I'm dealing with a nail issue and it's actually gotten worse after taking fluconazole and glevo. I've also heard about something called oxychomycosui disease and I'm kind of worried if it might be related. Could you help me understand what's going on and what I should do next?

Treatment for nail issues and onychomycosis disease can include the use of antifungal medications. In this case, since the nail issue worsened after fluconazole and levofloxacin (Glevo), it is important to consider alternative antifungal medications. Additionally, topical antifungal medications like Ciclopirox (brand name Penlac) nail lacquer can be applied daily. It is important to continue treatment consistently as prescribed by your healthcare provider to see improvement in the nail condition.
