  • I had one of them but the wheels fell off.
    Help of Christians, guard our land from assault or inward stain,
    Let it be what God has planned, His new Eden where You reign.

  • Don't put it over a cut as it will tattoo, and use it outside, wear old socks as they will be stained,  but Gentian Violet is great for fungal infections.
    If you hang dry your socks, make sure you iron them, the heat will kill it in the fabric.

  • Just make sure you use the treatments long enough, it can be tough to get rid of and hang around even when it looks like it's gone.

    If you don't use the stuff long enough it'll come back.

    I intend to use preventive measures long term now.

    I am also changing my habits which probably allowed this to happen.

    If it bleeds, we can kill it, but what if it doesn't bleed?!

  • Why does it need to bleed? Apply the anti-fungal cream or Gentian Violet topically.
    Use your sock or a dry towel to make sure between your toes are dry when you get dressed.

    Sorry. It was a reference to a famous line in a movie.



    10 second clip of that specific scene.

    See how entertainment imprints itself in our minds?

    I was playing with logic. Points to anyone who can state the possible violation of logic in my statement.

    You haven't yet told us just what "the treatments" are.

  • Tea tree oil-straight not diluted, gentian violet and apple cider vinegar (Bragg's).
    Only if these don't work resort to prescriptions. If you do use something like nizoral on the nails, don't apply it with your fingers directly. Wear gloves or use a cloth. Anti-fungals, nizoral in particular, are very hard on your liver.

  • there are certain 'home remedies' for certain conditions that just work.  Your situation is easy to eradicate naturally.  There's no need to use anythng that wil harm your liver.  
    White vinegar works, but you MUST use it as advised.  It worked for me, and every person I recommended it to (over the years, I'd guess at least 4?)
    Do a simple Startpage search (I don't use google) and you see links to various sites - even a youtube video.

  • soak your feet in warm salt water (like a full cup of salt)

    I do not know if they are effective yet.

    However, they seem to be effective. The infection was spreading rapidly and quite painful, but after treating it and baring my feet, the pain has gone away and the bright red skin is now a dull pink.

    The infection in the nail seems to have stopped and has not spread and seems to be primarily in the original area of infection.

    I am using a foot spray, a liquid treatment for my nails, and a foot powder for my boot and socks.

    I have a gallon of vinegar on standby.

    The various natural treatments were my first thing to research, but I would have had to order them.

    Tolnaftate and Undecylenic Acid are the active ingredients in the products I am using.
