symptoms The main thing in self-determination of a disease is not to confuse it with a simpler one, otherwise you will pay less attention to the problem. However, it is best not to engage in self-treatment without an accurate diagnosis of a specialist and the appointment of a professional treatment.
Usually, the fungus of the skin of the hands begins to appear on the nails, and if you do not take urgent treatment, the problem passes to the fingers, to the place between them, on the palm and wrist. If you notice that your nails have acquired a strange yellowish shade, they become thicker or fatter, then it's possible that you became a victim of a fungal infection.
In the hands of the fungus manifests itself in the form of focal flakes. Initially, it can be seen between the fingers and closer to the nails, and after a small reddened dry foci merge together. Then the whole palm is exposed to defeat. Usually the fungus does not extend beyond the hand, but this is the case if you start it in time to treat.
Effective methods of treatment and prevention
Treatment of fungal infections of any kind and on any part of the body is not a problem that can be eliminated with folk remedies and conventional creams. This requires careful specialized treatment.
At home, you can only carry out the prevention of fungal infections, but if your hands are affected by this problem, it is best to consult a specialist, identify the exact form of the fungus and find out what treatment is right for you at the moment. However, if the disease is still at an early stage, then you can independently purchase antifungal agents, most often they are released in the form of ointments and thick creams. You should apply them to the lesions, and for the nail fungus, special lacquers are being produced. The most common drugs for treatment: Exoderyl, Diflucan, Nizoral, Zalain, Ketoconazole, Nofung, Mycosoral, Flukonazol, Mikomaks, Candid, Atifin, Lamisil, Terbizin. Many of them you can use for prevention.
With strongly developed or rapidly developing forms of fungal diseases, ointments alone are not enough. In such cases, the nails are subjected to hardware cleaning, where the upper stratified layer is erased and access of useful substances to the regenerating layer is ensured.

This question can not be given the exact answer to the end, nor can the future be foreseen. But the fungus is certainly widespread almost everywhere. In manicure salons, beauty parlors, on the escalator rails, in the gym and even on the buttons of the keyboard can be his microscopic disputes. Nobody is protected from this disease. However, most often the fungus of the hand skin of a person with weak immunity, having problems of the endocrine system or diabetes mellitus of any type.
