Nail fungus home remedy can be a hit or miss for some people. There are many causes of nail fungus. There are also many potential solutions. Unfortunately, nail fungus home remedies are not going to help you get rid of your nail fungus. When people think about nail fungus home remedies, they usually think of products such as tea tree oil, vinegar, and baking soda. None of these products are designed to treat nail fungus like other treatments are.

When should you use a nail fungus home remedy treatment?

There are a few nail fungus treatments available that you might want to consider instead. These treatments range from oral and topical medications to laser treatment. Oral medications can have harmful side effects such as liver damage, while topical medications aren’t the most successful treatments. You may want to avoid these as a result. Laser toenail fungus treatment, however, is both safe and effective.

Simply put, if you try to use a home remedy to treat your nail fungus you will likely just be wasting your time. Instead, you should seek out a foot doctor who can treat you with a real toenail fungus treatment. As you probably know, toenail fungus will not go away on its own so it is important to get treated as soon as you can. If you don’t your nail fungus can keep getting worse.

Laser Treatment for Nail Fungus

If you have caught nail fungus, it can be easily treated using the FDA-approved PinPointe laser, which typically only takes on treatment. Other treatments like topical solutions and oral medication are not as effective. Topical solutions have a very low cure rate. This is because the solution does not penetrate all the way through the nail bed. Oral medication is not recommended by our nail doctors. This is because it can lead to liver toxicity. You would need to have consistent blood tests throughout the course of taking the medication. 

Our nail doctor in Gainesville, FL recommends this treatment. The PinPointe Laser treatment has the highest cure rate in the market. It has no side effects and no recovery period. As a result, you can go about your daily activities right after the treatment. Also, it is not painful.
