Natural cure for toe nail fungus
  • After coming from outside, wash your feet with some antibacterial lotion and lukewarm water. Exfoliate gently with a pumice stone and dry your feet especially in between your toes. Now apply olive oil mixed with tea tree oil or undiluted tea tree oil to the infected toe.


    Rub the toe for 2 to 3 minutes and leave it open.
  • Apply some Listerine mouthwash on the toe or add it to 1/4th bucket of water and soak your feet in it.
  • Add equal quantities of warm water and apple cider vinegar.


    Pour this into a bucket and soak your feet in it for 15 minutes. Take out your feet, wipe it with a soft cotton cloth and dry them using a hair dryer.
  • Mix some lavender oil and olive oil and dab a cotton ball in this mixture. Now, apply it on the infected toe 3 to 4 times daily.
  • Wear only cotton socks and wash them daily. Keep extra pairs of socks and replace the worn out ones immediately.
  • Do not cut your nails at the corners and keep them straight and short. Trim them regularly and avoid nail polish till the infection lasts.
  • Wear open shoes and sandals and rest your feet from time to time.
