Can Nail Fungus Be “Caught”

The short answer is yes, nail fungus is contagious. Nail fungus can spread from toe to toe, from toe to finger - and spread from person to person.

The organisms live where conditions are moist and damp and so one person can transfer the fungal infection to another if they share a shower cubicle or share footwear for example.

If you think you may have the fungal condition it is your responsiblility to seek treatment.
