How do you cure toenail fungus?

My 13-year-old son has toenail fungus. How do you cure toenail fungus? Should I take him to a doctor?

The best treatment will be a topical medication prescribed by a physician. There are also medications to take by mouth.
Yes, maybe a foot doctor.
You can put antifungal cream such as lamasil or lotrimin but when it is in the nails or hair you will need oral meds and they need to be prescribed by a Doctor.
