For Doc: Fungus on my toenails

[Guest guest]

Dear Doc:

This is so embarrassing, but I have had fungus on my toenails for 9 years. I

have tried a lot of things and nothing seems to work.

 

Just last night I noticed it is starting on the fingernails of my hands!! I was

crying last night because I am so frustrated. I don't want to take Lamisil

because I've read about the horrible side effects to the liver, etc. Not for me.

The new laser treatment is $1,200!!!! I just can't afford it.

 

Is there anything you know of that will take care of fungus on the nails.

 

Thanks for any help.

i admitt , that i have also fungus on both my big toes , ever since 2

patients drove over the toes with their electric scooters . one toe was

soo bad that some years ago it turned green and slimey underneath and

then the nail came of . it did not hurt , just looked really nasty .

toenail came back , still with fungus .

 

then someone said , put petroleum jelly on , cover it completely with

jelly and leave it on ...

 

out of desperation i did that . i know petroleum jelly is awful , but

.... i was running out of ideas . one of the nails finally came off [

again ] and this time the nail is growing back healthy . the L foot

still has fungus , and i am ready to do the jelly treatment again .

 

i think the petroleum jelly cuts off the air needed for the fungus to

grow . my problem is , that on my R toe i always had ingrown toenails ,

so i dont think that is helping any .

 

i would be interested in some ideas as well

my husband has had nail fungus for as long as i've known him. his thumb is so bad mishapen and horrible, the family has named it frankenthumb and fungusthumb.

 

changing the subject......

i read that boswellia (frankincence) is good for arthritis, so i bought some, put it in a cup on a candle burner with coconut oil, and tried massaging it in to my hands. seemed to work pretty good, so i told dh to try it to see if it worked for him. after coercing him, ignoring his poo poos....i made him try it to see if it helped him too. well, it did, and the next day he asked if he could try some more.

long story short, frankincence does help with arthritis pain.....but it has a side effect.......it kills nail fungus. now, after about 6 weeks, his thumb looks almost normal, and the fungus has really cleared a lot!

back in ancient times, frankincence was worth more than gold, and was used for everything. its anti biotic, anti viral, and anti fungal. it is great for any skin conditions, including erasing wrinkles (i may soon have trouble passing for a senior citizen, LOL) i can see why it was worth more than gold way back when, and wonder why it is not used more in modern times.

anyway, dh tried everything, including lamisil for awhile for fungus, and nothing ever worked, until this unusual side effect of frankincense.

 

i got mine online, its not too expensive, abt $5. jan

Vicks vapor rub works excellently but take a few months oregano oil probably will work faster and clean up your diet fungi live on the suger in your body so every sugery meal and snack adds to it

What I know about nail fungus is that not one remedy works for all. I don't know if there are different kinds of fungus under the nails or why there is so much difference in responses.

One of my herbal customers said what worked for him is a mix of Eucalyptus Globulus, tea tree oil, DMSO and GSE. I don't know if he put it in an olive oil base or what. Putting it on straight would be too strong. Experiment and see what works for you.

Dear Kitty,

If I were you, I'd be approaching this from the inside as well as the

outside.

There is always an internal "why" as well as an external symptom. Most

likely your diet needs some serious looking into so that it doesn't

come back.

This is what I'd do:

 

 

Increase your daily

intake of Total Tonic to double the daily dosage = 4 dropperfuls 3

times a day.

Take 4 cloves of

garlic a day by chopping them into quarters, dipping them in Olive Oil

and then swallowing them like a handful of vitamins.

Apply directly on

the area for 3 days one drop of Tea Tree Oil per toe per day.

After the Tea Tree

part is done, for 7 days, one drop of Black Walnut Hull Tincture on

each toe, 3 times a day until gone.

 

I'd cut out all meat while doing this regimen and if you haven't

done a Total Body Cleanse in a while, I'd even do that first and then

add the above in after a week of the TBC.

Hope this helps.

Best,

Doc
