Nail disorders are rarely disabling or even painful. But they are a nuisance. One of the most common problems is toenail fungus (medical name onychomysosis)-about 15% of people have it, including nearly half of those over 70. It is estimated that three to five percent of the population suffer from nail fungus. Most often, nail fungus appears in the toenails. This is because socks and shoes keep the toenails dark, war, and moist. This is a perfect place for the fungus to grow. Individuals who experience complications with their health, particularly those that affect the immunity, can experience other serious health complications as a result of nail fungus. However, if an individual is generally healthy, it will not result in further complications. For most people, it is an embarrassing condition, so they hide their nail fungus under nail polish or shoes, but for your information, if you did this, nail fungus never recover by its own and untreated nail fungus, it can spread to other nails and lead to painful infection problem.

UN Secretary-General Ban Ki- moon said here Wednesday that the relief operations remain complex, but "we are now seeing significant progress" in relief operations in the quake-devastated Haiti. "The aid operation is complex. But we are now seeing significant progress," Ban told reporters after he briefed the UN Security Council on his recent trip to Britain, Ethiopia and Cyprus, which took him to the international conference on Afghanistan, the Summit of the African Union and the talks with leaders of the divided Cyprus. "The situation is largely calm," he said. "Food distribution is growing smoother by the day, and we have now reached about one million people. Banks, markets and schools are beginning to re- open." On Wednesday morning Ban had a meeting with the UN special envoy to Haiti, former U.S. President Bill Clinton, who has agreed to take on an expanded leadership role in coordinating international aid effort. "In particular, he will provide strategic guidance in our work for Haiti's early recovery and long-term reconstruction, with a special emphasis on mobilizing international support and donor funding," he said.
