[|AI|]  Good evening & Welcome to Chat Doctor. Incomplete data like age, gender, any associated medical problem like diabetes, duration of antifungal (Terminating) treatment?? To be effective, Terminating should be taken for 6 to 12 weeks. The result of successful treatment will be seen until the nail grows back completely. It may take 4 months or longer to eliminate an infection. If you did not notice any response even after 4 months, it may be due to ineffective treatment or resistance to Terminating. In that case other medications like Itraconazole tablet or antifungal nail polish containing Ciclopirox would be more effective. Besides, your nail should be trimmed properly this helps reduce pain by reducing pressure and the Chat Doctor. Any underlying cause like diabetes should be controlled with the medications. Hope the suggestions given would be useful.
