[|Human|] My big toe was getting very red, pus like forming under nail and hurting....even during the night sometimes.  Went to food doctor he cut off some of the name and sent it off.  Come back Hyperkeratosis and PAS positive for fungal hyphae spores.  He had me to take Lamisil for 30 days and use Formula 3 on nail.Still getting red and very sensitive.  So I went back to him.  He cut back more nail and done a swab like test on the area under where he cut off nail.  It come back few WBCs and few gram positive cocci.  Prescribed me gentamicin ointment.Can you tell me if I am a contagious?  What is really going on?  Is there some underline problem here that I should be aware and cautious about?  Just concerned for my granddaughters and husband.  Thanks in advance for any information you can give me on this.
[|AI|]  Hi, thanks for using Chat Doctor Fungal infections of the toenails (Tina ununium) are normally treated by oral antifungals for at least 12 weeks. You would have needed another 8 weeks of the Tamil for the fungi to be appropriately treated. You need to consider either restarting the oral Tamil (would need to restart from beginning to 12 weeks) or use another oral antifungal agent. Another choice is soprano- also requires a 3-month course when dealing with toenails hope this helps
