If your
toenails are discoloured (i.e. brown or yellow), have thickened, or are giving
off a foul smell, then chances are you have a toenail fungus. Toenail fungus is
very common and can be due to a variety of things including, athlete’s foot,
poor circulation, or excess moisture. To get rid of this fungus with little
effort and cost, follow the steps of these natural home remedies.
Each morning and before you go to bed at night, apply tea tree oil under and around each nail bed using a Q-tip. Tea tree oil, as we’ve said in many of our health and wellness thrifty tips, is an amazing natural antiseptic and fungicide. You always want to have a little bottle of tea tree oil in your cupboard.
Then, you need to make sure that all of your shoes are also free of the fungus. If you don’t get rid of the fungus in your footwear then your feet are guaranteed to be infected by the fungus again. Using tea tree oil, moisten a few cotton balls and push them into the toes of all of your shoes. Leave the cotton balls in the shoes as long as possible (i.e. a minimum of 24 hours) and repeat if necessary.
It’s important that you administer these home remedies as soon as you can. If left untreated, the fungus can disfigure toenails to the point where it’s quite painful to walk or even wear shoes.
