I have a nail that is yellow and painful. I have Lamisil at home. Can I put it on the nail and as much as possible under the nail?

Question

I am 29 years old. The only physical health problem I have is tachycardia. I take the birth control pill, micronor. I got the name of the antifungal wrong. It is Lamisil cream that I have at home. I have fungus on my upper body too (chest, arms, neck, shoulder).

Hello Ma'am, You can try applying Lamisil™ under the nail, but that may well not be enough. The best thing to do in my opinion is to consult a podiatrist or doctor to see if medication by mouth, which is often more effective, could be prescribed. Good day, Alexandre Chagnon, pharmacist
