Black toenails can be very annoying both in appearance and in pain. Some home remedies can be tried for the treatment of black toenails. Although it is not dangerous enough to go to the hospital most of the time, you may have difficulty walking due to the pain.
BLACK TOEnail TREATMENT
There are many methods for treating black toenails. While there are simple applications, more complex treatment methods can also be applied. There are homemade methods that runners also use to drain the blood under the nails. If subungual hematoma formation is caused by a trauma, the method that should be applied is drainage. If the blood protrudes beyond the nail boundaries, a hole is made to give the blood a way out.
MAY HAVE TO DRILL
Treatment for black toenails varies depending on the cause. It may require drainage or surgical intervention. If there is no access through the skin, drainage should be done through the nail. The hard part of the nail would have to be pierced to open the way out. It is not possible to do this at home. Therefore, you need to consult a doctor or podiatrist.
IT CAN TAKE MONTHS TO GET OLD
If drainage is not done, the hematoma will continue its course, the nail will break off from the flesh with the effect of pressure and the blood will disappear. A new nail pops up in its place. While this is not dangerous, the process only takes months to complete.
IN THE CASE OF MUSHROOM…
Antifungal (synthetic pharmacological drugs) agents are selected for fungal infections. Since creams do not penetrate athlete’s feet, polished drugs are preferred. If this application is not successful, the drug can be taken orally.
As a last resort, surgical intervention can be used in subungual melanoma formation. To allow healing, the entire nail should be removed and the tumor removed by opening the margins. This is an intervention that can only be performed by a specialist physician, never try it yourself at home. (Mail)
