Additional Tips for Success
Keep Your Nails Dry: Moist environments encourage fungal growth, so always dry your nails thoroughly after treatment.
Trim and File Your Nails: Regularly trimming the affected nail reduces the fungal load and allows the treatment to penetrate deeper.
Be Consistent: Natural remedies take time and consistent application to show results.
When to Consult a Doctor
If the infection doesn’t improve after a few weeks or if it spreads, seek medical advice. Severe fungal infections may require prescription treatments.
