My point is more that it's a cosmetic problem if you like to show off your feet (could be more serious for the severely immunosuppressed, of course), yet the advertising implies that because it's an infection (I prefer to call it an infestation since it's superficial, and perhaps b/c I've had a problem with one horse-stepped-upon-and-susequently-ripped-off-toenail!), *it needs to be treated with an expensive and potentially harmful* drug. It doesn't. But unless you do your homework, you'd agree with that worried lady in the ad who mutters "Infection...?"
It may be a cosmetic problem, but its also a real pain. I sometimes have problems with my *toes* hurting because the nails are too thick, and filing them down is tedious and time consuming (that said, I did get a Dremel mototool for Xmas, so that might help out...as long as I don't cut my toes off!). I've considered taking the "curative" to get rid of it, though with this knowledge I'd reconsider. But really, what other type of cure is available? The creams are not nearly as effective, and can't do anything with the infestation under the nail...
