Before determining mushrooms on leg nails, always consider the visual state of the pedicure.This is recommended to review the suspicious area 2-3 times a day.At this stage, the use of folk antifungal methods that prevent further development of the disease are recommended.
The main signs of damage to the type of fungus you have infected are dependent.Also, the defeat often appears on the sensitive leather leg or arms, then the symptoms are different:

How to determine the nail fungal at home
In order to address the doctor, you can spend diagnostics yourself, but be careful - the result is not always accurate, especially in the presence of initial forms of infection progress.
In addition, a visual change of manicure does not always indicate the presence of mycosis, often deformation occurs after mechanical load on your fingers or reducing local matrix immunity.
There are two main ways to test nails on fungals:
- By means of potassial permanganate.The method is safe for the girl and there is no contraindication, except for an allergic reaction to the drug.For the procedure, the solution of potassium permangers is diluted in a small concentration in warm water.Hands or legs are located in the bathtub 10 minutes, during this time healthy skin and nails are stained dark and infected remain in the same condition.
- Using iodine.IOD is not suitable for identifying parts of fungi, including onychomicosis, but shows the presence of lichens, micosa, dermatological problems.To perform an analysis, leather and plate must be treated with the solution of Joda and waited for 10-15 minutes until it is manifested.A healthy surface will ultimately have pale color and infected with dark, rich.
Note that sometimes the necessary manipulations are needed twice to ensure as a result (it may be necessary for the initial stages of disease development).
How to distinguish mycose nails from other diseases?
In the home diagnosis of the state of natural pedicure, you need to consider all signs and symptoms of gradual damage to the board or deterioration of the Epidermo quality.
Often mycosis in early phases can be confused with dermatological diseases, finger damage, or external factors (use of chemicals without gloves, frostbite, cosmetics with low cosmetics, allergies to applied compounds).
MyCosis has several functions:
- Gradually.Lesions progress always occurs in phases: at first shade simply changes, and finally, the infection can lead to full separation of tissue nail beds;
- An unpleasant odor.A characteristic acid odor is manifested from an infected surface only in the presence of fungi;
