Hello, my name is Sarah and I’m on a mission to educate people about toenail fungus. I know it’s not a pleasant topic to be talking about but people do get these conditions and need to know that there are remedies available to treat toenail fungus.
My nails are cracked looking dont hurt or breaking off. Not to hard & I was taking lamisil for the nails but over time it started messing my stomach up and i had to stop, but my nails are still bad looking. will athlete’s foot spray or cream work? any other suggestions what can i do for the nail fungus?

When I was in manicure school in CA . . . one very helpful instructor told us about a ‘little known’ (and cheap) cure for nail fungus…
WHITE IODINE
Have not had reason to test this out myself, but, I can’t see how/why it would hurt to try it!
Best wishes to you in your quest . . .
Uh, I’d say don’t handle it at all. It make get on your hands then. See a doc.
Athletes foot is not nail fungus. You need something that will kill the fungus that grows under the nail and its not that easy. The doctor can proscribe something.
You can buy over the counter stuff but you must put it on everyday on clean dry feet. Sometimes twice a day. It’s best to keep the nail short and file down the thick nail then put the med on.

Ask your doctor for an antifungal cream.
Soak nails in hydrogen peroxide with witch hazel for 3 mins a day. Or soak in an antiseptic like Dettol for at least 2 mins a day and eventually it will grow out and keep cutting the nails but be certain to disinfect the clippers afterwards.
With great care. Also try not getting fungus under your nails, it sounds quite icky
Topical anti-fungal preparations are not usually helpful. On the upside the problem is really only cosmetic. There is no real danger. If it really bothers you then consult your physician and he/she may be able to prescribe some medications that will deal with the stomach upset while taking the Lamisil. Good Luck
go 2 tha doctor dude!!
just try some free samples off of walmart tridigital .com they often have free samples for stuff like that. so just google walmart free samples.
LAMSIL
use atheletes foot powder. fungus likes to live in dark moist places. the powder absorbs the sweat taking one element away from the fungus.
