• Fungal toenail infections have become an
  increasing problem in older adults. Experts opine
  that those over 60 years are more likely to get a
  fungal toenail infection than those who are
  young. Several reasons, such as immunosuppressive
  drugs or chemotherapies, can lead to such
  conditions. Although different courses of
  treatment are available, not all medications and
  methods will be suitable for an elderly patient.
  But why are aged patients more prone to such
  infections? Lets find out the answer-
• Why Are Toenail Infections Common Among Elderly
  People?
• As one ages, blood circulation weakens in the
  distal extremities. This is the first probable
  cause of getting a fungal toenail infection. If
  such vulnerable patients frequently visit public
  pools, locker rooms or washrooms, they can
  quickly get infected. Their imbalanced immune
  system is also to be blamed.

These patients also take prescribed
immunosuppressive drugs for nonmalignant diseases
or undergo chemotherapy that leads to the
infection. Similarly, diabetes is a
life-threatening peril that can lead to such
infections. The truth is a common
infection-causing source poses a high risk for
elderly patients since they are already affected
by various health conditions.

• What Are The Risks Of Toenail Infections In The
  Aged?
• Fungal toenail infection is not life-threatening.
  But in an older patient, it can give rise to
  various complications if not treated early. Nail
  infections can cause extreme discomfort and pain,
  lessening their mobility. Patients in the older
  age group suffer from various lifestyle diseases
  like high blood sugar or blood pressure.
• Fungal toenail infection treatment often becomes
  ineffective for those with a debilitated immune
  system. Diabetes also slows down the healing
  process, or the infection becomes recurring.
  Other medications can also aggravate the
  infection. Therefore, people in the older age
  group should seek immediate consultation from
  expert podiatrists.
