Nail fungus is medically known as onychomycosis. It commonly affects toenails as compared to fingernails. Though not a crippling affliction, fungal infection in the nails does cause discomfort or even irritability in the affected person when it penetrates into the deeper tissues and damages the nails. The nails become discolored, thick, and brittle with a tendency to break easily. The nail may get distorted, get out of shape and may get detached from the nail bed. Pain and swelling around the nail may occur.
Homeopathy offers a natural treatment for nail fungus cases. Homeopathic medicines are ideal for providing a complete cure for infected nails as they tackle the root cause. Being non-intrusive and non-toxic, this natural treatment delivers good results in case of nail fungal infections. It works to manage signs and symptoms of nail fungus and also help to heal the damaged distorted nails. Both acute and chronic cases of nail fungus respond wonderfully to homeopathic treatment. Mainstream medicines use antifungal pills or antifungal creams applied externally on affected nails. They show temporary results and can have side effects. Homeopathic treatment, on the other hand, is very safe and can be used for a long period without any side effects and gives permanent results.
Homeopathic medicines work by boosting the self-healing forces in the body. This helps the body fight fungal infection naturally and get rid of it entirely. To get the best results, proper treatment as prescribed by the homeopathic doctor needs to be followed. This is because the prescription varies from case to case as per individual’s signs and symptoms.
Homeopathy does not use any external medicated creams, rather it uses oral medicines that work on the internal body’s disturbance to fight the infection. This is advantageous because external medication suppresses the problem but the internal medicines address the underlying cause and bring complete recovery. It also helps to decrease the chances of recurrent infection.
Homeopathic treatment promises a safe and successful solution for fungal infection with zero side-effects. Homeopathic medicines work in a very gentle, harmless way and ensure complete recovery naturally.

Hello Dr. Sharma,
I hope you are well today.
Thank you for your resource on homeopathy.
I suffer from migraine headaches, once tried a homeopathic combination with inconclusive results. I wondered if you had a suggestion.
I also wanted to ask about poly myalgia rheumatic a for my mother. She has been on steroid drugs for three years now. When they try to lower dosage, she suffers a relapse. Her initial onset came as overnight near paralysis from her neck down. She walked like an ogre, shuffling from side to side for momentum to move. It is characterized by widespread inflammation and muscle pain.
Thank you kindly for your thoughts.
Respectfully,
Beth Kashuba
