Hello doc. I have an infection around my toenail in the right leg. It's been two months and it has not healed yet. At first it was thought to be fungus infection and I was prescribed medication for it. Then I was prescribed antibiotic. But it has not healed yet.

Toenail infection can also be due irritant dermatitis subsequently getting infected. But I cannot say for sure unless I see it. Please send photos using online consult option for proper examination diagnosis and treatment.
