Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
How Can Fungal Infection On The Toe Nail Be Treated?
I am looking for Charparral (dried) to help with toenail fungus. Have found a Toenail fungus protocol on the internet. Use six tbsp dried chaparral to one quart of boilling whiskey.. Reduce and simmer for 20 minutes. Remove and steep for 8 hours. Soak your feet in this solution for 20 minutes a day, Repeat the procedure for two weeks.
Have had laser treatment on both feet and did not help. Costly $400 for one treatment. Have used a natural mixed with Mother of Vinegar, but does not help.
According to the info I have seen on the internet chapparral is dangerous to take internal, but want to soak my feet in this. Would this be safe?
Fungal infection can only be treated with anti-fungal agent beside this it cannot be given try with anything else, such experiment you have mentioned here may prove dangerous or some time flair up disease.
If this is the fungal infection of the nail then it best can be managed with Miconazole ointment and oral anti-fungal medication like Terbinafine drug three times in day for 10 days, sometime two molecules can be added if single molecules fails to response.
But it is all depends upon the clinical condition, why not to consult the dermatologist for best line of treatment and proper diagnosis.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
