Toenail Fungus
Toenail fungus usually begins as a small spot under your nail and, slowly but surely, affects your entire nail. As it spreads, toenail fungus begins to make your toenails thickened and discolored. This fungal infection can spread to your skin or fingernails, although fungus on the fingernails is pretty uncommon. Toenail fungus often thrives because your feet provide a warm, dark, and often damp environment.
Ingrown Toenails
Ingrown toenails can be treated at home or resolve themselves, but there are cases of ingrown toenails that start out as a seemingly small issue and end up becoming a more serious problem. Oftentimes, this happens in conjunction with diabetes, as an ingrown toenail may go unnoticed for too long and cause an infection.
If you have diabetes, it is critical to see us as soon as possible when you experience any condition involving your feet. As a diabetic, your risk of a small problem like fungus or an ingrown toenail becoming a big problem increases due to poor circulation.
