Tinea unguium, or onychomycosis, is a fungal infection of the toenails and fingernails. Unlike athlete's foot, which occurs on the skin's surface, nail fungus lives in the nail bed and the nail plate. Other fungal infections include tinea pedis (athlete's foot), tinea cruris (jock itch), and tinea corporis (ringworm).
