Nail Dermatologists in Baltimore, Maryland
Your nails are windows into your body and its health. They have their own signs and symptoms which may be a clue to other medical conditions. They can alert you to potential health problems such as liver and kidney diseases, anemia, diabetes, and more. Dr. Andrew Marek is a leading board-certified nail dermatologist and can help treat common nail conditions and bring back your healthy nails.
Common Types of Nail Conditions We Treat
Nail conditions can indicate signs of infection, inflammation, and even deformity. These common nail conditions can be identified by the color, shape, texture, or thickness of the fingernails or toenails. Just like the skin, the fingernails tell a lot about your health and could require medical attention.
Most nail conditions are preventable or treatable. Here are a few of the most common nail problems:
- Fungal nail infection (onychomycosis)
- Lichen planus of the nails
- Paronychia
- Psoriasis of the nails
Laser Treatment for Fungal Toenails
Nail fungus is extremely common but not always easy to treat. With the right combination of laser treatments and medications, our Baltimore nail dermatology team will help you find the relief you are seeking.
Toenail fungus is caused by bacteria or naturally occurring fungus from the environment that has established a presence underneath your nail. The symptoms of fungal nails include:
- Discoloration of the nail, including white patches or yellowish streaks
- Thickening of the nails
- Brittle or flaking nails
- Darkening of the skin below the nails
- Separation of the nail from the nail bed, which typically only occurs in severe cases.
The Laser Treatment for fungal toenails at Belcara Health is a new, safe therapy for toenail fungus removal. It is a specialized medical laser used to kill the pathogens involved in infections. Since no damage is done to the surrounding skin, the toe and adjacent skin are unaffected. Your nails will regrow as healthy, clear, and attractive nails. The treatment is painless, with no risks or side effects.
