Title: Toe nail infections
Post by Sir Eoin O Fada on Dec 24th, 2024 at 11:21am
Fungal infections can be embarrassing, painful or just generally annoying and their treatment may be long and expensive.
One much touted treatment is just under $100 for a very small bottle and very slow to work.
There is however a very inexpensive treatment that works fast and is available ‘’over the counter’’, Vick’s Vaporub.
Applied night and morning a few days will see an improvement.
Unfortunately it cannot be recommended by health professionals because clinical trials have not been conducted for this purpose.

I think one of the natural oil is also good.
Oil of rosemary, something like that.

Bare feet or sandals may help avoid toenail infections.

Tea tree oil.

My late father had it prescribed by his podiatrist, and it worked a treat.

Do not use tea tree oil as a topical oil. That stuff will wreck your testosterone levels. However, Vicks Vaporub will do the opposite, as long as you are not using that more than a couple times a week. And you can use Vicks as long as you are not indulging in alcohol.

I started applying Vicks to my feet to try and cure the fungal infection on my feet, every work day. But, after a while, I discovered that the Vicks was being overused. I cut back to twice a week. These days, I just use the Vicks after I clip my toenails once a week.

Another treatment is to either use turmeric powder on your served up vegetables or salads for your meals. Just once a day is more than sufficient. Or you could take turmeric tablets. It seems that you get better blood flow and nutrients to your extremities. Just a few days after taking the supplements, I have noticed how healthy the nails on both hands and feet appear.

Well I hope that Vicks brings comfort to someone, even the  Post Total seeking ‘’humourists’’.
