• Use a clean nail file to keep nails shaped and free from snags.
• We recommend sanitising nail instruments after use on a target nail. This is easily achieved by wiping a drop of ClearZal® BAC Nail Solution or spraying ClearZal® Foot Sanitiser over the surface of the nail instrument.
• Do not share or use any other person’s nail file or instrument without sanitising it prior to use.
• If you have an ingrown toenail we suggest that you seek medical advice.

• Always read the instructions carefully; including any warnings for use.
• Keep caps and lids on products when not in use and use the product after opening within the recommended time frame.

• If you haven’t paid attention to your toenails and their health for some time now, then it’s time you do. Good nail care is crucial to prevent fungus infections, painful ingrown, and skin infections. Therefore, here are tips to help you grow healthy toenails:
• 1. Cleanse Daily Cleansing your feet once per day with mild soap will help remove fungus and bromodosis. Consider using warm water for this, as it can help stimulate circulation to your feet and toes. In turn, it will promote better and healthier toenail growth. Scrub your toenails with a foot brush while you’re bathing and dry each foot thoroughly, especially the areas between the toes.
  2. Moisturize Your Feet Keep your toenails in excellent shape by moisturizing them on a daily basis. Regular lotion works best, and it can keep the skin around the toenails soft and healthy. You can use nail serums made of essential oils as well to keep them from becoming dry, cracked, or brittle.
  3. Trim Frequently Don’t let your toenails get too long. Regular inspection and trimming are important. Also, know how to trim your toenails properly—straight across, and never in a curved shape. Straight-across trims will prevent ingrown toenails and bacterial infections. You shouldn’t cut your toenails too short as well. Having a slight bit of nail at the end can protect your toes from possible trauma.
  4. File Your Nails Use a nail file to smooth out the rigid edges of your toenails. When you do this, it can help prevent hangnails, rips, and tears to the nail.
  5. Have the Right Diet Your nails on your toes and fingers are made from a protein called keratin. Therefore, you can help your body produce healthy amounts of protein by eating a balanced diet. You can also take vitamins or supplements that support healthy nail growth.
  6. Wear Proper Socks and Shoes It is essential to wear the right shoes and socks that fit you well. When socks are too tight, they can restrict blood flow circulation, and your nails need to grow strong. On the other hand, shoes that don’t fit properly can lead to black toenails, blisters, and ingrown.
  7. Get a Massage Nothing beats a good foot massage every now and then, and you’ll be pleased to know that this is good for the nails. Massages can keep the circulation in your feet and toes strong. When there’s good blood flow, it will give your nails the proper blood supply that will help them maintain a healthy light pink color.

• Your toenails require some TLC as well, like the ones your fingernails get. Just because they’re on your feet doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be cared for well. Pink and healthy toenails are attractive, which is why you need to ensure you invest in good toenail care. Use these tips to support better toenail growth and keep them healthier.
• Give your toenails the care that it deserves! After all, you don’t want any problems with them, otherwise, you could get into a lot of pain and discomfort.

Everything You Need to Know About Fungal Nail Infections

It’s typical for adults to experience a wide range of illnesses and medical complications. This is because their body becomes more prone to contaminants in the environment, together with their less-than-optimal immune systems.

Body complications such as cracked and discoloured toenails can be the beginnings of fungal infection. Although it may seem like a simple condition, it can lead to amputations if left untreated. It’s important to know how to identify its symptoms and how to treat them.

Identifying fungal infection’s sources

When your toes and feet are exposed to damp and warm areas, infections can spread and linger around them. These circumstances are likely if you have:

• Gone to a swimming pool
• Walked around locker rooms or moist areas
• Worn sweaty sneakers or socks
• Injured your toenails
• Side effects of Rx Medications

Although you may not experience any symptoms at first, they may develop over time. Fungal infection presents itself through the discoloration of your toenail into green, white, or brown. Your toenail can also become thicker or thinner, causing it to be brittle, broken, or jagged. Sensing pain or foul odor from your toes can also be a sign of growing fungal contaminants.

Misdiagnosing fungal infection with other diseases

The symptoms of fungal nail infections are discoloration on your toenail, change in shape, a foul odor, or pain on your toe. Unfortunately, many people can confuse fungal nail infections with other diseases due to these symptoms.

Ingrown toenails inflict pain to your toe as it grows inward to your skin. On the other hand, infections from bacteria can also hurt your toe and cause swelling around your nail. It’s best to contact your physician if you’re not sure about your condition to receive the right treatment.

A podiatrist, or foot doctor, is the best person to diagnose your condition. Since fungal nail infection can worsen over time, immediate treatment is vital, especially if you have type 2 diabetes. The testing for your condition can be as simple as looking at the color of your nails. However, your doctor may require a sample of your nail clippings to check the fungus inside them.

Preventing fungal nail infections

The best way to prevent fungal nail infections is to extend your hygiene routine. Keeping your hands and feet clean and dry will avoid attracting any moisture for fungi to thrive. Additionally, keeping your nails trimmed will prevent them from going inside your cuticles. Remember to cut your toenails straight across when you do this.

Besides caring for your feet, you should also be cautious of your socks and footwear. When going into locker rooms or pool decks, make sure that you’re wearing slippers or sneakers to avoid contact from the ground. Don’t forget to change your socks and shoes after you get sweaty feet. If you’re prone to sweating, keep an extra pair of socks and sneakers to swap them out during the day while you’re outside.
