Fungal Nails - Podiatrist in Whiting, NJ
Since fungal nails are usually more resistant and more difficult to treat than Athlete’s foot, topical or oral antifungal medications may be prescribed. Permanent nail removal is another possible form of treatment for fungal nails.
After a fungal nail infection has cleared up, you can take steps to prevent the infection from coming back.
Keeping the fungus under control will help prevent a fungal infection of the skin from reinfecting the nail. Before bed, thoroughly wash and dry your feet, and apply a non-prescription anti-fungal cream to the entire foot from the ankle down. Use the cream every night, then gradually apply it less often. Keep your feet dry. Dry feet are less likely to become infected. Apply powder to your dry feet after you take a shower or bath.
Other tips:
Don’t share nail clippers or nail files with others.
Don’t share shoes or socks with others.
Try not to injure your nail, such as by cutting it too short (trauma to the nail may lead to infections).
Wear dry cotton socks, and change them two or three times a day if necessary.
Wear dry shoes that allow air to circulate around your feet (tight, enclosed, moist shoes contribute to fungal toenail infections).
Wear shower sandals or shower shoes when you are at a public pool or shower.

Dr. Miracle’s, a leader in the ethnic personal care industry, continues to expand its distinctive line of hair care products with the introduction of its new Follicle Healer Collection. Consisting of 4 cutting-edge SKUs, this line will focus its new Energizing Complex formulation on giving continued life and vitality to the damaged, dormant scalp follicles by infusing the anti-oxidants and vitamins necessary to enhance the growth of strong and healthy hair.
Why Follicle Healer? The concerns of our consumers are our motivation. We’ve been listening to their requests for new products, with a milder more pleasant fragrance, and even more nourishing ingredients. Attention has also been paid to the creative independence that women of color today have declared — with renewed pride in their hairstyles as an official statement of their individual style and comfort. We’ve delivered, on both fronts, in the form of Follicle Healer, a line formulated to go beyond the scalp to penetrate the roots of all hair types, and priced to accommodate the everyday ‘budgetnista.’ With the introduction of the Energizing Complex, the collection combats the issues experienced by ethnic women by infusing the robust all-natural nutrients and vitamins that provide the healthy building blocks of strong hair. Each product contains key components which hydrate the scalp, prevent hair loss or breakage, and increase blood circulation to the scalp as well as collagen and elasticity of the strands. Inspired by you, Dr. Miracle’s proudly presents the Follicle Healer Collection:
Dr. Miracle’s Follicle Healer POMADE- Fortified with tea tree, almond, coconut, and safflower oil and shea butter, rebuilding and nourishing the follicle for optimum growth. ($4.99)
Dr. Miracle’s Follicle Healer CREME- Fortified with shea butter, vitamins A, E, C & B3 plus tea tree and jojoba oil for deep follicle conditioning producing super soft hair and a healthy scalp. ($3.99)
Dr. Miracle’s Follicle Healer HYDRATING OIL- Fortified with tea tree, jojoba, and castor oil. Also contains shea butter and soy protein to condition and strengthen the follicle. Leaves hair healthy look with super shine. ($4.99)
Dr. Miracle’s Follicle Healer DEEP CONDITIONING TREATMENT- Fortified with tea tree oil, aloe vera gel, soy protein and vitamins E, B3 and C which boosts follicle and scalp health leading to beautiful, soft, shiny hair. ($1.59)

What are blackheads?
Blackheads are little plugs that develop in the pores of the skin. They’re caused when the over active sebaceous ( oil producing ) glands in the skin become clogged with oil. This sebum then starts to harden in the pore. Since skin pores are open to the air, the top part of the toughened sebum or oil oxidizes, turning black. This black top of the oil plug is then forced nearer to the surface of skin by the oil hardening beneath it. This then causes the blackhead to be plain.
It is not obviously accepted why the sebaceous glands begin to become overactive. It is often noted that this situation starts at adolescence, and may stop at the end of puberty leading to the position that it is hormonally controlled. For some people this is not the case however , and they may continue to experience blackheads and whiteheads well past puberty and into adultness. Whiteheads are formed the same way as blackheads with the exception that the pore is closed and the oxidization does not occur.
Acne results from infection of the oil gland due to the blockage by the blackhead. Forestalling and removing blackheads helps to control acne.
Blackhead Removal
These are a bit of advice for removing blackheads :
- Keep the skin as clean and oil free as possible. Use natural or chemically prepared cleaners, acid solutions or masks to do this. Avoid harsh soaps which will irritate the skin or any creams that leave an oily finish.
- Use a light exfoliant to keep the dead cells off your skin and away from the pore openings.
- Avoid vicious squeezing or scraping at the blackhead. Excessive squeezing can damage the skin surround the pore and can actually increase the dimensions of the pore leading to more blackheads in the future.
- A warm compress of water applied to the area of the blackhead followed by a very gentle pressure can help in clearing the block from the pore.
- Commercial blackhead strips which are basically a tape like substance that is placed over the nose and then pulled off will remove some blackheads that are at the surface. Caution should be used with these products and it is important to read the directions absolutely before choosing to use the strips or not.
