I am in desperate need of some advice. Just recently I noticed that my index finger is kinda yellow and I has small little bumps on the right side of the nail. I don't know how to treat it because I heard that over the counter medicine was bad for you liver but also that creams and stuff doesnt work either. Please tell me what worked and how you got it.
Thanks so much! %26lt;3What do i do about my fingernail fungus?
Onychomycosis is fungal infection of the nail plate, nail bed, or both.
Over-the-counter creams and ointments generally do not help treat this condition.
Prescription antifungal medicines taken by mouth may help clear the fungus in about 50% of patients. However, such medicines can cause side effects or may interfere with other medications. Some of the oral medications used to treat fungal infections of the nail can harm the liver.
In some cases, the health care provider may remove the nail. Nails grow slowly. Even if treatment is successful, a new, clearer nail may take up to a year to grow in.What do i do about my fingernail fungus?
Get a bowl and put for example 1 cup water and 1 cup with vinegar. the solution has to be 50% and 50%. Leave it soaking for 30 minutes for 3 times a day. you can also put 2 drops of vinegar on ur nail. but make sure that the vinegar stays there for at least 30 mins. the fungus will disappear because vinegar kills. and be sure you dry ur funger nail really good
Over the counters creams sometimes work if its a really good one. and dont make damage to the liver.the opi brand has a really good one for fungus.
Goodluck xx
u'd need antibiotics along with topical ointments for treatment. I'd rather refrain from self treatment see a doc. He'll be able to suggest the best treatment while being careful of not producing significant side effects.
I hope u have cut ur nails short. do not scratch ur body or put ur fingers in ur eyes/ mouth.
Go to this site. It should help you . You can also ask questions to the author. I hope it helps!
Pop along to your doctor and get the correct treatment for your nail, and stop listening to old wives tales.
that sounds like a WART go and get some FREEZE OFF it worked for me and my liver is fine....good luck

Whats's the best way to get rid of baby's fingernail scratches on her neck?
My baby has scratched her neck pretty bad and it looks more like a rash then a rash then a scratch, but there are a few broken blood vessels. Whats the best rememdy to cut down on the redness of it?Whats's the best way to get rid of baby's fingernail scratches on her neck?
My daughter's pediatrician told me to put Aquaphor on any dry or rashy areas that she may have, whether it be on the face or anywhere else. It is expensive but for my baby, it worked.Whats's the best way to get rid of baby's fingernail scratches on her neck?
I would consult your babies pediatrician before applying anything to the rashes/scratches, just to make sure.
But you could use aquaphor
To prevent this (cause my son used to be a forehead scratcher when he was a baby, especially when he got really tired and cranky), every other day or so, clip your baby's nails. or use those mittens. I used the mittens on my son for about a month or two. but i was clipping his nails about every two days (his grew really fast lol)
Cut your child's nails. Other than that it is just going to take time. Make sure when you bath your child you dry his/her neck very well and put a little bit of baby powder on it. If it is a rash you want to keep it as clean as possible.
Broken blood vessels?
Usually when my daughter scratches her face we don't put anything in it and it goes away on its own within 1-2 days.
Broken blood vessels sounds pretty serious...
Keep the nails cut and you won't have this problem.
just put a topical antibiotic ointment such as neosporion it and let it heal on it's own. Don't pick at it or anything.
Good Luck %26amp; God Bless!

How do you get fingernail polish off of a tile floor?
non acetone fingernail polish removerHow do you get fingernail polish off of a tile floor?
pick at it just like ya' do when it's on your fingernails.
Kiddin' kiddin'
What type of tiles are they?
Glazed Ceramic? easy, fingernail polish remover then wipe off the still wet residue
Terra Cotta? That's a little trickier as the polish has more than likely soaked into the clay unless it too has a finish on it. Try the nail polish remover, but beware of making the stain larger than what it allready might be...otherwise no smearing!How do you get fingernail polish off of a tile floor?
You don't. There was some on the bathroom floor when I moved in. I've lived here 7 years, it's still there. You could try nail polish remover but only if you can chance damaging the finish.
with fingernail polish remover . Just use a little, and rub it off.

Gouge out of my fingernail, what can I do, painful?
I was cleaning an apartment yesterday and was scrubbing some paint off the bottom of the patio door and my fingernail caught on a staple that was in the carpet. It took a piece of my nail out in the middle of my fingernail. It's painful and hurts to put any pressure on it. Even to type. Is there anything I can do or put on it to make it less painful?Gouge out of my fingernail, what can I do, painful?
Try putting the neosporin + pain relief on it. It contains lidocane which will help numb it and the neosporin will help keep it clean. I'd also put a bandaid on it while you put the neosporin on it so that it doesn't come off right away.Gouge out of my fingernail, what can I do, painful?
I'd use an antibiotic ointment, and then apply a band-aid to keep even pressure on the nail. But not so tight that your circulation is compromised. If you notice that the finger or nail is getting swollen or hot to the touch or the skin around the nail is becoming redder, it could be signs of an infection, and should be looked at by a doctor in case you need oral antibiotics.
I agree with the neosorin with pain relief. Also you could stick your finger in ice to numb it.

The Mayo Clinic also offers very good information at http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/nail-fu鈥?/a>
Fingernail fungus is difficult to treat. Quite often, topical (on the skin) preparations do not work and an oral antifungal is needed.
You may of course try home remedies (petrolatum jelly, garlic, salt, scalding water {ouch}, rubbing alcohol, lemongrass oil, vinegar, etc.!) but most physicians just roll their eyes when you mention using these. I'm not recommending any of them, but you may want to do some research on your own.

Why is my fingernail falling off for no reason?
I have not smash it.Why is my fingernail falling off for no reason?
Iron deficency test: Go to the mirror and pull your lower eyelid and see if the color is red or flesh color. If its flesh colored you are lacking enough iron and should take a herbal iron like Floradix. It will take a month to see a difference. Iron carrys oxygen in your blood and if you dont have it you will feel tired, cold hands and feet, headaches, RLS, dull brittle hair, brittle nails, poor sleep, pale skin (see thru), shortness of breath, fatigue, poor concentration, low mood, ringing in the ears, cracks in the corner of the mouth, dizziness, fainting, sore tongue and canker sores oh and pale mucous membranes in lower eyelid.
