Question: Toe nail fungus-home remedies?
Answer: I would use tea tree and lavender essential oils. Somethin' tells me that tea tree alone won't quite kick it for you. Use three drops of lavender and one of tea tree three times a day for a couple of days to see if that takes care of it. www.alternative-measures.comYour healthcare provider can prescribe medicine for your fungal infection that you take by mouth. Treatment lasts 12 weeks. This medicine travels through your bloodstream to reach the fungus where it lives deep under the nail in your nail bed. A prescription polish is also available. It must be applied to the infected nail daily for up to 48 weeks. To find out if one of these medications is right for you, talk with your healthcare provider. Some people use products not approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for nail fungus infections, such as over-the-counter creams, lotions, and polishes from a drugstore or pharmacy. Others use home remedies, such as vinegar or other solutions. But these products may not work very well because they don't reach the fungus where it lives under the nail.Above from:http://www.lamisil.com/info/simplystated...
