Onychomycosis is a fungal infection of the nail, causing discoloration and thickening of the affected nail plate.
Although it is not life-threatening, fungal nail infections are a significant public health concern because of their high prevalence, inadequate response to therapy, and significant clinical, social, and financial impact.
Onychomycosis was initially thought to be caused by dermatophytes predominantly; however, new research has revealed that mixed infections and those caused by non dermatophyte molds (NDMs) are more prevalent than thought previously, especially in warmer climates.
