Toenail fungus (onychomycosis) is a chronic infection that gradually destroys nail tissue, causing discoloration, thickening, and brittleness. It is contagious, persistent without treatment, and frequently complicated by concurrent athlete’s foot. Prescription-grade therapy is required for effective eradication.
