Prevent the growth of bacteria or fungus under your nails by washing them frequently during the day. Lather them with a mild hand soap and rinse them thoroughly. Be sure to dry them thoroughly after they get wet. Small shoes will put more pressure on your toenails and make it more likely to cause trauma. Prolonged trauma on your nails will lead to developing onycholysis. Wet feet can cause toe fungus, which may result in onycholysis. Wear waterproof shoes or boots if you are walking or exercising in wet conditions. Remove sweaty socks and shoes right after exercising to prevent the growth of bacteria. Let your shoes air-dry thoroughly if they get wet. If you exercise frequently, consider buying multiple pairs of athletic shoes to avoid wearing wet or damp footwear. Both prolonged exposure to chemicals and frequent submersion in water can cause onycholysis. Protect your hands by wearing rubber gloves while cleaning the house, washing dishes, or performing similar tasks. Gloves will also protect long nails from injury when performing household chores. It is easier for moisture and bacteria to build up under long nails, creating a greater risk of onycholysis. To prevent this condition, trim your nails regularly to keep them short and neat. Use clean nail clippers to cut your nails and an emery board to smooth the edges. Shorter nails will also be less prone to injury or trauma.
