The application is described in the Patient Guide accurately and sounds worse than it is. We bathed in the evening the gestrafte feet and thoroughly dried. The towels used so I immediately withdrawn from circulation to avoid further infections. The ointment is applied, it stays exactly where you want them. It is of some solid consistency. One should not too much ointment, depending on the toe, we never took more than 1 cm ointment, because otherwise leaking from under the pavement and possibly konterminiert the adhesive surfaces of the patch. Plaster on it, half is enough, stick to fresh and stockings. The old once in the laundry. The patch keeps 24 hours, and protects the injured nail a little. From now on we have every night deducted the pavement again - because it is short times to clench my teeth, ointment residues are removed in a foot bath and then very carefully (a very practical part) removed with the spatula the softened nail parts. My daughter felt this process as though unpleasant, but not painful, I carried only very slight pressure. The whole treatment went painless because the patch also contrary to expectations not completely caked on nail stuck. Depending on the progress of the infection is also the amount of material to be removed. We started at an early stage with the treatment and had very little, but still visible scrape softened tissue. After about 1 week I got then barely tissue from the remaining and looked as if it would be reasonably healthy. Has also long läst own side effects such as itching and burning had disappeared. Daily treatment with foot bath maybe took 20 minutes. We continued the treatment for safety completely another week gone and then went to to just normal lotion with the Canesten Extra. And I have the only ointment applied thinly and gently massaged. 6 weeks discipline and knock on wood, since the rest is. The nail has grown, looked for weeks battered, but now remembers nothing of the unpleasant fungus.
Conclusion: The application is easy and user friendly and you can actually make a mistake. Also, a big plus that they painlessly (in the early stages at least) expires and disappears after the first application of ointment itching and burning. The patches impede easily in the shoe, you should not just wear very narrow shoes at this time, but that one should never, otherwise falls outside nothing on. Canesten is recommended to fight a lot of common species of fungi, yeasts and even athlete's foot at the mouth or behind the ears.
The nail set is highly recommended for self-medication, I recommend it at an early stage to use. According patient guide the set is designed for a mild to moderate fungal infection: less than 2/3 of the nail and a maximum of three nails are affected. Not to experiment with very advanced disease, please, but definitely consult the doctor.
