\u00bfQu\u00e9 es la cloroniquia y cu\u00e1les son sus causas?<\/h3>\n

Chloronychia, also known as ‘greenies’ or ‘green nail syndrome’, is a condition where green, greenish-yellow or greenish-brown spots appear on the fingernails. This is usually due to water being trapped between the natural nail and artificial nail enhancements, or when nail antiseptics are ignored during the preparation step of the sculpting services in salons.<\/p>\n

While many nail professionals still consider the condition as a mold or onychomycosis, the infection is caused by bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa. This is not a fungal infection and so topical antifungals will not work. The condition releases bacterial spores which can infect nail plates with pyocyanin, causing the discolouring. The condition can be extremely dangerous when the infection goes beyond the nail plate and infects the soft tissues, especially in immunocompromised people.<\/p>\n

\u00bfA qui\u00e9n afecta?<\/h3>\n

Cualquier persona, especialmente los clientes de salones donde se ignora el uso de antis\u00e9pticos. Puede aparecer en cualquier parte de la l\u00e1mina ungueal.<\/p>\n

If the condition remains untreated, the infection can spread to surrounding soft tissue and cause severe bacterial inflammation. It can be easily treated and removed while it is within the nail plate. If the condition appears in soft tissue around the nail plate then the client should seek medical advice.<\/p>\n

Nail technicians should remove all artificial enhancements right away and allow the discolouration to grow out. Recent research has shown that secondary infections can occur due to the exposure of proteins within the nail plate. Therefore reapplication of coatings should be avoided.<\/p>\n

If the client needs to attend a wedding or important\u00a0 function, obviously with green nails it’s hard to do and we understand in real life that people just hate green nails, then normal nail polish may be used under 3 conditions:<\/p>\n

1. Its a normal nail polish and can be removed with normal nail polish remover (without filing the natural nail, without filing it off and without using long soak-off periods).
2.\u00a0It’s removed after the event – and care as advised is continued.\u00a0
3. El cliente entiende que cubrir una infecci\u00f3n de este tipo puede empeorarla. Cuidado si este no es el caso. Tu cliente podr\u00eda demandarte.<\/p>\n

It has long been thought that exposure to oxygen once the coating has been removed will kill the bacteria. Recent research has shown this to be untrue. Some infections thrive in oxygen. Another reason why coatings (other than traditional nail polish) must be avoided until the infection has grown out..<\/p>\n
