Toenail infection treatment begins with understanding some basic things about the organism that causes you to have toe nail fungus.  The first thing that you need to know, although it is kind of creepy, is that this organism is live and it has chosen you as a source of survival.

Toenail fungus, also known as onychomycosis is caused by a small creature called a dermatophyte.  They thrive in dark, damp places and the inside of sweaty shoes is a perfect environment for them to live in.

Ultimately, they eat nail debris and spread throughout your nail bed and toe nails.  One of the things that makes fungus so hard to kill is that most of the time they live beneath your nail and are therefore very difficult to reach.  Another problem is the fact that the fungus is highly contagious and can live on surfaces for many months.

Toenail Infection Treatment Plan…

1.  Keep your feet clean and dry.  Wash with some kind of antifungal soap and use an antifungal spray or powder.

2. Rotate your shoes and change your socks daily.

3. Do not expose your feet to potentially contaminated surfaces like gym floors, swimming pool, decks, showers, etc.

4. Use natural fungus fighting products with oils like tea tree, oil of oregano, etc that can kill nail fungus.

5. Consider a laser toenail treatment.  The cost for such visits are anywhere from $1000 to $1200 U.S. dollars.
