Can confirm topicals are pretty useless. I prescribe Terbinafine all the time for this, 12 weeks and you're good. Results are delayed, typically needs 1-2 months of daily adherence before you see some progress.

Going to sound like an old black man when I say this, but it absolutely works, and works fast:

Vapor Rub.

ded fkn srs brah.

It hydrates the nail.

You'll still want to use something else to kill/inhibit the fungus, but 2 days of using vapor rub in the morning and night and it will look clear.

the 100% cure is tea tree oil. i tried many things for it to only come back right away. this chit is legit

I had a minor chemical burn from it but the fungus was gone. I didnt dilute it enough.

12 weeks is a chitton of time to spend on some antibiotics

What happens if you just let it be?

*Antifungal. It's purely cosmetic. Chit ain't gonna kill you. So many older folks just let it be.

I had one nail with a spot of yellow. (I think from gym or something, dunno exact source)

Doctor had two choices.:


1- a pill that will definitely damage your liver, zero alcohol.

2- a tea tree and medical nail polish you put on twice a day.


Cleared it up within weeks without having to quit drinking for 6 months or whatever it was, just after college when partying was still life. So painting the nail was easy enough to do.

Sheeit.
Yeah i read up more on the medicine it has mad side effects.

I heard soaking the toe in vinegar everyday clears it up too

Better Nail worked great for me but it does take time.

[crupiea]

Vicks vaporub old school remedy.

Put it in morning and night and it will slowly clear it up.
