   Useless video. All he does is he goes through a bunch of all the home remedies out there. On top of those people are known to use youghurt, chlorine, almond oil, etc etc etc. All these methods are scientifically unproven, though some seem to be more efficient than others, if you look and ask and read around.

   Once the fungus is into the nail bed, it is almost IMPOSSIBLE to reach with topical treatment. I ate terbinafine, the strongest stuff there is, for 6 months. No improvement whatsoever…

   There is no cure for toenail fungus. The products are only there to take your money because you become so desperate for a cure. Even the new technology of laser treatments have only an 88% success rate. This also will cost you $1200 for something that has no guarantee. Face it you are stuck with your fungus until you die. I have had my fungus for 10 years now and I have tried everything to get rid of it including oral medication and nothing ever worked.

   I think I’ll try that. At least vinegar is pretty cheap.

   I tried Vicks Vapor Rub and that did nothing.

   Then I tried a 50/50 mix of Apple Cider Vinegar and water. Not wanting to have to sit there and soak my toes in it, I put the mixture in a spray bottle. In the morning after I shower, I spray my feet and nails with it generously and put my socks on.

   The vinegar smells, but the smell doesn’t last long once your sock airs out. (About 10 minutes).

   It’s been about 2 months and the fungus is 90% gone.

    I think it also depends on the climate you live in. I have just been in Turkey where the temperature was more than 105F. I spent most of my days in the sea & didn’t wear socks in the evenings. My toenails grew REALLY quickly during that holiday – and I also noticed that the sea-salt water helped. Around the hotel pool, I couldn’t help noticing how many other ppl had the same problem – French, Germans, Eastern Europeans – I saw many bad cases.

    Anyway, I’m gonna try vinegar next. Cheers!

    I’m sorry to say I got lazy and quit after several days but I’m going to start it again. What you said was relayed to me… but that is why treatment needsd to be continuous until the healthy nail grows in otherwise the infection can jump the healthy part and get back into the cuticle somehow.

    But when I was doing it, it was like the vinegar was really soaked into my skin… it was saturated No way fungus can grow in that environment. Just gotta start it again.

    You say “after a couple of days, you could see white growing back”. How long have you actually been treating your toes with this method? I sincerely hope it is working for you, but just because your toenails appear to have become “white” doesn’t necessarily mean the infection has gone.

    Message me in a few months and let me know if you had any success!

    No, I don’t think you’re right and I hope you’re wrong but here’s why… I have it on one of my toes and I did two things. At night, when I’m on the internet, I soaked both feet in a 1:1 mixture of vinegar and hydrogen peroxide. I’m not sure the hp is needed but the vinegar is… I let it soak for 2 hours the first night and then went to bed with a tea-tree oil-soaked cotton ball over my toenail, fastened by tape.

    After a couple of days of doing this, I could see the white growing back out!

    I’m not convinced t-tree oil actually works. Infact, I’m beginning to think once you’ve had this infection, you are stuck with it for life.

    grrrrrrr

    I have now come off my medication from the doctors. I am now using t-tree oil, however, I am sorry to say my infections appear to be returning again. This is SO annoying for me, as I have worked really hard at getting rid of this.

    How did you do it? Did you put Vicks on and on top with a band aid? How long did you leave it on/how many times a day/week did you put the VicKs on? What is Nitrate 2%?

    would it work faster if I clipped my nails as much as I could and then try to use one of these or several of these solutions combined? I.e. cutting my nails really short then soaking them all in a mixture of 1/3 listerine, 1/3 vinegar, 1/3 water? I will try this and update whenever I see results. I hope people out there are getting the results they’ve been seeking for. This condition is really embarrassing for me. I paint my nails all the time because of it .

    I’m 17, I’ve had toe nail and finger nail fungus as long as I can remember . I used to have a bad habit of biting my nails, probably caused my nail fungus… and when I was little, I never cared about drying my feet properly whenever I went swimming and stuff. I didn’t know those kinds of stuff would have such horrible effects. I have it infected on all fingers, except my thumb on the right hand. I had some healthier nails 2 years back but most is infected now:( I’m willing to do what it takes

    You can easily remove the fungus by clipping your toe just behind the nail with hedge clippers. Your fungus will be instantly removed. No joke.
