Nail fungus is a common problem that increases
as you age. Diagnosis is made by a doctor with the help of
culture or microscopy and many people have nail fungus without
knowing it. The condition, which is contagious, starts in one
nail and gradually spreads to more nails. It is usually the nails
on the feet that are affected but fungus on fingernails can also
occur. Nail fungus thrives best in warm, damp environments.
Visiting places where people gather, such as swimming pools,
public showers and changing rooms, can involve a risk of
infection. Warm and tight shoes also help the fungus to thrive.
Nail fungus is, therefore, very common among sportsmen with as
many as 8 out of 10 being affected.

Nail Fungus Symptoms
The fungus grows slowly and often displays slight symptoms to
begin with. Nail fungus is characterised by the nails’
layers becoming ridged and brittle. The nail gradually becomes
discoloured, thickened and cracks or flakes off. The infected
nail can fall off if it is not treated. Nail fungus can, in
certain cases, be painful.
 
Nail Psoriasis
Psoriasis can occur on several parts of the body. Around 80 % of
all those with psoriasis also have nail problems (nail
psoriasis). The most common nail changes are discolouration and
small holes/pits in the nail. The nails can also thicken and
loosen from the nail bed. Occasionally, it can be difficult to
ascertain whether these nail changes are caused by psoriasis or
by, e.g., nail fungus.

 FAQ'S

What does Emtrix Do?

Emtrix is a topical treatment for nails affected by fungal nail infection or psoriasis. Emtrix smooths out the nail surface and binds moisture into the nail.

Fungus and bacteria attacks are countered through the nail’s microenvironment being altered, the nail surface strengthened and fungi that typically cause fungal nail infection being degraded.

How do I use Emtrix?

With Emtrix you can treat nails affected by fungal infection or psoriasis easily, without the need to file the nail. Apply Emtrix once daily to affected nails preferably in the evening just before bed time. Hold the point of the tube onto the nail. Press lightly on the tube and spread the solution wit the point. Cover each nail with a thin layer of the solution. It is important that the solution is also applied under the free edge of any affected nails. After application, the nail should be allowed to dry out for a few minutes.

How long must I use Emtrix in order to see results?

Emtrix gives you healthier looking nails after only 1 – 2 weeks but the total treatment period is determined by the degree of severity and the extent of the nail’s discolouration or damage. Normally at least 3 – 6 months’ of treatment is required to achieve a significant improvement, For best results, the treatment should be continued until a normal nail has grown out.

Can I treat with Emtrix without being certain that it is nail fungus?

Treatment with Emtrix does not require a doctor’s diagnosis and can be bought without prescription. Through its keratolytic and hydrating effect Emtrix improves the nail’s appearance even the discolouration or deformation when due to causes other than nail fungus, for example, psoriasis. If the nail is affected by a fungal infection, Emtrix changes the nail’s microenvironment so that the nail fungus no longer can thrive and degrades the cells of fungi.
