DIY fungal nail infection treatment

hhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

I have a molar that has a channel between the two roots completely open. I use a syringe and some antiseptic to flush it out. keeps infections at bay

Thanks for this idea. I have one dodgy fingernail - the doctor has never seen such a thing. The nail is not flakey like it was when I first noticed it, but is still discoloured.

I used an expensive Scholl system on my toenails for nearly a year and it had some effect. The local pharmacist recommended Daktarin (it seems to be the only topical substance suitable for nails, at least among the 'gunk-in-a-tube' sort). Lightly abraded the nails once a week, used Daktarin twice a day until the tube was empty, cleared up the infection. I did all of the nails, even those that weren't discoloured, between the toes and also any thick skin near the toes, as infection can spred under this. Previously I'd tried three other creams, chosen for differing active ingredient, with only limited benefit.

Am I the only person that decided the definition of old it when you cannot bite your own toe nails?

That landmark passed so long ago I can?t remember it. ;-)

I don't know whether it's due to age, height or fat, but my toes can't get closer than 10" away from my teeth.

How do you avoid drilling into your toe. I think also as we age, our nails thicken and do separate, allowing nasty things to gain a foothold (sorry), so you might have just been lucky. Brian

If it's like the technique of releasing blood trapped under a banged nail, I think the general idea is to hand-hold the drill bit rather than use an electric drill. Alternatively try a needle heated to red hot on the hob.

Never tried it, but have heard applying a drop of tea tree oil at base of nail helps.

When I was married Pavla always had an orgasm if I was sucking her toe whilst knobbing her.

And she could put her legs behind her neck so I never had to put any effort in.

Have you tried TePe interdental brushes?

They come in a variety of colour-coded sizes.

I use mine to get toothpaste into the gaps between teeth.

Excellent multi-tasking!

There you go. Two jobs at the same time done by a bloke.

when you can no longer even see your toes is a milestone that many people pass at some point.

Reminds me of seaside postcards:

Sainsbury's and ASDA do cheaper versions, but yes, very good.

Interdental brush in the morning, floss at night.
