If the nail is infected, you will need appropriate ointments and/or oral tablets to get rid of the infection. It will depend on whether it is a bacterial or a fungal infection. If the infection progresses too far and damages the nailbed completely, further development of the nail will be a problem. So you can can have online consult as early as possible so that you can stop the infection before it progresses any further.

Your doctor will first place cloth adhesive tape on the normal skin around the infected nail. A urea ointment is then put directly on the nail surface and covered with plastic and tape.
