I recently started using Tolcylen for an infection on my nails.

I think its been like 2 weeks now for me, ans the nails no longer have yellowish scarring when dry, instead being whiteish in the parts that were once yellowish.

I’m guessing the whiteish scarring are previously infected areas that have been purged of fungus, and that once the nail grows out in a few months time there will be no more scar marks.

How did the progress go for you if you’ve used Tolcylen?

    Worked at a podiatry clinic for 3 years and we recommended tolcylen a lot. I’ve seen great results on patients who were very compliant with applications and didn’t have nails that were too far gone (think thicker than they are long). It’s important to note that you aren’t looking for any changes to the existing nail, just the new growth from the base of the nail. If you’re seeing at least 1mm of clear growth a month you’re good, do not stop until the entire nail has grown out healthy.
