Home Toenail Fungus Treatments
Did you know you can make your own home toenail fungus treatments from ingredients you can get at any grocery store? Here are the ingredients you need for your shopping list.
Toenail Fungus Listerine Treatment
An effective home remedy for treating toenail fungus is treating it with Listerine. It is powerful antiseptic and can be applied by soaking your feet in it for about 15 minutes. This fungus that is living on and under your toenails will not be able to survive. But you must continue doing this for several months because this fungus is stubborn and will return.
Apple Cider Vinegar Toe Fungus Treatment
Another effective home remedy is soaking your toenails for about half an hour in a tub containing a 50-50 mixture of warm water and natural apple cider vinegar. The acidic properties of the vinegar changes the PH levels which help to kill the infection. Just make sure with both the Listerine treatment as well as the apple cider vinegar treatment, you dry your toes and feet thoroughly.
Tea Tree Oil Toenail Fungus Treatment
Tea tree oil also helps in removing fungus. Tea trees are known for their resistance to common fungal infections and this oil can also work to help eliminate your toenail fungus. You can either apply the tea tree oil topically daily to your toenails or you can mix it with olive oil. Try both ways to see what works best for you.
Epsom Salt Soaks
Epsom salt is another good home remedy for treating toenail fungus. Just put Epsom salt into a tub with lukewarm water, then soak your toenails for about 15-20 minutes once a day. Just remember that after soaking, dry your toenails thoroughly and keep them dry all the time. You may want to use your hairdryer and then apply disinfectant powder. The disinfectant powder will absorb any moisture which makes the fungus is very less likely to grow.
Whatever home toenail fungus remedy you use, understand that you need to continually keep treating your toenail fungus or it will come back.
