How to彻底 treat灰指甲 (onychomycosis)

Radical treatment of gray nail (onychomycosis) requires a combination of various methods, mainly including pharmacotherapy, surgical treatment, and physical therapy. 1. **Pharmacotherapy**: Antifungal medications such as terbinafine and itraconazole can be taken orally. These medications inhibit fungal growth and promote nail recovery. Additionally, topical applications such as miconazole nitrate cream and amorolfine hydrochloride cream can enhance the antimicrobial effect and promote skin healing. However, it should be noted that oral medications may affect liver and kidney function to some extent. They should be used under a physician's guidance, and regular follow-up examinations are necessary. 2. **Surgical Treatment**: For single or severe cases of gray nail, surgical nail removal may be considered. However, this method involves a large wound surface, causes significant pain, and carries a high risk of infection; therefore, it is generally not the first-line treatment option. 3. **Physical Therapy**: Treatments such as long-wave light therapy and infrared irradiation can destroy bacteria, inhibit fungal growth, and promote nail recovery.
