Bacteria and fungi are both microorganisms that are believed to have been part of life on earth since life began here. But when they get out of hand—that’s when problems begin. And those problems can land on your feet.
Now, your feet are amazing things—they hold you up, take you where you’re going and are key to nearly anything you want to do with your body. So keeping them fit and cared for is really important. And keeping foot fungus at bay is one of the best things you can do for your feet.
Foot fungus is no fun—its not very attractive, but more importantly it can be painful, itchy or sting and lead to other problems.
Some of the symptoms of foot fungus are:
- There are blisters on your feet that itch
- Your feet itch, burn and sting between your toes and on your soles.
- The skin on your feet is raw
- The skin on your feet is peeling and cracking, usually between your toes and soles of feet.
- The skin on your soles or sides of your feet is dry
- Your toenails are discolored, thick or crumbly
- Your toenails are pulling away from the nail bed
What can kill foot fungus fast?
One of the fastest ways to get rid of fungus is through toenail laser treatment. This specifically targets the microorganisms under your nail while leaving the nail intact.
But many natural or home remedies can be quite effective in killing foot fungus. Here are a few:
- Hydrogen peroxide or Hydrogen peroxide with iodine can kill fungus that grows on toenails
- Studies suggest that tea tree oil (Melaleuca alternifolia) may help to kill fungi
- Apple cider vinegar
- Hair dryer and Baking soda (sodium bicarbonate)
- Epsom salt
- Ozonated oils
Soaking feet in plain black tea can also be beneficial in treating toenail or foot fungus, as well as clean socks and shoes. Avoid tight shoes and keep your feet dry and cool. Natural anti-fungal lotions, creams and gels are also beneficial in keeping your feet free from fungus.
