http://www.galderma.com/conditions_wetreat/fungalni.php

Extractions: Last update: September 8, 2005 Conditions We Treat Fungal Nail Infections What is a Fungal Nail Infection? A fungal nail infection, referred to in medical terms as onychomycosis, occurs when fungi (a kind of microorganism) infect your nails. You may first notice the infection as a white or yellow spot under the tip of your nail. Symptoms of a fungal infection may include brittleness, discoloration, thickening and crumbling of the nail, as well as debris under the nail itself. In some cases, the nail can detach from the nail bed. Approximately 50 percent of all nail disorders are fungal infections. There are many contributing causes, including physical damage to the nail, a weakened immune system due to conditions such as diabetes and cancer, and overexposure to water or detergents. How to Manage Fungal Nail Infections What to Expect The appearance of your nail will improve as your nail is slowly replaced by a healthy nail. It is important to keep in mind that this process can take up to 6 months for fingernails and 18 months for toenails. Even in successful cases, relapse is common. Therefore, your doctor may want you to return for periodic visits to evaluate the progress and outcome of your treatment.

Toenails are more commonly affected than fingernails, because they grow very slowly, allowing the fungi more time to develop. As a result, toenails require longer treatment time than fingernails do. There are four major types of fungal infections. One type of fungus, dermatophytes, causes about 90% of all fungal nail infections. The most common fungal nail infection is distal subungual onychomycosis Fungal nail infections are common. Worldwide, 2% to 18% of the population have a fungal nail infection at any given time. The estimated prevalence of fungal nail infections in Canada is 6.5%. They are most common in people older than 60 and rare in children, affecting less than 1% of children at any given time.

FUNGAL NAIL INFECTIONS Dr Philippe Abimelec What is fungal nail infection Fungal nail infections are infections caused by fungi which parasitize the nail. What causes fungal nail infections ? The fungi responsible for fungal nail infections are generally derrnatophytes, less frequently yeast and very rarely moulds. How does one get fungal nail infection Dermatophyte infections One can get dermatophytes by walking barefoot in damp public places (swimming pools, saunas, cloakrooms, dance halls, tatamis of judo halls, theatre stages, etc...). People infected with dermatophytes will leave fragments of infected skin on the ground and in turn contaminate other people. Yeasts : Proliferates under the nails of people overexposed to moisture (excessive hand washing, food and catering professionals, health care professionals, day care centre staff, etc.). In fact, in these cases, infection results from detrimental habits which will have to be changed.

Fungal Infection
fungal Infection. Fungi are very different from bacteria. This is the kindof fungal infection that most of us may be called upon to deal with.
http://www.nuigalway.ie/bac/fungal_infection.htm

Extractions: Fungi are very different from bacteria. In many ways fungal cells are more like animal cells. They have multiple chromosomes in a nucleus within a nuclear membrane. They have cytoplasmic organelles. They do have a cell wall but its composition is quite distinct from the cell wall of bacteria. Yeasts are unicellular fungi that reproduce by binary fission. Moulds or mycelial fungi grow as multi-cellular interlocking strands. Moulds generally have a complex reproductive process involving specialised structures that release spores. Some fungi have yeast like and mould like forms. These are known as dimorphic fungi. Many of the pathogenic fungi are dimorphic fungi with a mould like environmental form and the yeast like form associated with infection. In terms of infection we can think of fungi in two main groups. There are "pathogenic fungi" which can cause infection in people who appear otherwise healthy. The most common of these in this area are the dermatophyte fungi that cause "ring-worm", an infection of the superficial layers of epidermis. Ringworm is often self-limiting and generally easily treated. Dermatophyte infection may be associated with contact with animals but spread from person to person also occurs. Athlete's foot is an even more common superficial infection of the epidermis of the skin. The fungus spreads rapidly in communal changing and showering areas.
