What Causes Yellow Toe Nails

Yellow toenails are a product of several different conditions and are usually characterized by brittle, crumbled, or thick toenails that are yellowish in color. Yellow toenails,can be prevented with proper knowledge and adherence to the appropriate treatments available.

In some cases, yellow toenails are caused by a genetic disorder more commonly known as yellow toenail syndrome, however the majority of cases are caused by toenail fungus.

Feet and toenail beds are exposed to many germs, fungus, and bacteria, even more so if you frequently use closed-toe footwear. Fungi thrive in warm, dark, and moist places such as shoes and socks. When a toenail’s surface is damaged, the toenail bed is more vulnerable to infection by toenail fungus in the moist and dark environments inside of closed-toe shoes and sweaty socks.

Upon infection, fungi present in shoes, socks and stockings use the toenail bed as a breeding ground for the toenail fungus, also known as "onychomycosis" in medical terms.

Moreover, if you have a very active lifestyle, and you are frequently engaged in sports such as running, tennis, and basketball, your toenails tend to become more vulnerable to breakage. When your toenails break, fungi and other bacteria can easily contaminate your toes, causing your toenails to become brittle, thicker, and eventually discolored (turning your toenails to turn yellowish or greenish, in some cases).

Toenail fungi are contagious and can also be passed from person to person through physical contact. For example, if you go swimming and a person in the pool has the toenail fungus "onychomycosis", there is a possibility that your toenails can become contaminated with the same fungus.
