Hello again from the Compound Lab!
Today, I’m focusing on a special type of dermatological condition: nail infections.
As you might guess, nail infections occur when either bacteria or a fungus makes a home in your nail and/or nail bed and begins to spread. Nail infections can happen in both your fingernails and your toenails—which can lead to nail discoloration & thickening, itchiness, pain, and even spreading of the infection to your skin itself.
Unfortunately, once you have a nail infection, it can be tricky to cure; treatment can take months or years to fully clear the infection. And even once it is cleared, the infection can return later, requiring another round of treatment. As you might guess, this can become expensive.
Fortunately, we can compound affordable treatment options for these nail infections that will last months at a time. In other words, even for longer treatment periods, you don’t have to worry about breaking the bank to return your nails to their healthy state. If you’re interested, we’d love to explain what options we have for you—so you can start your road to healthy nails as soon as possible.
As always, we're available in the lab Monday through Friday, 9am to 5pm. Or you can email me anytime at brandon.ladage@belewdrugs.com. We’d love to hear from you!
Until next time,
Brandon
