Tratamento adequado e recobrimento após infecções nas unhas

In any case, the way to go is to remove the coating and seek medical advice. Once a correct diagnosis has been established, then a range of therapies are available which include avoidance of moisture, topical acetic acid/hypochlorite soaks (vinegar/bleach), antibiotics, and others.

 The doctor will be able to prescribe the most suitable one. Only apply a new coating once the treatment has been successful, the infection detained, and the “greenie” has grown out.
