Suggest Treatment For Discharge From Toenails
My toenail(s) are oozing clear liquid and are loose but it doesn t seem like it s completely loose to where it s going to fall off. One for sure isn t the other is a bit looser but seems still pretty attached at the sides and bottom. How can I care for this? I m currently staying in another country until September and I have bandaids wrapped on both big toes to keep pressure. Will this work?

Hello
Thanksfor the query.
Probably you have developed fungal infection of nail known as onychomycosis.
I treat such cases with a topical antifungal cream like clotrimazole to be applied twice daily for a month and oral fluconazole tablet weekly once for a month.
This combination works well.
It is safe and effective.
You can try this in consultation with your doctor.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you.
