Thick Toenails Conditions and Treatments

Nail Condition โ€“ Thick Toenail

A thick toenail appears bulkier and sometimes more yellow than other nails on your feet. The affected nail(s) can look unsightly and/or cause pain or discomfort. If left untreated, thick toenails can worsen and cause pain.
There are many causes for thick toenails, but a fungal nail infection is the most common.

Causes for Thick Toenailsย 

There are quite a few reasons for toenails to thicken. But the most common cause is a fungal nail infection called onychomycosis.
Some people are more prone to foot or toe fungus than others. Some of the leading causes of a nail infection include:
