Fungus – series of single cells connected in a whole through thin outer tubes. Whether the fungus will develop or fibrous mesh, its characteristics and behavior do not differ from that of unicellular bacteria.
The fungus is the most common and persistent causes of infections. The most frequent object of their attack are the skin, scalp, head (dandruff), upper and lower limbs and claws on them and genitals of men and women. Like bacteria, under the influence and pressure of antibiotics, fungus often mutate and become resistant to the action of antibiotics.
Resistance of the fungus to antibiotics is growing steadily and this requires to be constantly creating new antibiotics. It is clear that when an antibiotic is to create a resistance to a group of bacteria or fungi, it becomes unnecessary. Armaks However, this unusual property is not to create resistance among microorganisms. This is due to its mechanism of action and lack of opportunities and prerequisites for the development of such resistance.
According to medical statistics every fifth person suffers from a fungal disease of the hands or feet. Mycosis is one of those difficult to treatment diseases.
Under the impact of the fungus, skin goes red,cracks, the patient feels a strong itching. When it is nail fungus, the nails go dark, thicken and yellow. Most recently systemic anti fungal creams emerged, which successfully fight the disease. Doctors usually prescribe a comprehensive treatment – cream in combination with tablets or nail polish. But for successful treatment, which is quite long, people must follow certain rules.
1. None of prescribed medications will help if you make a specific treatment for shoes, socks and even the bathtub.
The fungus are infectious and can be contaminated by ourselves. For disinfection of the shoes we need solution with at least 20% formalin.
Soak it with a cloth and rub the inside surface of your shoes which you are going to wear during the treatment. Then wrap them in cellophane and leave them for an hour. This procedure must be performed every few days before and at the end of treatment.
For other shoes we will need a paper bag or envelope and a small jar. Pour the formalin in the jar, place it on the bottom of the bag, arrange the shoes around it and tie the package. After 4 hours you can safely use the shoes.
2. The socks should be disinfected also.
For this purpose they must be carefully ironed from their outer and inner side. Thin silk stockings and socks can be soaked in a solution of vinegar and then rinse.
3. Carefully clean the bathtub with vinegar.
After bathing apply the surface of the bathtub with vinegar and after a while wash it with water. This disinfection is required after each use of the bathtub.
4. Nail Care.
Every time before nail treatment several layers of the contaminated surfaces has to removed.
You need to know that the tissue of the infected nail is changing very slowly with a healthy one - toenails are treated for about half a year, but they will be absolutely healthy only after 10-12 months.
