Onychomycosis on thumb of feet
I probably have onychomycosis (smelly and discolouration on the edge of the nail) and it is the 2nd time the nail broke off in the middle and a new nail emerged. Should i just apply Ketoconazole cream on the affected area or some oral anti fungal med is required too? If yes, which one would you recommend?
