Nail fungus and infection
I have toe nail fungus / infection since while.
I tried salicylic sf 12 and propysalic nf ointment. But no improvement.
Since this morning I am seeing the toe as in picture with pain.
I think removing nail is only remedy.
I am from Bangalore.. please suggest if any alternative. And am I need to consult general surgeon or dermatologist?
