If you are witnessing your nails are getting discolored, brittle or thicken, then it can be a case of fungal nail infection. The fungus can attack the finger nails, toenails or the nail bed through small cuts or the opening between the nail and nail bed and it can be reduced if you apply antifungal cream for feet before visiting a podiatrist. In most of the cases, this fungus affects the toe nails as toenails turn to be easy subjects for fungi that reside in damp areas.
Home remedies for treating the fungal infection—
Tea tree oil is the key
Tea tree oil is great to treat the fungus attack naturally. You can make a mixture of tea tree oil, orange oil, olive oil and gently apply it on the affected area with a cotton ball. Keep it for 10 minutes and after that scrub the nail with a soft brush. You can simply pour tea tree oil in water and soak the feet in it. You must do it twice in a day and repeat the same until you get a result.
Baking soda and white Vinegar
Baking soda doesn’t kill the fungus but helps to stop its fast growth. The alkaline nature of the baking soda is anti-acidic that don’t let the fungus spread further. Baking soda is capable of killing the fungus and being a mild acid keeps the Ph balanced.
Coconut oil
This is a great remedy for most of the hair issues and skin infection as well. Just apply coconut oil at the infected area and let it dry naturally. Do it 2-3 times daily. The best part is coconut oil is completely safe for skin and you won’t risk any side effect.
