Onychopathy refers to all diseases that affect the nails. These are diseases that are very difficult to treat because the hands and feet are often exposed to various external factors that are not always conducive to healing. However, this type of disease can become very bothersome if not treated quickly enough.
Onychomycosis is an infection of the nails caused by dermatophyte microbes. They are microscopic fungi that feed mainly on keratin in the nails. Their development is encouraged by the wearing of closed shoes. Nails with this condition become thicker and rougher and take on an unusual coloration. Without specific treatments, these nails can fall out.
In addition to onychomycosis, other relatively serious nail diseases can even paralyze the patient. Onychoptosis is one of these diseases and manifests itself by the loss of the nails. We can also mention onyxis which is an inflammation of the inner layer of the nail, onycholysis which is revealed by the separation of the nail and the nail pulp, onychogryphosis which is an abnormal increase in the volume of the nails, onychoschizia which is manifested by the detachment of the nails, or onychotrophy which results in the reduction of the thickness and dimensions of the nail.
Homeopathic treatments to treat onychopathy
There are several types of homeopathic remedies to treat nail diseases. In most cases, these remedies come in the form of natural components and essential oils that not only effectively eliminate the microbes that cause the disease, but above all stimulate the body to make antibodies to defeat the disease. In any case, it is always advisable to consult a doctor who will be able to prescribe the appropriate treatment. In the case of onychomycosis, treatment may be based on Antimonium crudum or Graphites. Dermisil Nail Infection is also very effective in treating this disease, with three applications a day, until the symptoms disappear completely and the nails grow back completely.
In
addition to the application of homeopathic remedies, the patient must comply with a few conditions to speed up his recovery. Thus, the patient should always make sure to wash his feet well and dry them well afterwards. It is also preferable to ventilate the feet as much as possible by wearing sandals, but in the event that you have to wear closed shoes, it is recommended to put on only cotton socks. Finally, it is also advisable to always have short nails and to apply anti-fungal products to the feet.
