I bought a dremel rotary tool and found the small sanding discs to be very useful, taking away majority of the nail and fungus with little effort, keeping this up regularly as regrowth occurs the nail remains soft and porous allowing me to apply clear iodine and anti-fungal liquid effectively twice a day. As far as I can tell it is on its way out, more and more new nail appears unaffected.

I have suffered with nail fungus for many years. Within those years I have gone to many podiatrists who all said the same thing, “you can’t get rid of dark nails”. This was horrible, because even though it is difficult for me to buy sandals because of my small feet and because they are extra wide I wanted to be able to let me feet get some air. However, I did find a couple of sandals from Footsmart.com that look decent and purchase them years ago but couldn’t wear them because of the 3 dark nails that I had on my toes. Recently, I found a podiatrist who gave me “Formula 3″, which is a natural remedy. I have before and after pictures. It really works and I am so happy now. No toxic nail polishes and no laser. My nails are so much better now. I don’t know why this treatment does not come up when people Google about nail fungus. It is truly the best. I can’t wait to show my niece my toenails she won’t believe how they look. Ask you podiatrist about this item.

Hi Margaret,

I got this lovely shit several years ago from a nail salon. I know this because I had never had a pedi before, always did my own toes.

For the longest time I had no clue what these white marks on my toenails were. I thought I was damaging my toes somehow with too many years of pointed high heels. Finally a bit of Googling and I found out what it was.

So, I went without polish for a year until it all grew out, but it returned once I resumed with polish. So, with a bit of searching the internet, this is what has worked for me. First, what I realize is that when you head to the nail tech, with all the soaking and lotion, the nail stays moist. Without hesitation they start to polish…STOP! Make sure that they remove any moisture from your nails before painting them! Whether by adding polish remover or Rubbing Alcohol, your nails should be moisture free, lotion free and dryed out before they coat in the moisture with polish.

I noticed that my nails would be clear at the time of my pedi and 3 weeks later when I went in to get my nails done, there was the fungus again!

Here’s how I got them clear: I used Nutra Nail Green Tea Antimicrobial Nail Solution and rubbed it on top and under my bare nails morning and night. After that dried, at night I would also add the Vicks Vapor rub. I did this diligently for all toes, infected or not. And it worked. I cut away the fungus as the nail grew out, but a few months later my nails were clear and have been for the most part since. I had the lumps like you described on a few nails which has also cleared up.

When I head to the salon for a pedi I make sure that my nails are really, really dry before they coat with base coat. It really does make a difference. After the file your bumps down, go home bare nailed and try the remedy I listed above.

Good luck chica!

Vicks Vaporub. It really really works. All you have to do is apply it every nigh. Be sure to clip away as much as you can of the infected nail without hurting yourself. Good luck!

Time to get real. You are seriously committed to getting rid of this, or not. I was plagued with this since the age of 7: the pain, infections, embarrassment. Now at 35 it is all gone. For a serious case, home remedies are bullshit. Also systemic fungi like this have been tied to cancer. You will have to throw away ALL your shoes. Dissolve the infected nails with a medication called urea. Treat the foot with antifungals. Go about in sandals/flipflops/bare feet whenever possible. If you buy new shoes, spray the inside with antifungal spray. Take prescription Lamisil for three months. Repeat if necessary. Cure!

dear lord — we have to love ghost writers or the lack of creative ingenuity being challenged from phyllis diller’s grave. oh lord — we’d hope they can muster something other than mustard if we must turd — gagging as such on that line beyond crystal phallanx to phallis of dragging heels when drag became so bad. it happens. please wake up or get rid of the ghost writers.

Remove as much of nail as possible then soak in Listerine for a few minutes over a few nights.. worked for me.
