¿Qué es la onicomicosis blanca superficial y cuáles son sus causas?
White Superficial Onychomycosis, often abbreviated to ‘WSO’, is a condition where white spots are seen on the superficial layer of the nail plate; unlike Leukonychia though, these white spots can be filed off and are as a result of fungal infection rather than any matrix dystrophy. The condition is commonly caused by a fungal species from the Trichophyton family and is highly infectious.
¿A quién afecta?
Cualquiera.
¿Cómo pueden ayudar los técnicos de uñas?
The underlying fungal disease should be treated by a doctor, who will apply a topical anti-fungal agent.
It is highly infectious so any tools, surfaces or objects that have come in contact with the infected nail will need to be disinfected.
