Lifted Toe Nails, In-growth Nail. Fungus? Laser Therapy?
i have 2 lifted toe nails (the big ones) in the edges. it is not fungus, i had been taken off my nails many times when i was young due to ingrown nail . Now that a specialist has put a gel on my nails, those grow normaly and out of my skin but they lift in the edges and get yellow accumulating a lot of debris. Could laser therapy be a solution?

Hi yellow stuff in between skin and nails can be onychomycosis.it is a fungal infection.it can be cured by flucanazole 150 mg twice a week for 6 months and application of nailon lotion over the nails can cure the condition.use biotin supplementation for healthy nail growth.
