It is, if the utensils were not sterilized prior to being used on your hands. The advice these days is to have your own set of tools for the manicurist to use, or see that he/she has the proper sanitizing or sterilizing device(s) and is using them.Is it possible to receive an infection from a professional manicure?
yes you can get an inection. but you have every right to ask them to sterilize thier utencils before using them on you!
Report Abuse
YES! Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C and HIV! You can also get a severe infection (such as staph) at the site which might require antibiotics.
I would be more worried about Hepatitis C and HIV.
Test for these in a month!
Good luck!
Next time take your own manicure kit!
While it is possible, it may not be probable. Monitor the affected area for signs and symptoms of infection.
Possible and has happened many times.
Yes, and if you have any redness, swelling, or it doesn't heal quickly, see your family doctor..
You can also get an infection if the nail tech doesn't change gloves inbetween clients..
Always ask them to do this if you don't see they have done so..
if the salon did not sterilize their equipment thoroughly then you can catch an infection. it is very easy to catch a fungal nail infection but no need to worry as it is not too serious and can be treated easily
Yes. It happens more often now adays. If it starts to discolor, get it checked.
You probably won't get an infection, but you can get fungal infections when you get manicures.
Be sure to go to a place you trust.
