Lifting Nails
I have taken my fifth taxol treatment as of Friday. I noticed about two weeks ago that clear fluid was coming from under my toe nails. It's now yellow, slight odor and the same thing is starting with my fingernails. Has this happened too anyone else? Will I be losing my finger and toe nails? I plan to make an appointment ASAP to get this checked out
The same thing happened to me with my big toe nail. It felt sore to pressure at first, then I noticed a clear fluid coming out, which seemed to release the pressure. Slowly my big toe nail is turning black, but does not hurt anymore. I had bad neuropathy of my feet, so my oncologist stopped my taxol treatments at 9.
Good luck.
Same happened to me. I never actually lost my nails but they lifted from the nail beds. I pushed Neosporin down into them and kept band aids around them. You should see the doc though.
This has happened to my fingernails and the odor is terrible. I got an antibiotic from my regular doctor but that doesn't work. I find that keeping them clean with peroxide does help some.
Hi. Im soaking my feet in white vinegar for 15 minutes every night. Its suppose to kill the infection, but please tell your Dr.. Feel better.
Ask your doc to adjust your taxol. When I started getting numbness in my toes, my oncologist adjusted the dosage.
