Toe nail fungal infection.
I have fungal infection under my toe nail. Earlier I thought the colour change is due to ingrown nail as my nail also curl inside from the side and makes it uncomfortable. It's been a couple of moths now. Upon further inspection I realised that it's due to fungal infection as the nail bed also feels crumbly to touch. Please suggest an over the counter medicine to treat it.

A toenail fungal infection, or onychomycosis, can be treated with antifungal medications, topical or oral. It's advisable to consult for proper diagnosis and guidance on the most suitable treatment for your specific situation. Good foot hygiene and keeping your feet dry can also help prevent further infection.
