This month, our Nail Doctors team up to talk about bacteria spots, perimenopause, toenail fungus, and working after surgery.
Fungal infections of the nails are to nail salons what Elvis sightings are to the National Enquirer — rumored to be everywhere but with no documented proof.
Two of the three latest treatments for fungal nail infections have been on the market for more than a year, and they have proved to work quickly, safely, and less expensively than the medications previously prescribed by dermatologists.
The new ruling is intended to standardize label claims for all OTC antifungal products, eliminate products that contain ingredients deemed unsafe or ineffective and prevent the sale of any antifungal products for the nails and scalp that are not FDA-approved.
Every month, our nail doctor answers readers' questions about any health-related issue.
