Toenail fungus can be treated with various home remedies and medications, but there is no instant cure for it. Some of the natural remedies that can help to eliminate toenail fungus include:

• Vicks VapoRub: It contains thymol, menthol, camphor, and oil of eucalyptus, all of which may help get rid of nail fungus.

• Tea tree oil: It has antifungal properties and can be applied directly to the affected nail.

• Garlic: It has antifungal properties and can be applied topically or taken orally.

• Apple cider vinegar: It has antimicrobial properties, but more research is needed on its actual effect on toenail fungus. If you want to give vinegar a try, soak the affected foot in one part vinegar to two parts warm water for up to 20 minutes daily.

• Hydrogen peroxide: It can kill the fungus that grows on toenails. You can use it by soaking your feet in a solution of hydrogen peroxide and water.

However, these remedies may take several months to produce significant improvements, and even if they work, repeat infections are common. If you want to get rid of toenail fungus quickly, the best thing to do is to see a doctor for prescription medication such as fluconazole (Diflucan) .
