how to cure toenail fungus!

My podiatrist told me to not buy expensive creams etc but to keep Vicks Vapour Rub on my affected toe nails. The toe nails grow so slowly it’s hard to keep tabs on how beneficial it is. The bonus though is that my shoes and feet smell great
 
Another fabulous home remedy is - apple cider vinegar! That wonderful stuff.

Soak your feet/immerse your toenails in it.

(I guess any vinegar will do? But I had read about ACV...)

My GP had told me that she could prescribe one of the medications, but I needed to know about potential liver damage, so she did not recommend I take it. So I used nail polish to disguise the discolouration, and had a change of climate (to a dry one) (that was a 'btw' of course) - so cured. But when I returned to a damp climate, got nail fungus again, I used the ACV treatment, and was delighted that it worked, and pretty promptly.
