[Column] Beware of "nail fungus"! Did you know that 1 in 10 people are infected...?

Don't overlook the signs of toenail fungus!
What are the key points for treating toenail fungus?

When you hear the term "athlete's foot," you probably imagine a disease that develops between the toes. But did you know that there's also something called "nail fungus" that can develop on and around the nails?
It is said that this condition often occurs in conjunction with athlete's foot, but because it does not cause the characteristic itchiness of athlete's foot, it is a disease that is difficult to notice. As a result, symptoms such as rough, brittle nails and crumbling toenails tend to progress. When this happens, the desire to enjoy fashion, such as applying pedicures or wearing sandals, is halved.

Even more surprising, approximately one in three women have worried that they might have athlete's foot (according to a survey by Rohto in February 2007), which shows just how common athlete's foot is.

Don't overlook the signs of toenail fungus!

"Nail fungus" is caused by a type of fungus called dermatophyte that invades the nail from the skin. It is a very common disease, with an estimated 1 in 10 people having been infected at some point. It is rare for nails to be the only source of fungus; in most cases, people already have athlete's foot on their feet, and the fungus then spreads to their nails.
If you experience any of the following symptoms, you should suspect toenail fungus.

The skin around my nails has become thick and rough.
Part of the nail is cloudy with a whitish or yellowish tint.
My nails have become thick and crumble.
Wearing shoes causes pressure and pain.

What are the key points for treating toenail fungus?

If you notice any symptoms, it's important to address them as soon as possible. First, see a dermatologist for a diagnosis. If it's confirmed that you have toenail fungus, you will start taking oral antifungal medication that is highly effective against toenail fungus and kills the fungus.
In daily life, it's important to keep the following three points in mind.

Keep your feet clean

Wash your feet thoroughly every day. Spread your toes apart and wash them well with soap. After all, cleanliness is paramount!
Dry thoroughly

After thoroughly washing the area in the bath, carefully dry it with a towel.
Use topical medications correctly

It's best to apply the medication after a bath when your skin is soft. Apply it broadly, focusing on the affected area.

Even when the symptoms seem to subside, the persistent athlete's foot fungus often hasn't been completely eradicated.
If left untreated, the fungus can spread under the nail, leading to toenail fungus, which is difficult to treat and takes a long time to heal completely. It is important to address the problem as early as possible and to continue treatment patiently.
However, you might feel hesitant about buying athlete's foot medication, and applying it multiple times a day can be a hassle, right?

For women like that, I recommend Mentholatum Exiv, an antifungal medication that can be effective with just one application per day.

This highly effective treatment was developed for women suffering from persistent athlete's foot. Furthermore, its attention to detail, including fragrance and texture, and its simple packaging, aims to support a positive attitude towards treating athlete's foot.

Three key points of "Mentholatum Exiv"

POINT 1

Boasting excellent germ-killing power! Applying it once a day is sufficient.

The secret to its effectiveness with just one application a day lies in the active ingredient "terbinafine hydrochloride," which exhibits excellent antibacterial properties. It works by blocking the synthesis of the cell membrane of athlete's foot fungi at an early stage. Furthermore, by penetrating deep into the stratum corneum, it destroys even the most lurking athlete's foot fungi, leading to beautiful, healthy feet.
