Could a nail fungus be the reason is my toenail plate not sticking to my toenail bed?
mafiosu asked:
I just noticed that on one of my big toes it looked lighter on the edge. When I investigated it further I saw I was able to pull the nail plate away from the nail bed rather easily, without pain. This has never happened before. Could it be a nail fungus starting? My husband has had a nail fungus for years. Can I get it from him?
I also have psorasis. I heard that it can cause nail problems too. Anyone else heard of this?

It sure can be fungus and, yes, it’s contagious!
Try this:
Get a bottle of iodine and a plastic drinking straw.
Cut the end of the straw so it’s like a little spoon.
Pour a tiny amount of iodine on the straw.
Gently lift your loose nail, and insert the straw-spoon as far as you comfortably can, then pour in the iodine.
Let it sit until it dries, then bandage it with gauze – no tight, waterproof bandaging.
Change twice a day. Do this a few days, maybe a week, and see if it’s getting better.
It will kill that ol’ fungus when nothing else will!
Good luck, kiddo!
