There are many different ways to treat toenail fungus but there is no single solution that works in all cases.

There are many home remedies that some people believe have worked for them, including such cures as tea tree oil, Vick's Vaporub andapple cider vinegar.


There are over-the-counter remedies that often incorporate classic home-remedy ingredients such as tea tree oil or oregano oil.


There are prescription topical medicines (creams and lacquers) that are applied to the surface of the nail.


There are drugs that are taken orally over an extended period of time that are the most tested and proven solution, but can be expensive and have potential side effects.


Finally, the newest approach to curing nail fungus is laser treatments.
