Question about toenail fungus...

Posted by SM on Sat, Dec 24 2022 at 11:10 AM CST:

I think I have toenail fungus affecting my big toenail only. It is very ridged and somewhat discolored. Also, the toe at the very base of the nail is quite itchy. I can't get in to see the dermatologist until the first week in February. Does anyone know of any successful home remedies?

You can get an OTC antifungal cream and use that. Could be quite helpful. nm Talon Sat, Dec 24 2022 at 12:23 PM CST (3)
- I was hoping for some non-medication type of treatment. Right now I'm using red cider vinegar, but it's not working. Mon, Dec 26 2022 at 10:37 AM CST (2)
  - I've rarely seen any home remedy work truly well as an antifungal Talon Mon, Dec 26 2022 at 01:26 PM CST (1)
    - You are not going to get any effect with that and it will only get worse. agree you need antifungal medication Mon, Dec 26 2022 at 06:11 PM CST (0)
