Toenail fungus can actually be very difficult to treat. Since
the fungus lives under the toenail, it is hard to get to it. The
best treatment will actually depend on how severe the infection is
and what kind of medicines you prefer to take. If you catch it
early, there are some very good topical treatments you can use.
Some are all natural and some have active ingredients. If the
infection is severe and nothing else is working, you should talk to
your doctor. The prescription pills have some very extreme side
effects, so I would only use those as a last option.
The web site below has a lot more information. There is also a
link at the bottom to go to a review of 2 products you can start
with at home.
