Natural Remedies for Nail Fungus
Nail fungus may not cause pain or interfere with activities, but it can be embarrassing and unsightly. Natural remedies, used faithfully, can heal nail fungus and allow you to feel comfortable going barefoot or wearing sandals again. Effective home treatments include vinegar, essential oils and coconut oil.
What Is Nail Fungus?
Toenail fungus, formally known as onychomycosis, is a very common fungal infection that afflicts the dark, moist environment of the feet and can be picked up just about anywhere (fingernail fungus is possible as well and can be treated in the same way, but occurs less often).
Symptoms of toenail fungus are generally limited to the nail itself and begin with a white or yellow patch beneath a nail's tip. This will worsen until the affected nail thickens and becomes brittle. Other symptoms include changes in nail color and shape; eventually nails will split or even separate from the nail bed.
