“]What is onychomycosis? Fungal infection of the nails is described under the general term onychomycosis. As for the responsible fungus, dermatophytes (Trichophyto Rubrum) and Candida species are most often identified. The condition mainly affects adults, however, the number of cases of onychomycosis in childhood seems to increase every year (especially in children with immunosuppression, diabetes mellitus or those who tend to put their fingers in their mouths). The toenails are most commonly affected, although in children younger than 7 years of age the fingernails are the ones with the highest rate of involvement. Onychomycosis must be treated immediately because otherwise it will spread affecting all the nails, but mainly because the affected nail is a gateway for microbes to enter the body which can cause serious problems such as erysipelas. Do we need any laboratory tests before starting treatment? Mycological control should in any case precede the treatment to avoid unnecessary administration of oral antifungal drugs. This is because there are dermatological diseases such as psoriasis, alopecia areata, eczema and congenital onychodystrophy with a clinical picture similar to onychomycosis, so a differential diagnosis must be made. Classic onychomycosis treatments Locally applied medicated nail varnishes (cyclopyroxolamine, amorolfine) are most often not sufficient because the fungus is also deep in the matrix and the nail bed, i.e. under the nail. To be able to get there, the drug (itraconazole, terbinafine, fluconazole) must be administered orally (pill or syrup) and indeed for a long period of 4-6 months (due to the slow rate of nail growth). The problem is that patients with liver or kidney disease may be significantly burdened by such a long-term treatment. Oral drug therapy is also not approved for the treatment of onychomycosis in children. %ce%bf%ce%bd%cf%85%cf%87%ce%bf%ce%bc%cf%85%ce%ba%ce%b7%cf%84%ce%b9%ce1TP 3Tac%cf%83%ce%b7-%ce%bc%ce%b5-%cf%84%ce%b7-%cf%87%cf%81%ce%b7%cf%83%ce%b7 -laser   The evolution in the treatment of onychomycosis with the use of laser Today we have the possibility to use a specialized laser for the treatment of onychomycosis and especially those caused by T.
