What are Fungal Nails?

Fungal nails—also known as onychomycosis—are infections caused by fungi that invade the nail bed and surrounding tissue. They often develop slowly and may begin as a small spot under the nail, eventually causing thickening, discoloration, and brittleness. Fungal nail infections are highly contagious and can spread to other nails or skin if left untreated.

Common Symptoms of Fungal Nails

  • Yellow, white, or brown discoloration
  • Thickened or distorted nails
  • Brittle, crumbly, or ragged nail edges
  • Nail separation from the nail bed
  • Foul odor
  • Pain or discomfort in advanced cases
