recognizing the disease is helped by peculiar changes in the structure of the nail and color.When the mushroom is introduced, it is stained in white, yellow, brown, black shades.

The same nail plate begins to spread and crumble.Over time, his keratinization occurs.The growth on the nail help to recognize mycosis, which become more over time and prevent treatment.However, these symptoms do not occur immediately.

In addition to the aesthetic discomfort, the nail fungus complicates the course of concomitant chronic diseases (asthma, allergies and diabetes).It is characterized by greater resistance and adaptation to many types of treatment.When it leads an incomplete treatment course, a strong decrease in immunity can cause an active relapse of the disease from a small focus of infection.In this case, the return will take place much more complicated.If the mushroom is not treated, therefore it gradually occupies not only the entire nail, but also the skin that surrounds it.This is dangerous as the affected areas are a "door" in the human body for other infections.And the fungus itself with low immunity can affect the internal organs.

  5. The nail plate becomes broken.
  6. It is possible to have allergic manifestations and ulcers.
