The many treatments that are
available are of a topical nature.
That is they must be applied to the external area of the foot,
on the infected area. As these topical treatments are of a
chemical nature they can only treat the area they have been
applied to and only for that particular period of time.
This means that with a topical
treatment you will need to apply
the medicine to the infected area as you have been instructed.
Should you miss even one application dose, then the length of
time that it will take to remove the infection will be even
longer. The reason for this is that as the treatment begins to
work your body displaces the now rejected yet still infectious,
foot fungus.
Now even though a layer of infectious
foot fungus has been
taken away from your body there is yet another infected layer
of
foot fungus that is still attached to the body. To remove this
layer you will need to apply the topical treatment at the right
time. As this cycle of continued topical treatment begins to
take effect healthy skin can be seen.
Now if you decide that with the
appearance of this healthy skin
that you are cured of your foot fungus and you stop the
treatment prematurely the remaining infected fungus will jump
to
the new and healthy skin. Since this new skin layer does not
have any immunity against the foot fungus your problems will
start all over again. |
