Fungus under the toenails or onychomycosis is a difficult problem to treat. A couple of things that might help are:
Tea tree oil -- It is a potent natural antiseptic and fungicide. Only one or two drops twice a day at the growing base of the nail.
Iodine -- Rub it on, around, and under the affected toenails.
Both of these items will still take a long time to cure your onychomycosis but so do conventional medicines. www.natural-cure-remedy.com

Onychomycosis is a toe nail fungus caused by a group of fungus dermatophytes, which invades the nail plate causing disfiguration and discoloration of the nails. - Apply tea tree oil on the affected nail to treat the fungus, as tea tree oil has natural antifungal and antiseptic properties.
- Soak your feet in warm water mixed with apple cider vinegar for 15-20 minutes. Wash and clean thoroughly removing the dead skin. Cut the protruding nail and keep them clean.
- Soak your nail in Listerine mouthwash, as it has potent antiseptic properties that will help to fight the fungus.
- Avoid wearing too tight shoes, wear soft cotton socks and keep your finger dry by putting antifungal powder prescribed by a specialist.
