I was watching TV last night, and I saw this advertisement for a foot fungal product. Several years ago, both of my big toes had fungal nails. A foot specialist (not a doctor, but a nurse who does in home foot care for diabetic patients) told me that if I put Vicks Vaporub on my toes once a day, every day, after a long time (it took a year for me) the fungus would go away. The advantage to this is that most fungicide are actually very poisonous to the human body, and the Vicks product is not.
The second advantage is that when I notice the nail problem re-occurring, I use the Vicks Vaporub, and it nips the problem in the bud.
Modern medicine is good, but sometimes, the old time remedies work and are even safer.
