Vinegar for Fungus

Home Remedies

There are so many uses for vinegar it boggles the mind. An otolaryngologist (ear, nose, and throat specialist) recommended rinsing the ear with the following solution: one part vinegar to five parts tepid water. He suggested putting drops in the ear three times a day. Toenail fungus can be unsightly. Try soaking the infected nails for at least fifteen to thirty minutes daily. The recipe: one part vinegar to two parts warm water. Allow six weeks to see a cure. It worked for Joe!

Maybe it really wasn't nail fungus.

I tried vinegar mixed with water for toenail fungus a few years ago, with a little success.
Six months ago, or maybe as long as a year, I started using Hydrogen Peroxide mixed 50/50 with water and applied with a Q-tip. All discoloration is gone and my nails are going back to normal shape.

I think Hydrogen Peroxide works the best for toenail fungus. I had great results.
