Causation
The causative pathogens of onychomycosis [def: nail fungus causing thickened, brittle, crumbly or ragged nails] include dermatophytes [def: fungi that require keratin for growth. These fungi can cause superficial infections of the skin, hair & nails], Candida [def: a yeast that is the most common cause of fungal infections], and nondermatophytic molds [def: fungi with known habitats mostly in soil & decaying plant debris]. Dermatophytes are the fungi most commonly responsible for onychomycosis in the temperate western countries; while Candida and nondermatophytic molds are more frequently involved in the tropics and subtropics with a hot and humid climate.
