The present invention relates to a nail athlete's foot athlete's foot treatment device, and more particularly, to a nail athlete's foot athlete's foot treatment device that can be easily used while showing an excellent effect in treating nail infection and toenail infection caused by athlete's foot fungus.

In general, diseases such as nails and toenail fungi cause serious problems on the skin, and such nails or toenail fungi are recognized as pains that are felt when pressure is applied to peripheral areas as well as discoloration under the nails and toenails.

These diseases not only damage nails or toenails, but also various fungi, which are classified as white superficial fungi, cause these diseases.

Nail or toenail infections are a common occurrence and, in severe cases, can be painful or not good enough to affect a patient's quality of life.

Fungi associated with nail or toenail infections usually cause athlete's foot (Athlete's foot, tinea pedis, etc.) that spreads from the toe crack to the nail.

Fungal infections of nails or toenails are known as Onychomycosis, and also known as Tinea unguium, Dermatophytic onychomycosis or Ringworm.

Here, mild mild mycosis can be limited simply to white spots or dents on the surface of nails or toenails, but in more advanced diseases the symptoms include nail bed hyperkeratosis, nail plate thickening, Discoloration and early dissection.
