We all sit and Google stuff, but try searching for toenail fungus and how it correlates with weight gain. Studies show that unhealthy weight gain increases a person\u2019s chances of getting disfiguring toenail fungus infections. If you look up obesity, you\u2019ll see that obese people have double the rate of toenail infections, also known as onychomycosis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Podiatrist, Dr. Arti C. Amin, agrees with these statistics and says that her overweight and obese patients definitely have problems with toenail fungus. She treats them for this but also goes the extra mile to review their medical history. For example, it is extremely common for overweight patients to present as pre-diabetic or diabetic and this affects the treatment plan. According to Dr. Amin, the pain caused by toenail infections can be very debilitating and, if not treated correctly, can result in other co-infections. If it advances too far, onychomycosis may require painful injections administered around the nail bed. There is also the appearance aspect to this condition; it doesn\u2019t look pleasant so people tend to wear socks to cover it and there\u2019s definitely no showing off your toenails in a pair of high heels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You need a professional to treat toenail fungus and Dr. Amin is that person. Don\u2019t go to the local nail salon and expect them to know what to do. They may tell you some tall tale about an old method that works, but Dr. Amin cautions that the chance of getting an incurable infection is very high and, in extreme cases, can result in amputation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So what can you do?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
