Suggest Treatment For Toenail Fungal Infection
Question: I have toe nail fungus. I want to begin a medication for the problem, but I'm not sure which medication is safest and which is most successful . Please advise me. My podiatrist gave me NailEase, however while researching the product, I realized it is meant for an ingrown toenail, not toenail fungus. I truly want a good product with very few side effects.
