Hello,
Laser treatment is thought to treat a fungal nail infection that's particularly stubborn. The laser emits high doses of light energy, which are used to destroy the fungus. However, there's currently little evidence to show that laser treatment provides a long-term cure, as most studies only follow patients up for a period of three months.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
