Onychomycosis
Onychomycosis means fungal infection of the nails. This condition may
affect toe- or fingernails, but toenail infections are particularly
common. The prevalence of onychomycosis is about 6-8% in the adult
population. The most common type of onychomycosis, caused by
dermatophytes, is technically known as tinea unguium (tinea of the
nails).
