[|Human|] Hello,I have a question about nail fungus. Sorry if this is gross. My grandmother has fungus on her nails and she asked me to paint her nails. I didnt want to use the nail polish bottle and do her nails and keep dipping it in, spreading the fungus in the nail polish bottle. Instead, I poured out some nail polish into a cup and then used the nail polish brush to paint her nails. I then washed off the brush with soap and water and put it back into the nail polish bottle. Does washing with soap and water get rid of the fungus, i.e. is the bottle of nail polish that I put the washed brush into safe to use or should I throw it away?Thanks!
[|AI|]  Thanks for contacting Chat Doctor with your medical concerns. You are concerned about contracting hail fungus after using a brush on you grandmother. Fungus can be spread by personal items like nail clippers and towels and possibly brushes. To prevent transmitting to you, I would recommend replacing your nail polish. Next time have a separate nail polish and brush for your grandmother. Hope this answers your question. Please contact us again with your medical questions.
