CHARLOTTE, NC, May 30, 2013 (Press-News.org) Whether a person is wearing close-toed shoes or hitting the beach with open-toed shoes, Dr. Scott Basinger, Charlotte, NC podiatrist, encourages his patients to properly care for their feet to protect them from worsening. Fungal toenails, or onychomycosis, is a condition that occurs when microscopic fungus enters the toenail. Anyone can develop toenail fungus, but infections tend to be more common in people over the age of 60. For patients who are diabetic or suffer from a weakened immune system, a toenail infection can present risks.

Depending on the type of fungus and its manifestation, patients might experience different signs and symptoms of toenail fungus. In general, patients might have toenail fungus if one or more of your nails are: Thickened, brittle, crumbly or ragged, distorted in shape, dull or dark in color. If a patient notices any of these symptoms, Dr. Scott Basinger, podiatrist in Charlotte, NC urges him or her to visit Ankle & Foot Center of Charlotte for immediate attention and treatment.

Patients may even feel foot pain in Ballantyne, NC and detect a slightly foul odor. When this occurs, patients should visit Dr. Scott Basinger, Ballantyne, NC podiatrist, once an infection begins, as it can persist indefinitely if not treated. If a tiny white or yellow spot under the tip of the nail, this may be the first sign of toenail fungus. If this occurs, it is important to visit Dr. Basinger immediately for the best treatment results.

"When it comes to protecting your feet and nails from harmful infections, prevention is key. I am available to offer helpful prevention techniques so that my patients can take an extra step toward healthy, happy feet this summer. I encourage each of my patients to visit my office at the first sign of an infection so that I can help clear their toenail fungus," said Dr. Scott Basinger, podiatrist in Ballantyne, NC.

If left untreated, a fungal infection can lead to the other toenails, the skin on the feet and even to the fingernails. It is important to always seek care from Dr. Scott Basinger at the initial onset of an infection. With proper consultation, Dr. Basinger can educate his patients about the available treatments for toenail fungus.
