Is discolouration under toenail tips nail fungus?

Masontown

My bf has blackish discolouration under his toenails however alone at the tips and the nails are not thickened. The discolouration is adamantine to scrub outside, according to it's stained so it's not dirt or anything according to that, however it does eventually come off however comes back in approximately 3-5 days. He's been using Vick's on his nails for approximately a month and his nail bed turned purplish and every hardly any days a very babyish size of blackish dirt looking stuff comes up from the cuticles and sides of the nails and it adamantine to remove. The Vick's treatment seems to be working however I'm concerned that since he self diagnosed himself and that the problem my not be nail fungus however some other affectionate of medical problem. Has anyone ever own nail fungus without nail thickening and aloof discolouration under the tips of the nails??

It sounds according to the beginnings of nail fungus. Personally, I've tried a abundance of altered stuff over the years. I had dealt with the combo nail fungus and athletes foot for nearly 20 years. One "free of charge" thing that did aid a abundance was vinegar. It didn't aid even with the nail fungus however it completely stopped the athlete's foot that I was too suffering from. For the fungus I tried a abundance of altered things, including over the counter treatments, vinegar, bleach, tea tree oil, vicks and lavender oil. Some of them did constitute a babyish aberration however none of them completely killed the fungus. I too tried lamisil which worked for a while then after a couple of months I had a relapse of the nail fungus. The scary thing with the lamisil is the possible health issues you can face as a result of using it, the doctor had me take a test to constitute sure my liver wasn't prone to problems before he'd accord me the lamisil... gulp! In the borderline what finally constant my loong term problem with nail fungus was Zeta Free. I think what too helped is that I fabricated it a thing of my daily ritual to use it. Another thing that I did that probably helped was throw outside my aged shoes. I own heard that the fungus can alive in your shoes and return after treatment. So to avoid a relapse I fabricated sure to amuse fresh shoes and throw outside the aged ones. Ace of Luck! I added a link in the source box to a good article that has a some pretty absorbing information on toenail fungus and the altered treatments you can use, provided you wanna test it outside:
