Onychomycosis is a fungal infection that occurs in the fingernails and toenails that can lead to discomfort, chronic pain and disfigurement. Proximal subungual, white superficial and distal subungual are some of the types of onychomycosis. It is a common nail infection in patients with athlete’s foot and is caused by various organisms, such as dermatophytes, yeasts and non-dermatophyte molds. Onychomycosis is characterized by symptoms, including distortion in the shape of nails, foul smell, whitish to yellow-brown discoloration and brittle, ragged and crumbly texture of the nails. It is usually diagnosed through potassium, oxygen and hydrogen (KOH) examination, culture and histopathological examinations of nail clippings and nail biopsies and is treated through laser therapy, drugs and photodynamic therapies.

Onychomycosis Treatment Market Trends:

The increasing prevalence of chronic medical ailments, such as onychomycosis, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), diabetes and peripheral artery disease (PAD), is one of the key factors driving the growth of the market. Moreover, the rising geriatric population, which is highly prone to circulatory disorders and weakened immune system, is providing a thrust to the market growth. Onychomycosis is also highly prevalent among millennials and adults due to the increased exposure to public swimming pools and utilization of tight, contaminated or soiled clothes, shoes and socks. Additionally, the development of water-soluble antifungal treatment solutions that can be administered orally is providing a thrust to the market growth. They aid in preventing secondary bacterial infections and prevent the growth of fungus. Other factors, including the widespread utilization of topical nail lacquers and ointments to maintain nail hygiene, along with the significant improvements in the healthcare infrastructure, are anticipated to drive the market toward growth.
