ReinDeerMan Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 I have fungus in my finger nails. Where to go? What can I do by myself? Can anyone recommend a specialist in Bkk or Pattaya? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheryl Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 See a dermatologist. Not everything that looks like fungus is. Lichen planus for example can look much the same. And, if it is fungus, the effective meds can't be bought over the counter. Suggest you see Dr. Parichart at St Louis Hospital Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Why Me Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Try Funginox available OTC for a few days. But like Sheryl says you might want to see a doctor. Don't want to discourage you but nail fungus can be fiercely stubborn. I got it years ago, beat it down with Funginox to one particular finger but that one keeps popping up every couple of months (some remnant spores deep under the nails I assume). Needless to say keep your nails as short as possible and use a separate clipper on afflicted ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way nail fungus just disappears, so it must have been something else. Doesn't help to treat the wrong thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connda Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 If you doctor diagnoses a fungal infection then look into Itraconazole pulse therapy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYGuy816 Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 Right. Best to get it seen by a doctor to know the exact medication for your condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
