Toenail fungus is unsightly, difficult to treat and difficult to prevent, and it tends to be caused by one of the following elements:<br /><br />Trauma: when a toenail is hit against something, the toenail lifts from the nail bed allowing fungus to creep under the nail and set in. If the nail is protected immediately after, fungus may be prevented. Ask your doctor how to prevent bacteria and fungus from getting under your nail bed. Salt water soaks, hydrogen peroxide, betadine, gentian violet all may help prevent toenail fungus. <br /><br />Environment: when a toenail is exposed to wet areas, high humidity, warm temperatures, or alkaline environment [high pH], this sets up the opportune spot for fungus to set in. Create a dry, breathable and acidic environment. Vegetarians are more prone to fungus as their diet is highly alkaline. Skin is supposed to be slightly acidic so use moisturizers that promote that. Use all cotton or all wool socks as these breathe well and may help prevent toenail fungus.<br /><br />Weak immune function: if the immune system is not functioning strongly, it cannot fight local infections such as toenail fungus. Support the immune system with proper diet, rest, exercise and supplements. <br /><br />Poor blood circulation: without proper blood flow to an area, the immune system cannot get there. Then toenail fungus can set it. Also poor blood flow leads to poor nail nutrition allowing the nail bed to be traumatized more easily - trauma may lead to toenail fungus. Exercise, dress appropriately and consider contrast showers. They warm you up and increase circulation. <br /><br />Thats all for now<br /><br /><br /><span class="technoratitag">Technorati Tags:<br /><a href="http://www.technorati.com/tag/toenail+fungus" target="_blank" rel="tag" title="Link to Technorati Tag category for toenail fungus">toenail fungus</a>, <a href="http://www.technorati.com/tag/cure+toenail+fungus" target="_blank" rel="tag" title="Link to Technorati Tag category for cure toenail fungus">cure toenail fungus</a>, <a href="http://www.technorati.com/tag/toenail+fungus+treatment" target="_blank" rel="tag" title="Link to Technorati Tag category for toenail fungus treatment">toenail fungus treatment</a></span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32326436-115517598618343833?l=toenail---fungus.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Paul Simpsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12429745194680267855noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32326436.post-1155073290185966292006-08-08T14:37:00.000-07:002006-08-08T14:41:30.196-07:00<strong>Toenail Fungus</strong><br /><br />Hello again,<br /><br />Today I would like to give you some links to some related toenail fungus blogs that I think you may find useful:<br /><br /><a href="http://cure-athletes-foot-fungus.blogspot.com">Athletes foot</a><br /><a href="http://nail---fungus.blogspot.com">Nail fungus</a><br /><a href="http://jock-itch.blogspot.com">Jock itch</a><br /><br />Thanks for reading my toenail fungus blog.
