Brittle, hard, and yellowing nails… How do you stop it?

I know someone who claims to have cured it with Vic’s Vapor Rub. I don’t know if that’s possible since it starts deep in the nail bed. There was a write up about it a few years ago in Runners World but it didn’t mention nail fungus in particular. It just said it had good anti fungal properties.

2 months ago I had my artificial nails removed, Even the nail bed was damaged. I was left with only a tiny , short, damaged nails. I went to 2 other salons and talked to them. They told me to use Vite20, which is a nail fungus treatment. About 5 of my fingernails have grown a small amount. I feel very badly that a have to spend the summer with practically no fingernail. Has anyone ever had this happen to them. Will they eventually grow out?

yes but to SPEED UP the process eat lots of protein it will make them grow faster since nails are made out of protein

EAT LOTS OF PROTEIN TO SPEED UP PROCESS!!!

you can go to any primary care or dermatologists clinic for nail fungus treatment, good luck

My employer doesn’t care at all about workers.I’m working there for 1.5 year but I’m thinking about leaving for the last 5 months.The problem is that I got nail fungus because the stuff we carry in the company is dirty and is easy to get any infection.When i’d asked to get some gloves my manager told me off.There are more bad things that happened like losing lunch time (most of them) and not getting overtime for that, racist comments (been called white shit) and no health and safety training.In general treatment has been very bad.The wages are very low and managers expect us to do the job of two people with no time.Even to see a doctor I had to take days off from my holidays.I don’t want to fight so much but I have been forced to write this letter and if I have to go to the court i’ll do so.I know that is capitalism and employers try to use employers as much as possible but we have some rights too.Please help me!To whom should I talk and what to do about?

You can call your labor board and call OSHA to file a complaint. Do your company have a strong HR dept and / or union? Once you file a complaint the company can’t fire you on grounds about your job situation. Just be on time and don’t violate rules.

I have tried everything to cure my toe nail fungus with no success. Yesterday, I was in the salon and a someone who works there specializing in foot care, sold me a topical liquid that she said was a secret miracle cure that she guaranteed would get rid of my nail fungus in less than a month. Well, she filed down and cut the nails and put a drop on each nail. She sold me the bottle for about $150.00. I am amazed that today, the very next day, the nails look incredibly better. They have returned to their white color and everything. My concern is this… I am not usually a believer in miracle cures., and now i am worried that there might be something dangerous to my health in this solution. Does anyone know if a topical treatment can be dangerous? I have checked the interent and there doesn’t seem to be any miracle cures out there.

After getting recurring ingrown toe nails partially due to nail fungus, and recently developed a nasty fungal infection in my left big toe, I went online searching for an alternative to precription meds that really works and I’ve found it!

It’s made by a well-known natural product co. called,"Jason" and it’s called,"No Fungus Among Us Nail Care – Nail Saver."
Not only was there something reminiscent of pus eminating from underneath the nail, but there was a blackish/green discoloration under part of the nail and the nail was starting to detach itself from the nail bed, along with some throbbing pain. This was not an ingrown nail, since I’ve had many in my life.
My nail is now reattached to the nail bed, no more pus liquid, pain and the discoloration is almost back to normal!
I purchased it from www.mothernature.com for less than $6!
Goes on like nail polish around cuticles, etc.
And it contains all natural ingredients-very safe.
Highly recommended. At the mothernature web site, other customers have reviewed this product with amazing results.

Please tell brand-name and also generic-name of medicine as medication for fungus under thumb-nail?

I soak them in Hydrogen peroxide..but once when i was really in a hurry I used bleach mildly and hot soapy water..just a little bit and it worked just fine,..but usually, hydrogen peroxide soak will do the job.

the fungus goes 95% and new healthy nail appears and all of sudden small fungus reappears to spoil completely the new nail.The damage repeats. The drugs administered oral prescription warns of damage to liver and kidney if over/mal dosed.One hand one ring finger is the affected part now. Afraid it may spread to other fingers eventually if not treated. Waiting in anxiety for solutions from kind people at large.

Hi Deva

I think this is the info you need. Kill a fungus/infection is what you need done. Here are plenty of ideas that will work.

Symptoms
Symptoms of infection include redness, inflammation, pain, swelling, and pus formation (abscess) at the site of the infection. Fever, cough, sneezing, fatigue, and bowel dysfunction (diarrhea) can also arise due to infection.

Note: Antibiotics do not protect against viral infection or inflammatory conditions, although they are often prescribed for such conditions.

Moreover, antibiotics destroy both harmful bacteria and the beneficial bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract, potentially causing digestive and gastrointestinal problems and systemic yeast (Candida albicans) overgrowth.

Natural Cures

Aromatherapy: For fungicidal infections, cedarwood is effective, while for infected wounds, frankincense, tea tree, and/or patchouli can be useful.

Diet: Increase your intake of garlic and unflavored yogurt, and add infection fighting foods, such as diluted and organic (no sugar added) orange juice, apples and apple juice, grapes and grape juice, cranberries, blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, peaches, plums, figs, cabbage, onion, kelp, and raw honey to your diet. Avoid sugar in any form, and drink plenty of filtered water.

Herbs: Herbs that act as anti-infectious agents include echinacea, goldenseal, garlic, Oregon grape, barberry, and adaptogenic herbs such as Siberian ginseng. Grapefruit seed extract also has strong antibiotic-like properties and can be applied topically or taken orally. Olive leaf extract has both antibacterial and antiviral properties, making it useful for a wide range of infections.

Hydrotherapy: Hydrotherapy is the application of water, ice, steam and hot and cold temperatures to maintain and restore health. Treatments include full body immersion, steam baths, saunas, sitz baths, colonic irrigation and the application of hot and/or cold compresses. Hydrotherapy is effective for treating a wide range of conditions and can easily be used in the home as part of a self-care program. Many Naturopathic Physicians, Physical Therapists and Day Spas use Hydrotherapy as part of treatment.

Hyperthermia: Hyperthermia involves artificially creating fever in the body for the purpose of boosting immune function. Hyperthermia can be a highly effective method of eliminating toxins and heavy metals, as well as infectious bacteria and viruses that cannot survive in elevated body temperatures.

*Purified water is essential for any hydrotherapy or hyperthermia treatment. Remedies for Treating Chlorinated Bath Water offers clear instructions and recommendations.

Juice Therapy: Combining the juices of carrot, celery, beet, cantaloupe, and ginger can be helpful.

Nutritional Supplementation: The following nutritional alternative to antibiotics is often effective in treating infection, particularly in the initial stages: vitamin A (400,000 IU daily for five days), liquid garlic extract (up to two 4-ounce bottles a day) or the equivalent of high-quality garlic in capsules or tablets, and vitamin C to bowel tolerance.

Note: This protocol should only be used only under your doctor`s guidance. The dosages are for an average 150-pound adult and should be scaled down proportionately according to weight. The vitamin A should be taken for a period of at least three days, but no more than five days. In addition, vitamin A in these doses can cause headaches in about 1% of those who use it. Should this occur, decrease the dose.

Other useful nutrients for dealing with infection include: colloidal silver, essential fatty acids (EFAs), bromelain (an enzyme with anti-inflammatory properties), calcium, magnesium, vitamin B complex, vitamin B6, and zinc.

Alternative Professional Care
If your symptoms persist despite the above measures, seek the help of a qualified health professional. The following professional care therapies have all been shown to be useful for treating infection: Acupuncture, Craniosacral Therapy, Detoxification Therapy, Environmental Medicine, Magnetic Field Therapy, Naturopathic Medicine, Oxygen Therapy, Reflexology, and Traditional Chinese Medicine

Best of health to you

An infection of nail fungus (onychomycosis) occurs when fungi infect one or more of your nails. Onychomycosis (on-i-ko-mi-KO-sis) usually begins as a white or yellow spot under the tip of your fingernail or toenail. As the nail fungus spreads deeper into your nail, it may cause your nail to discolor, thicken and develop crumbling edges — an unsightly and potentially painful problem.

the best otc drug’s are ciclopirox (Penlac), which you paint onto your infected nails and surrounding skin once a day.
and econazole nitrate (Spectazole).

Tea tree oil works really well for nail fungus.

tea tree oil is a powerful antifungal and will kill the fungus quite well, and leave all the healthy tissue unharmed, unlike some medications out there.

Just apply pure tea tree oil as often as possible and you’ll notice a difference within a few days.

Good luck,
