Can I still take a bath if I have a toenail fungus?

21-year-old woman2 years ago

Hello, I have a fungus on my toenails. The farmacian gave me a product but he advised me to let them breathe as much as possible (without stockings or shoes) and to wet them as little as possible. baths are not recommended at this time? Should I take a shower earlier? Or does it not matter if I dry well?

Good morning, ma'am,

Indeed, the important thing is to dry your feet, your toes and the space between your toes.

Sincerely

Tom Samaha, pharmacist
