When Is It Time to See a Dermatologist?
This natural treatment works well for mild cases or at the onset of infection. However, be aware: seek professional medical advice if:
- The fungus affects more than one nail or spreads to the surrounding skin.
- There is redness, pain, swelling, or discharge.
- You have diabetes, circulatory problems, or a compromised immune system.
- There is no improvement after 4 weeks of continuous use.
