I've heard that Virgin Olive Oil works for the nails?

Question

I have fungus under my nails. I've heard from a few people that virgin olive oil will clear that up, does anyone know if this is really true?

Answer 1

If you have fungus under your nails, you need to the underlying cause of the fungus before you try to treat it. You could have an infection in your body. I would suggest paying a visit to the doc and see what's causing the problem. There's Rx's that are prescribed specifically for fungus of the nails by your doctor. Good luck.

lemongrass essential oil cures toe fungus.mix it with Teatree oil and dropper apply inside the nail. the infected portion of the nail will turn black within 24 hrs.
you can also try using distilled white vinegar n soaking your feet in it for few minutes.
if you have apple cider vinegar mix it equally with water (50-50) n soak your feet in night for 20 min.you can do this twice also.
