Artificial Nails and Nail Fungus
Artificial nails are here to stay. These days many women wear them. The reason women wear artificial nails is to cover their natural toes nails and to make them more beautiful. But, women have been known to use artificial nails to cover up nail fungus infection hence resulting in a coined word "artificial nail fungus". Unfortunately, this practice worsens the bail fungus problem. Nail fungus grows in environment with lot of moisture and dark. Now when you apply these artificial nails to the already infected toe nails, it creates a favorable environment that is both dark and has a lot of moisture.
Most Fungal nail infections are on the toe nails than among the finger nails. However any finger nails that isn't natural but attached to the real finger nail is a huge contributor to the spread of the fungal infection. It is natural inclination to hide it out of sight because of the stares you get on your fingers or toe nails. But keep in mind that when you hide the nails under artificial nails, you are creating a more enabling environment that will foster the faster growth and spread of the fungus. So, while it is hidden away, no one else of course sees the nails while it keeps getting destroyed. If this gets too extreme, you may not even be able to hide it any longer as the nail becomes so bad that it is virtually impossible to apply the artificial nails. This is the reason it is better for you to pinch out the "monster" in the bud.
The spread of the fungus nail infection is more common among the women than men because of the booming beauty industry. It is common practice that women these days visit nail shops where certified nail experts help apply the artificial nails they want.
