What causes fungal nail infections?
Fungi thrive in moist, warm environments and when given these ideal conditions, they can naturally overpopulate. This is often characterised by fungal infections such as jock itch, athlete’s foot, and ringworm. The same fungus which causes these infections can then continue to cause nail infections. When the fungi overgrow in, under, or on the nail, you will suffer from fungal nail infection.
Fungal nail infections can also be caused by walking barefoot in places where they can be spread easily such as communal showers, changing rooms, and gyms, or from damage to your nails such as split or black nails.
