Fungal nail infections can cause thickening, discoloration, crumbling edges, and changes in nail shape. They’re common and can be stubborn.

Treatment options may include debridement (reducing thickness), topical treatments, and in some cases oral medication (via your GP when appropriate). The best approach depends on severity and your medical history.

Nails grow slowly, so improvement takes time — often months. A podiatry plan can help you choose the most effective route and reduce the chance of recurrence.
