Nail fungus is a common disease that occurs when the nail grows in the wrong direction, causing inflammation, infection and pus in the soft tissue around it, resulting in redness, swelling and pain. The following are some of the details that we need to pay attention to on a daily basis: 1. Trim your nails properly. We need to take care of our nails and the soft tissues around them. Don’t trim your nails, soft tissues, or pull out barbs, especially if you trim your nails too short, which can easily cause nail infections. 2, protect our nail crevices from harm. We need to protect our nails from external objects (meat spikes, fish spikes, bamboo sticks, small fragments) to prevent nail fungus from occurring. 3, timely treatment of nail wounds. When our nails and surrounding soft tissues are injured, they should be treated promptly to prevent infection around the nail from triggering the occurrence of nail fungus. 4. Treat mild nail infections promptly. For mild nail infection we should treat it in time to prevent aggravation of the condition to induce septicemia.
