nail rot on thumb
Posted: 12-23-07 19:56pm

I have suspected I have nail rot in my left thumb, a local pharmacy has been heavily advertising with large posters in their window, an expensive brand of nail rot solution called Loceryl

http://www.nailtherot.com.au/

...and its really what brought my thumb to my attention, previously noticed a slight discolouration but didnt give it a second thought.

I enquired about Loceryl, was told it was for severe cases and was very expensive - approx $100 - I was recommended this: Resolve solution at 10 bucks

...but im concerned at the part that suggests my nail will fall off.

Nail Infections: Cut nails suckers as possible. After the infected nail has come off continue treatment until a new one has grown.


Spose I should see a doctor, but it seems quite minor, I just dont like the thoughts of the nail coming totally off.


edit....auto censor is playing with my post, should read "cut nail short as possible"
