Peroxide will not kill toe nail fungus. You need an anti-fungal medicine which you'll have to apply for ages - you should go to the doctor. Or.. did you remove the whole nail???
You can put a band-aid on it, no problemo.

In relation to the peroxide I agree with the other posters about the peroxide not doing anything for the fungus. The reason why it doesn't is because it's not an anti-fungal medication.
You can try something like tea tree oil but I would recommend seeing your dr about this and let them try to remove the nail from the nail bed instead. In the mean time yes, you can put a band aid on it.

Don't worry about it. If the sight of the nail being removed bothers him that much he must be pretty much of a wimp.
The nail will grow back but it will take a good long while, probably about a year.

It's an infection and needs to be treated with oral antibiotics. You need a doctor's prescription. I have the same thing and was being treated with Sporonox it was working but, the prescription was $66 per month then jumped up to $75. I stopped taking it, but now I'm thinking about going back on it as I now have different insurance.

try seeing a doctor or going to a manicurist. manicurists know all about nail fungi and they should be able to help you...
if your boyfriend really loves you, a little toe nail fungi isn't gonna turn him off you. but for the time being, just dress pretty and keep your boyfriend's eyes on your face so he doesn't look at your feet. :)

Peroxide won't do anything to a fungus infection
