| Abstract | ||||
| Onychomycosis is a nail infection caused by fungi, which may behave as primary pathogens invading the healthy nail plaque or develop secondarily to a preexisting nail disease. The primary concerns of the patients are the risk of spread to other nails or to people in their environment. In addition to these social and emotional problems, onychomycosis is a serious medical problem that can be the source of further fungal infections to surrounding tissues. | ||||
