Mix equal parts of hydrogen peroxide and water. This diluted solution helps prevent irritation while effectively targeting toenail fungus.
Wash your feet thoroughly with soap and water. Dry completely before applying hydrogen peroxide to ensure the solution adheres well.
Soak affected toenails in the hydrogen peroxide solution for 15-20 minutes. This helps kill fungus and softens the nails for easier treatment.
Use a cotton ball or swab to apply hydrogen peroxide directly to the affected toenail. Ensure full coverage for effective treatment.
Apply hydrogen peroxide twice daily, once in the morning and once at night. Consistency helps combat the fungus and promote healing.
After application, let the hydrogen peroxide dry completely before putting on socks or shoes. This prevents moisture from reactivating the fungus.
Watch for any signs of irritation or sensitivity. If redness or discomfort occurs, dilute the solution further or reduce application frequency.
Apply antifungal foot powder to keep feet dry and reduce the risk of fungal growth. This complements hydrogen peroxide treatment and promotes faster healing.
