Official Answer (Answer Time: January 13, 2012, 16:47:44): Hello, the cause of nail fungus is indeed related to sharing shoes. In many families, slippers are shared among members, and even when guests come over, they are given slippers that have been worn multiple times by the hosts. This practice can easily lead to the transmission of nail fungus causes, as the slippers used for changing at the door are repeatedly used by many people. Even if the host occasionally washes them, it does not effectively prevent the spread. Therefore, it is recommended that everyone try to use disposable slippers or wear shoe covers. Trying on shoes can also easily lead to the occurrence of nail fungus causes, which is an important reason often overlooked. Since most shoe stores allow customers to repeatedly try on shoes without concern. In summer, many women like to try on shoes barefoot, leading to a high incidence of nail fungus during this season. Prevention is key in dealing with nail fungus. Once symptoms of nail fungus are detected, topical antifungal agents with herbal ingredients can be used to eliminate it.
