I have had a fungal infection on my big toe for almost 3 years. My primary physician wouldn't Rx oral antifungals. I have been trying OTC treatment but finally found a clinic near me to treat with laser. I had 15 minute of laser on one foot (left). It got hot but didn't hurt. The Dr. who preformed it said that the longer and more toes involved the harder it was to treat. Im also currently continuing to use a Rx topical called efinaconazole as advised by the doctor who treated my toe with the laser. I was warned it will take awhile to see results so I will keep posting my toe!

Thank you for sharing your review, I look forward to your updates. Aside from visual signs of toenail fungas, was there any other symptoms such as pain?

Not really for me. For some people it can be painful, especially as the nail bed distorts and lifts and can cause ingrown toenails. There have been times where it's ached but it's minimal really.

Thanks for your reply, I almost wonder if I have it on the corner of my toes, I think I am going to have it looked at soon.

That's a good idea. Mine started out really small and grew slowly. Its actually pretty common and much easier to treat sooner than later!

Thanks for sharing your experience with using laser therapy for fungal nail infections. We also offer this service and if is much safer than taking oral anti-fungal agents.

Dr. Brown could you recommend a Dr. in San Francisco or the Bay Area,
Thank-you!

I know this is an older post but I'm going thru the exact same thing but have yet to find a Dr. who can do the laser technique, I would luv to know the outcome!

Its been about a month since I had the laser. Its been good and I think I am seeing an improvement. I continue to trim the nail to make it look more normal. There is no pain in it currently. It was sensitive to the area where the nail was coming off that I trimmed, but other than that nothing.
