Directly, I've tried a great deal of diverse stuff through the years. I had managed the combo nail parasite and sportspeople foot for just about 20 years. One "free" thing that did assistance a great deal was vinegar.

It didn't assist much with the nail growth yet it totally ceased the player's foot that I was additionally experiencing.

For the organism I tried a mess of distinctive things, incorporating over the counter medications, vinegar, dye, tea tree oil, vicks and lavender oil. Some of them did have a little effect yet none of them totally slaughtered the parasite.

I additionally tried lamisil which worked briefly then several months later I had a backslide of the nail parasite. The frightening thing with the lamisil is the conceivable health issues you can confront as an aftereffect of utilizing it, the specialist had me take a test to determine my liver wasn't inclined to issues before he'd give me the lamisil... swallow!

At length what at long last altered my loong term issue with nail growth was Zeta Clear. I suppose what additionally assisted is that I made it a part of my every day custom to utilize it.

Something else that I completed that likely bailed was toss out my old shoes. I have caught that the growth can live in your shoes and return after medicine. So to escape a backslide I made a point to get new shoes and toss out the old ones.

Best of Luck!

I included a connection in the source box to an extraordinary article that has a some really intriguing illumination on toenail organism and the distinctive medications you can utilize, in the event that you wanna look at it.

 
Laser does work. You need to find reliable doctor or clinic. I had bad nail fungus 2 years ago. Tried everything from herbs, vinegar treatments, nail lacquers, external nail creams etc. Nothing had worked and I was told by my primary care physician that my only choice left was to take the oral medication. I did not want to take the pills due to the side effects. I tried laser treatment at a local laser therapy clinic. It did take months for the new nails to grow out, but the effect is good and I have no fungus now. I'm very careful to not get a re-infection. There is no treatment can cure nail fungus once for all.

 
You have to be really careful where you go for pedis. I had a bad reaction and it took years to clear up. I used creams from my doctor.

 
Hello "Socks".  Just wondering if your April 2013 Laser Noetail Treatments worked. Is the fungus gone?

 
I agree about the essential oils and cutting the nail as short as you can to get off as much of the affected nail as you can. My Mom's podiatrist said to cut the nail short, and also to apply mentholatum several times per day. He said the oral drug was hard on people and that he liked to handle it the natural way. I hope this helps.

I PM'ed you the information.

 
I've had this problem for years (probably 7 or 8) and have tried almost everything except the pills that are bad for your liver.  My doctor wouldn't prescribe them for me.  They must be really bad for you.  Anyway, way back when it started the same doctor prescribed the nail polish, which I used as prescribed (apply once per week after removing it and cutting your nails) and it didn't do anything.  I tried an over the counter polish from Bed Bath & Beyond - It didn't do anything.  Then I heard about the laser treatment.  I found a doctor who claimed to have the "best" laser, paid him $699, got two treatments and AGAIN nothing - didn't do a damm thing.  He also had me using a cream on my toe nails, which I used as prescribed and gave me a UV light thing for my shoes that was supposed to kill the fungus in your shoes,  Nothing worked.  In late 2012 I saw a Groupon for $199 for a laser treatment and thought I'd try it again.  This doctor maintained that I also had to take what I refer to as "potions" (probiotics, and several other things that are supposed to fix the problem from your stomach, which he claimed is where your immune system begins).  I went back to him two more times for two more treatments which were another $99 each.  I'm about $600 into it and 4-5 months and I don't see ANY improvement.  BTW, my problem is not that severe.  Mostly on one foot and worst on about 4 toes (I've seen MUCH worse).

Anyway, at least for me, none of these things do a damm thing.   It almost seems like the fungus tries harder when I try to treat it,,,  I'd welcome any suggestions that REALLY work as I hate what it looks like.

 
There are different types of Laser treatment.  The one I used did not work.  In fact, the "doctor" was a quack - a scam artist.  He insisted that we pay using a check - because he knows that if we paid via credit card, we can request a "refund" via our credit card company within 2 months.

His "cold" laser was a red light that scans the whole feet.  We lost $500.  What dummies we were!!

That's so mean! You should report him! Cold laser is such a scam, lasers only work cause they heat the nail :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
I recommend the laser treatment if you have too much money and you need to get rid of some if it. It's a wonderful way to blow $1000 on nothing. Otherwise save your time and money as it does not work!!

 
laser treatment for toe fungus, YES, it does work  but you must use the clear liquid solution in addition every eay and disinfect your shoes   Good luck. 

 
Try Groupon, I got my treatment for $200 both feet and it worked wonderfully...great doctor and office. 

 
Hi socks. Read your post from 2013. I believe I am looking at the same laser treatment you referred to. I live in Alberta. Did it work for you?

 
Hi Chocollette. I saw the same ad and am seriously considering it. I live in Alberta. Can you tell me more? Which company or office?

 
Totally... It doesn't work at all. I waisted my time and my money believing that it will work but it does NOT.

 
I spent 1100 dollars on the laser treatment. 4 visits, did exactly what the doc told me and used the topical treatment he gave me. It didn't work at all. If you want to throw away money, do the laser treatment. But really, I'd hate to see more people waste money, hope I can save at least one person with this message from the laser treatment.

 
Yes. This is exactly the same as my case. I don't know how this treatment got approved. Sooo many people losing a lot of money! Just Google it and see how often it does not work. Too expensive for something that is not a sure thing!

 
I used to suffer from toenail fungus for several years. It was embarrassing, especially during flip flop season. I've been taking Biotin and I use Made from Earth's Tea Tree Shampoo. After 3 days of using the Made from Earth Tea Shampoo, the fungus started to clear up and has not come back. It is the tea tree oil in this shampoo - it kills the fungus. I do not use it on my hair, but I use as a body wash in the shower, and I make sure to wash my feet with it. No fungus for 1 year now!
