Toenail Fungus and Cures

Some people are more susceptible than others, and contract toe fungus with mild to severe symptoms. Factors that permit this disease include:

• the abnormal pH level of the skin,
• trauma to the nail,
• poor hygiene of the foot,
• susceptibility (such as decreased immunity) of the person who has contact with the fungus.

Some estimates are that over 10% of the North American population have fungus of the toenails, and it is one of the most common ailments that foot specialists attend to.
