If you suspect that you have a fungal nail infection, you should see your doctor or dermatologist. Your doctor will do a test to tell if you do have nail fungus, and if you do, make a recommendation on treatment options. The earlier that an problem is detected, the easier it will be to treat. Even if you have symptoms that appear to indicate a fungal nail infection, it could be a number of similar conditions.
