Fungal nail infection or nail psoriasis – what symptoms indicate fingernail psoriasis?

Fungal nail infections and nail psoriasis can look similar and also occur at the same time. If you notice changes in the color or shape of your nails, it is important to find out the exact cause. Then the irritating symptoms can be treated effectively.

If nail psoriasis treatment is unsuccessful, the nails should be checked for a fungal infection. If this suspicion is confirmed, it is important to treat the fungal nail infection systematically.

Fungal nail infection diagnosis – the treatment options.

If a fungal nail infection is diagnosed, the patient must be prepared for a lengthy course of treatment. The infection has been successfully treated if the nail grows back healthy. The longest treatment time is for toenails because they grow slower than fingernails. The physician usually prescribes a nail polish or lotion. Alternatively, or in addition, the fungal nail infection can be treated with tablets that also contain antifungal ingredients, known as antimycotics. They penetrate the nail layers from the outside or inside and render the fungus harmless.

Where else can psoriasis occur and what are the special features of nail psoriasis?

Many people also suffer from psoriasis on their elbows, hands, and scalp. The symptoms of hand and elbow psoriasis can often be severe because these areas of skin are under a lot of stress every day.

Fingernails and toenails grow back very slowly. Consequently, the treatment requires more patience, but it does bring successful results.

So be patient: Alnovat soothes fingernail and toenail symptoms.

… I have psoriasis under my fingernails. My conclusion, it > quickly relieves the itching, smells rather like marzipan, but this disappears after applying the cream…
