Fungi and calluses are disorders that usually do not pose any danger or health risks, but are aesthetically unpleasant and, in the most serious cases, can even be uncomfortable to the point of preventing us from walking properly.
Onychomycosis is a nail infection caused by a fungus. The infection spreads under the nail, separating it from the flesh and causing the nail to crack or fall off entirely.
The factors that cause nail fungus are varied, ranging from exposure to humid and hot environments, the use of incorrect footwear or injuries to the nails.
Calluses , on the other hand, are caused by constant pressure or friction on the skin, which thickens. The main cause is the use of unsuitable or too tight footwear.
