Do you know how to deal with thick toenails? Indeed, which treatment to use mainly depends on the cause of thick toenails. In this article, your nail supply specialist Maryton will explain everything to you.

In the case where the thickening of the nails is due to aging, the treatment will be to polish the rough surfaces to smooth them. If it is due to psoriasis, the doctor will give you additional medication to treat thick toenails.

For fungal infections like onychomycosis, treatment may take several months. It should be noted that these infections are best treated at an early stage.

The most common treatments are:

• Cream or ointment.
• Oral medications.
• Removal of the nail to treat the nail bed below.
• Laser therapy.

Anyway, it is necessary to consult a doctor when your toenails are thick. The sooner you do this, the better the treatment will be. Besides, I advise you to invest in a complete pedicure kit to care for your toenails!
