Abstract
Background: A frequent fungal infection of the nails that is considered a serious public health concern is onychomycosis. Nearly half of all nail disorders are caused by fungi, and these infections can be caused by dermatophytes, non-dermatophytic moulds, or yeasts that affect the nail bed, nail plate, or nail matrix (onychomycosis). Furthermore, treating fungal nail infections typically takes a long time and has a high chance of recurrence.
