How to remove and get rid of foot fungus - How to cure it

Running through the morning dew

Anyone who has ever had foot fungus knows how unpleasant it is - itching, burning. My friend and I once returned from vacation with such a sore. Probably caught it on the beach. We went to the doctor together, and we were prescribed the same treatment. Only the medications helped my friend; her fungus began to go away, but for some reason I recovered very slowly. All this happened in the summer, and for the weekend my friend and I went to the countryside, to the countryside. It was there that I managed to finally get rid of the fungus. The owner of our house, from whom we rented a veranda, recommended an old folk remedy that can help quickly remove fungus.

Half an hour a day in the morning, run barefoot through the morning dew. After the procedure, your feet should dry on their own. At night, rub potato juice into your feet or wipe them with a slice of raw potato.

At first I didn’t believe it: how could ordinary water remove fungus? But I decided to try. Every morning in the village I organized such jogging for myself, and my friend was with me for company. At first it was unpleasant: it was early in the morning, I wanted to sleep and it was cold. And then we really liked it - a boost of energy for the whole day.

By the fall, everything was fine with me.

Euphorbia against fungus

I go to the bathhouse every week - I can’t live without it, I’m so used to it! And there were never any problems, only health benefits. And then I noticed that my feet began to itch and were somehow sweating between my toes. I complained to my daughter-in-law, and she said: “It’s a fungus, you shouldn’t go to public baths, otherwise you’ll catch it.” She scolded me, but didn’t tell me what to do.

Let me call my friends. And everyone got along as one: they say, curing the fungus is very difficult and expensive. Moreover, they named a doctor who had never been in our clinic. I went to the pharmacy and thought about buying some ointment. Indeed, it turned out to be very expensive. But it was not in vain that I went, I got into a conversation with a woman at the pharmacy, who advised me how to cure the fungus - to treat myself with milkweed herb. She even sold me this grass inexpensively and told me to prepare a decoction from it and soar my feet in it. On her advice

I prepared a stronger decoction (3-5 tablespoons per liter of water), poured it hot into a bowl, diluted it with water and put my feet in it, wrapped my feet in a warm blanket on top and sat there until the decoction cooled down.

After the second procedure, I noticed that my legs felt better: they no longer itch as much and hardly sweat. And soon everything went away completely. It turns out that the fungus is not as terrible as it is painted?! Although, maybe I caught it in time and didn’t start the disease. But I still go to the bathhouse, despite my daughter-in-law’s protests. Moreover, now I know what to do and how to get rid of foot fungus.

Removed the fungus with regular salt

Getting rid of foot fungus is not easy, but it is possible. You just need to be patient and, in parallel with the treatment, disinfect your shoes, constantly boil your socks, wash and iron your bedding more often. I spent a lot of money on medicines for fungus, tried a lot of folk remedies, but ordinary salt helped me.

For a liter of distilled water (you can boil regular water twice) take 100 g of table salt. At night, warm up this solution slightly, soak cotton balls (lumps) in it and insert between your fingers. Next, you will need about a meter of gauze for each leg. It is necessary to moisten gauze, folded in the form of a wide bandage, in a saline solution, and then wrap it around the entire foot, from toes to heels. Then take another wide bandage and bandage your feet, and put on clean socks on top. And so 10-12 times.

On the day, the upper bandages are rolled up, the lower ones are soaked in saline solution, and new cotton balls are made each time.

The skin after such treatment is very flaky. After 10 days, I repeated this course, although according to the recipe it was possible not to do this. And so I cured the fungus!

Soda will help against fungus

I don’t know how it happened that I caught a fungal foot infection. I still can’t understand where and under what circumstances I could have become infected. The only sin I have is going to the bathhouse, because I go to take a steam bath every week. Now you can get rid of this infection; every pharmacy sells fungal remedies, but I can’t afford them, they are very expensive. How to cure fungus? One of my friends advised me to try a folk remedy first, saying that if it doesn’t help, then you’ll waste your money. Very simple treatment:

For 10 days in a row, make soda foot baths from very cold water, as cold as you can stand. Pour half a pack of soda into a basin, pour in water so that your feet are completely submerged, and hold your feet for 10-15 minutes. After this, wipe dry, put on cotton socks, into which pour the remaining half a pack of soda. Leave the socks on your feet overnight. So all 10 days.

At first glance, the treatment is very simple, but 7 procedures were enough for me to get rid of the fungus forever. 10 packs of soda for the entire course of treatment. Since it is difficult to insure against such diseases, everyone needs to know how to remove the infection from them.

How to get rid of foot fungus once and for all?

Hello, dear friends!

Oh, I haven’t written here for a long time. Are you tired of waiting?

The fact is that I was on vacation. To be honest, at first I planned to continue writing, but it didn’t work out. My sister came from Odessa: conversations, evening gatherings over tea, this and that, walks around Moscow.

And then they rushed with her to their homeland, “to the village, into the wilderness, to Saratov.” And there. trips to places of childhood, memories. Yes, that's what I'm telling you. You yourself know how it happens.

Thanks to everyone who wrote me letters: they say, where are the new articles, we’re really looking forward to it, don’t abandon us.

I tell you again: until September 14, i.e. Before the birthday of the blog, I WILL write.

And then we'll see. This will depend on your activity, blog traffic, and commentary. I did and continue to do everything that depended on me. But I have already told you and am telling you that writing without receiving feedback from you is the same as an artist performing in front of an empty hall. It's kind of sad.

Today we are starting a conversation about fungal foot diseases.

According to the World Health Organization, every fifth person on our planet suffers from mycosis of the foot.

Perhaps some of you also cannot get rid of this infection, despite the assurances of the manufacturers of antifungal drugs that mycoses of the skin of the feet are a piece of cake in our time. Like: “Smear it for 2 weeks, and the fungus will be over.

But it was not there. The itching and peeling of the skin does not stop. And soon, horror of horrors: yellow stripes appeared on the nails, which slowly but surely moved towards the root of the nail. And you understand what this threatens.

But we will talk about fungal nail infections next time, since this topic needs to be dealt with in detail and thoroughly.

And today’s conversation will be devoted to how to get rid of foot skin fungus once and for all.

What are the types of mycoses of the feet? How does foot fungus grow? Why is his treatment not always successful? What questions should you ask a customer who asks “anything for fungus” and what should the antifungal complex be?

What do you need to know about pathogenic fungi?

Do you know why fungal infections are called mycoses? The word "mycoses" comes from the Greek "mykes", which means mushroom.

Mushrooms are not plants, animals, or protozoans. These are MUSHROOMS.

Unlike plants, they cannot synthesize nutrients on their own, since they do not contain chlorophyll, without which photosynthesis - the formation of organic substances from carbon dioxide and water - is impossible.

Mushrooms feed on READY organic matter.

In general, those mushrooms that cause an unpleasant sore to a person are brothers to the mushrooms that we collect in the forest. They have a very similar structure and reproduce in the same way.

But there is a big difference.

Cap mushrooms (aspen mushrooms, boletus mushrooms, boletus mushrooms, etc.) are needed in nature to participate in the formation of humus, serve as tasty and healthy food for us humans, help nearby plants live, live and gain nutrients. These mushrooms are hard workers.

But, as the famous proverb says, every family has its black sheep.

There are mushrooms that absolutely do not want to work. Everything is like people! 🙂

They much prefer to retire to a warm and humid place and devour what is not intended for them. These are thieving mushrooms that lead a parasitic lifestyle.

Of the variety of fungi, approximately 100 species are pathogenic to humans.

Most pathogenic fungi have the appearance of branching threads - hyphae, consisting of many cells.

The collection of hyphae is called mycelium, or mycelium.

Nutrients necessary for fungal growth are absorbed by the entire surface of the hyphae. The wide network of hyphae provides a large area of ​​absorption. And in order not to go far for food, parasitic fungi grow on a source of nutrient medium, which, in the case of mycoses of the feet, is the stratum corneum of the epidermis and the nail plate. They are based on the protein keratin. This is the main delicacy of parasitic mushrooms.

Mushrooms reproduce, depending on the species, by spores or budding - the separation of cells from the mother.

For complete happiness, mushrooms need 3 conditions:

  • Neutral or slightly alkaline environment.
  • Oxygen.
  • Comfortable temperature.
  • That is why mushrooms have chosen for their existence the superficial layers of the skin of the palms and soles, since here the environment is appropriate, there is enough oxygen, and it is not as hot as in the internal organs.

    And most importantly, there is plenty of food!

    Mycoses develop on the palms and soles because there are no sebaceous glands (there are only sweat glands). And sebum is an integral part of the water-lipid mantle of the skin, which has an acidic reaction, unfavorable for the development of most fungi.

    Fungal spores are extremely stable in the external environment. They can wait for their “finest hour” for months!

    How and where does foot fungus infection occur?

    1. In baths, swimming pools, saunas, where visitors infected with fungus leave such a “gift” on the floor in the form of infected skin flakes.
    2. At a party, where the hospitable hostess helpfully provides “duty” slippers to everyone who enters.
    3. At home, where one of the family members is already the unfortunate owner of a fungal infection, but uses the same towel with the family, washes with them in the same bathroom, walks with them on the same floor, uses the same and the same bedding.
    4. And if in the first two cases it is quite possible to protect yourself from infection by taking appropriate measures (go to a bathhouse, sauna or visit only with your own equipment), then how to isolate a loved one? This is one of the reasons that it is so difficult to get rid of a parasitic fungus that has once settled in a house.

      Who gets mycosis?

      You may have a question: many people go to swimming pools and saunas, visit people and baths, but not everyone gets mycosis of the foot. Why?

      Because in order for it to get into the skin and take root on the human body, certain conditions are needed. It can be:

    5. Excessive sweating.
    6. Skin microtraumas: abrasions, cracks, abrasions.
    7. Vascular diseases of the extremities.
    8. Exchange disorders.
    9. Diabetes.
    10. Immunodeficiency.
    11. The use of certain drugs (antibiotics, corticosteroids, cytostatics).
    12. Parasitic fungi - the culprits of mycoses of the feet - are especially loved by older people, whose metabolic processes are sluggish, and the exfoliation of the stratum corneum of the epidermis is many times slower than in the younger generation. And it is extremely rare that fungi, with the exception of representatives of the genus Candida, infect children.

      By the way, in men, fungal infections of the feet are observed 1.5-2 times more often than in women.

      How does foot fungus develop?

      Under favorable conditions, the pathogenic fungus, once on the skin, produces enzymes (enzymes) - keratinases, which break down the skin protein keratin. The fungus penetrates the surface layers of the skin and begins to grow and branch, forming mycelium, or mycelium. It captures more and more new areas of the skin.

      The cell wall of the fungus contains substances that suppress local cellular immunity. The synthesis of keratinocytes, young epidermal cells, decreases, and the process of desquamation of horny scales from the surface of the skin slows down.

      Depending on what fungus caused the disease, all mycoses of the foot are divided into 4 groups:

    13. Dermatophytes . They are caused by fungi of the genus Trichophyton, Epidermophyton, Microsporum. Both trichophytons and epidermophytons are different. Most often, foot fungus is caused by pathogens such as:
      • Trichophyton rubrum (red trichophyton),
      • Trichophyton interdigitale (interdigital trichophyton),
      • Epidermophyton flocossum.
      • Yeast mycoses of the feet, or candidiasis. They are caused by fungi of the genus Candida (C. albicans, C. tropicalis, etc.).
      • Mold mycoses of the feet. They are caused by fungi of the genus Aspergillus, Penicillum, Fusarium, etc.
      • Combined mycoses of the feet, when yeasts and dermatophytes or dermatophytes and molds meet and become friends. And then the clinical picture is so diverse that it is not easy to make a diagnosis “offhand”.
      • How to recognize mycosis of the feet?

        Fungal infections of the skin of the foot can occur in different ways.

        They describe 4 of its forms (I am not yet taking into account nail damage called onychomycosis):

      • Erased or squamous (from Latin squama - scales). There is slight peeling on the skin of the soles, as well as in one or more spaces between the toes. It may be a slight itch, or it may not be a problem.
      • Squamous-hyperkeratotic. As the name implies, in addition to scales, that is, peeling, the skin of the feet is thickened and hyperemic. Most often, hyperkeratosis is observed in areas experiencing increased pressure: the heel, the anterolateral surfaces of the foot. Painful cracks often form on the heels. There is no itching, or it is insignificant.
      • Intertriginous (from Latin intertrigo - abrasion, irritation). This form is similar to diaper rash. The interdigital folds are affected, most often between the 3rd and 4th, 4th and 5th fingers. The skin here is bright red, swollen, wet, erosions and cracks appear. The person experiences pain, itching, burning.
      • Dyshidrotic . With this form, numerous blisters form on the skin of the soles and interdigital folds. They merge into large bubbles, which burst, resulting in moist pink-red erosions. Patients experience itching and pain when walking.
      • In the last two cases, a bacterial infection is often associated with a fungal infection. This complicates the course of the disease and treatment.

        Why am I telling all this? And so that it is clear to you that

        For different forms of fungal infection, there should be DIFFERENT approaches to treatment.

        Picture of foot fungus depending on the type of pathogen

        With mycosis caused by epidermophyton , dyshidrotic and intertriginous forms are most often observed, and nail damage occurs only in 20-30% of cases. Moreover, fingers 1 and 5 are usually affected.

        In other words, pain, itching, burning, and weeping of the skin make it possible to suspect a disease caused by fungi of the genus Epidermophyton.

        With rubrophytosis, there will almost always be damage to the nails; one or two nails may be affected, or all nails may be affected. There are practically no complaints, or they are minor. Basically, people are concerned about the aesthetic side of things.

        Candidiasis of the skin of the feet is manifested either by areas of red and swollen skin, or by small blisters that burst, and in their place there remain weeping erosions with a whitish coating and clear “scalloped” edges. Often skin candidiasis is accompanied by damage to the fingernails. Plus there may be other manifestations of candidiasis (thrush).

        Why treat athlete's foot?

        Stupid question, isn't it? But I decided to briefly talk about this too, since many people live with fungus for decades and do not consider it necessary to spend money on medications.

        But look at the consequences:

      • Under the influence of fungi and their metabolic products, polyvalent sensitization is formed, that is, an allergy to many substances. This leads to allergic dermatoses for everything, allergic reactions to various medications, hay fever.
      • Atopic dermatitis, eczema and psoriasis are more severe, and their exacerbations are more common.
      • Bacteria penetrate through erosions and cracks in the skin, and all kinds of pyoderma develop. Bacterial complications are characterized by resistance to antibiotics.
      • Plantar warts are 4 times more likely to develop. Why? Because, firstly, the fungi themselves secrete substances that contribute to this, and secondly, they enhance the growth and development of papillomaviruses.
      • The fungal infection will progress, capturing new areas of skin, “eating” the nails.
      • A person becomes a source of infection for others and, above all, for his family.
      • Diagnosis of mycosis of the feet

        Honestly, in my opinion, it is not particularly needed, since the doctor can easily make a diagnosis based on the anamnesis, complaints and clinical picture.

        In addition, most modern drugs have an excellent effect on the main pathogens of fungal foot infections.

        But to clarify the diagnosis, a microscopic examination of skin flakes is carried out, in which a parasitic fungus is found.

        How to treat foot fungus?

        Treatment for foot fungus depends on its form.

        For the squamous form (peeling, slight itching), external antifungal agents are prescribed until the symptoms disappear.

        In the dyshidrotic and intertriginous form (itching, weeping, erosion, cracks, pain), you must first relieve inflammation and then act on the fungus. Therefore, baths with oak bark or potassium permanganate are recommended (2-3 times a day for several days), and after wiping the feet dry, a cream containing a hormone, an antibiotic and an antifungal component (Triderm, Akriderm GK, Pimafucort) is applied to the affected areas.

        After the weeping has passed, we switch to a similar ointment. Remember how we once said when to use cream and when to use ointment?

        If you don't remember, look here.

        Although, in my opinion, it is more effective after a combination drug to switch to modern antifungal agents, for example, Lamisil or Exoderil.

        For severe itching, also recommend oral antihistamines.

        For the squamous-hyperkeratotic form (when the skin is thickened and there are scales), there may be 2 treatment options:

      • Before applying the external agent, make a foot bath with soap and soda, then remove the softened keratinization with scrapers, pumice stones or foot graters, wipe the feet dry, and then apply an antifungal drug.
      • Use external antifungal agents containing urea. I remember that these are Fungoterbin and Mycospor ointment, which used to be included in the kit for the treatment of onychomycosis. What about now? Are there any other antifungal ointments with urea?
      • Well, if mycosis of the smooth skin of the feet recurs, the doctor prescribes systemic therapy.

        The following schemes are possible:

      • Terbinafine for 3-4 weeks 250 mg per day,
      • Itraconazole for 7 days at 200 mg, and then another 1-2 weeks at 100 mg,
      • Fluconazole for 3-4 weeks, 150 mg once a week,
      • Ketoconazole 1-1.5 months, 200 mg once a day.
      • I once again draw your attention to the fact that today we are talking about mycoses of the SKIN. We'll talk about nails next time.

        Questions for a pharmacy buyer

      • Don't walk in his slippers.
      • Provide him with a separate towel, washcloth, nail scissors, and files.
      • Afterwards, treat the bathtub with ordinary cleaning agents, for example, the same Pemolux.
      • Wash floors with water and vinegar. The same goes for the bathroom rug.
      • Healthy adults should periodically wipe the skin of their feet with some antifungal solution or at least the same table vinegar.
      • Wash bed linen at 90 degrees.
      • What should you do to avoid re-infection with the fungus from yourself or your loved one?

      • Having started treatment, you need to treat your shoes daily with an antifungal spray (for example, Mycostop) or wipe your shoes with a 1% chlorhexidine solution and dry them well.
      • Treat scissors and nail files with chlorhexidine or vinegar.
      • Fight sweaty feet: special products + hygiene.
      • If possible, change all socks and tights.
      • Regularly treat the bathtub, floors, rugs as described above.
      • Treatment is carried out until symptoms disappear. The best thing to do is to conduct research to make sure that this infection is over.
      • Next time we will continue talking about fungal infections. We will talk about onychomycosis, that is, fungal infections of the nails. They are also different. You will learn a lot of interesting things! Do not miss!

        And I say goodbye to you.

        How to get rid of toenail fungus?

        Mycosis is a disease that is caused by various groups of fungi. The pathogen begins to penetrate the tissue, causing larger and larger lesions. All this is accompanied by itching, burning, peeling of the skin, and damage to the nail. How to get rid of toenail fungus?

        The disease is distinguished by the complexity and duration of treatment. For this reason, it is easier to prevent it. This can be done taking into account the characteristics of the onset of the disease. The easiest way for infection to enter is through microcracks. They are formed in the presence of calluses and dry skin. For the development of the disease, favorable conditions are required: humidity, insufficient hygiene. Based on this, possible preventive measures can be determined:

      • The fungus can be picked up in public places, and therefore, before going to beaches, swimming pools, baths, you should treat it with special compounds for prevention;
      • You must carry your own slippers with you, and do not wear someone else’s shoes;
      • Elimination of synthetic socks and shoes;
      • Fighting sweating;
      • Maintaining personal hygiene;
      • It is necessary to thoroughly dry your feet and interdigital areas;
      • Socks need to be changed regularly;
      • Preventive treatment of shoes is carried out periodically;
      • Artificial nails are another factor in the appearance of mycosis on the hands.
      • Another reason for the appearance of fungus is taking antibiotics. These potent drugs change the acidity of the feet, and therefore it is easier for mycosis to develop.

        If the disease appears while taking antibiotics, then it is necessary to immediately begin treatment after stopping the use.

        Pros and cons of treatment at home

        How to get rid of fungus on nails? Traditional methods can be used for this. Self-treatment has the following advantages:

        • The composition includes only natural ingredients. A person knows about every component that is included in the medicine. This is especially important for people with sensitive skin;
        • The products have a complex effect. They are able to enhance natural defenses;
        • All components are selected taking into account individual characteristics. If you are allergic to any ingredient, you can exclude it from the medicine;
        • Medicines are quite expensive, while folk remedies use affordable components found in any home.
        • However, such therapy can be fraught. It has the following disadvantages:

        • The disease is caused by various groups of fungal infections. Species differ from each other, including different sensitivity to drugs. Therefore, before therapy, it is necessary to undergo diagnostics, otherwise even long-term treatment may be completely ineffective. This is due to the fact that the fungus can be resistant to the active ingredients used;
        • Not all products are safe. Some of them are extremely aggressive, and therefore can provoke redness and peeling. Some of the drugs can even worsen mycosis;
        • Often prescriptions are not effective, but the person continues treatment. This leads to the fact that mycosis is not treated in a timely manner and continues to actively develop.
        • How to get rid of toenail fungus? To do this, you can combine traditional medicine with medications. This is the most reasonable solution. Medicines can quickly suppress pathogens, and folk remedies stop the development of mycosis.

          The recipe includes an active component that mycosis is “afraid of,” as well as additional ingredients that moisturize the skin and fight germs.

          Treatment with vinegar

          The action of vinegar is based on its ability to create an acidic environment in which the fungus cannot survive. It is important during treatment to comply with the required dosage. A lack of vinegar leads to low efficiency, an excess leads to skin problems. For treatment, table or apple cider vinegar can be used. However, the second type is preferable, as it is more natural. To solve the problem, you can use diluted vinegar essence. Let's look at the most effective recipes using vinegar:

        • Baths. Baths for mycosis have a double effect. The fungus does not tolerate high temperatures, and therefore hot water helps to destroy it. Vinegar complements the action by creating the desired acidic environment. The course lasts 2 weeks. It is necessary to combine baths with other medications. For the procedure, you need to prepare 0.5 liters of vinegar at a concentration of 9%. The bath must be taken for 15 minutes. After the procedure, the feet are not rinsed. Just wipe them thoroughly with a soft towel, and then put on socks made from natural materials. You can infuse dried celandine in a liter of vinegar. After a certain time has passed, the solution is filtered. 5 tables are added to it. spoons of table salt. The infusion is used for baths. The procedure is performed within five minutes. It is recommended to perform baths several times a day;
        • Ointments. A fresh chicken egg is poured with 100 grams of vinegar essence. The composition is infused for 5-7 days until the shell dissolves. Soft butter is added to the solution. The composition is whipped. The consistency should be similar to mayonnaise. The ointment is applied to the nail plate until the symptoms go away. You should be prepared that during treatment the nail will soften and peel off. Dead tissue is removed using a file or scissors. After use, the ointment can be placed in the refrigerator;
        • Other recipes. Vinegar essence is diluted with water in a one to one ratio. Flaxseed flour is added to the composition. The dough is kneaded and then wrapped in plastic. During the procedure, a small piece is pinched off from the dough and applied to the affected area. You can secure it with tape or bandage. The course is 5 days.
        • If vinegar does not give any effect after 1-2 weeks, treatment should be stopped.

          Kill a fungus for 1 RUBLE!

          Iodine has antiseptic and tanning properties, as well as cauterizing ability. It destroys the protein that forms the basis of the fungus. Iodine is recommended to be used every day. To avoid side effects, iodine must be tested first. During this procedure, individual sensitivity and the likelihood of allergic reactions are checked. Iodine can be applied to the crook of the elbow. For testing, it does not need to be used in large quantities; one drop is enough. If no itching or redness appears within 24 hours, the product can be used for treatment.

          The simplest method for destroying mycosis is to apply iodine to each nail one drop at a time using a cotton swab. The procedure is carried out twice a day. It is necessary to completely saturate the nail plate with iodine, since pathogens remain on untreated areas. They will slow down the progress of treatment.

          Medical supplies

          How to get rid of fungus on nails? For this purpose medications are used. However, for them to be effective, two conditions must be met:

        • Preliminary diagnostics, testing of microorganisms for their sensitivity to the active components of drugs;
        • Prescription of medications by a doctor who determines the required medication depending on the degree of the disease, the surface of the lesion, and the type of fungus.

        The course of treatment depends on the stage of mycosis. In the first stages, local remedies can be used. If the fungus is advanced, you will need to supplement them with tablets and antibiotics.

        Your doctor may prescribe the following medications:

        1. Healing varnishes. This is a local therapy drug. The group includes such products as “Canesten”, “Loceryl”. To increase effectiveness, before the procedure, dead tissue and keratinized layers should be removed from the surface. Before applying the varnish, you can first steam it. Baths are used for this. The advantage of varnishes is the rapid relief of symptoms and their penetration deep into tissues. To achieve the desired result, you need to use the product regularly;

Before use, the keratinized layers are removed from the affected surface;
        3. Pills. They are used if mycosis affects more than three fingers. Similar drugs include Itraconazole and Terbinafine. It is worth considering that medications are quite toxic. For this reason, they should only be taken under medical supervision. The tablets promote rapid recovery. They are used in combination with local therapy. Medicines put a lot of stress on the liver. For this reason, to reduce stress, hepatoprotectors should be taken.
        4. Medicines can be used in combination.

          Is it possible to cure fungus quickly?

        5. Stage of the disease;
        6. Extent of lesion;
        7. Degree of neglect;
        8. Selected treatment package.

A comprehensive treatment is prescribed, including local therapy and medications taken orally. The course can be supplemented using traditional methods. They help stop the progression of the disease. The set of measures makes it possible to destroy not only microorganisms, but also their spores, which are the least sensitive to external influences, as quickly as possible.

        How to quickly get rid of foot fungus?

        Fungus is an infectious disease that affects not only the nail plates, but also the skin. This disease brings a lot of discomfort into a person’s life. Constant itching, burning and an unpleasant odor that comes from the feet is only a small part of what a sick person experiences. Therefore, almost everyone who has encountered this disease is wondering how to quickly get rid of fungi on their feet and is it possible? Of course available. And now you will find out how to do this.

        Basic rules for treating foot fungus

        Before we talk about how to get rid of foot fungus quickly, we should talk about the key points in treating this disease. First, you need to purchase a special antifungal disinfectant spray to treat your shoes with. Pathogenic organisms settle on the inner surface of the shoe, and if it is not disinfected, the negative factor will constantly affect the feet, which will contribute to constant relapses of the disease.

        Secondly, you should stock up on clean socks. They need to be changed at least 2 times a day. In this case, dirty socks must be thrown away or treated with some kind of disinfectant solution.

        Thirdly, you need to constantly adhere to a therapeutic diet. It will eliminate favorable microflora for the proliferation of fungi in the body, which will prevent further progression of the disease. To do this, you need to exclude from the diet:

      • sugar;
      • confectionery;
      • Coffee and tea;
      • bread, buns and other flour yeast products;
      • fried foods;
      • alcohol.
      • The main components of the diet for a fungal infection should be fresh vegetables and sour fruits.

        Fourthly, if we talk about how to get rid of skin fungus on the legs, we should note the need to use antifungal drugs. In this case, you need to use not only various creams and ointments, but also oral agents. All medications should be prescribed by a doctor after a thorough examination.

        Fifthly, traditional medicine should be used. In combination with modern antifungal drugs, they help quickly eliminate fungal infections and speed up the recovery process.

        Sixth, treatment of foot fungus should occur within 2-3 weeks after the main symptoms of the disease disappear. This is required in order to consolidate the result and prevent the re-progression of the fungus.

        Modern antifungal drugs

        If we talk about how to treat foot fungus, then we cannot fail to mention the use of special antifungal ointments and gels. Their use helps to quickly eliminate unpleasant symptoms and eliminate pathogens.

        Exoderil cream is considered very effective, which helps to instantly eliminate itching and burning. Its use leads to the destruction of the protective shell of fungi, which provokes their further death.

        Candida cream is also highly effective, but only against fungal infections caused by fungi from the Candida family. It also leads to the destruction of the cell membrane and the death of pathogenic microorganisms.

        There is also another cream that helps quickly eliminate unpleasant symptoms - Nizoral. Its use makes it possible to stop the growth and reproduction of fungi, which leads to their gradual death.

        Among modern antifungal drugs, the following should also be noted:

        All these medications have contraindications and side effects, and therefore their use should only be as prescribed by a doctor.

        Traditional medicine for foot fungus

        How to get rid of foot fungus using traditional methods? Alternative medicine offers us many recipes that can quickly eliminate the unpleasant symptoms of this disease. The most effective of them are foot baths. They can be prepared from different ingredients. For example:

      • You can use sea salt. It should be stirred in warm water (48C-50C) at the rate of 1 tbsp. with a slide for 1 liter of water. You should soak your feet in this saline solution for 10-15 minutes. If you don't have sea salt at home, you can replace it with table salt. Just stir it in an amount of 2 tsp. per 1 liter of water and be sure to add a couple of drops of iodine.
      • You can also use potassium permanganate. You need to make a strong solution from it. You need to dip your limbs in it and keep them in it for at least 20 minutes.
      • In the fight against fungal infection, the use of baking soda is considered effective. A strong solution is also made from it, in which you should keep your feet for 10-15 minutes.
      • Vinegar is also good for fighting foot fungus. It is best to use apple cider vinegar, but if you don’t have it, you can use regular one, but its concentration should not exceed 9%. The foot bath is prepared at the rate of 2 tbsp. vinegar per liter of warm water. The duration of one procedure is 20 minutes.
      • If we talk about how to get rid of nail fungus, the folk remedies described above should be used every day, preferably at night. Before doing a foot bath, the limbs should be washed under running water and laundry soap. After treatment procedures, your feet should be wiped well with a dry towel (do not rinse), and then treated with antifungal ointment prescribed by the doctor and put on clean socks.

        There are other traditional medicines that help quickly get rid of fungal infections. For example:

      • Take clean socks, soak them in vinegar and put them on your washed feet. You should go to bed with wet socks, and in order not to stain the bed, you can wrap cling film on top of them.
      • Every day, lubricate your feet with ointment prepared according to this recipe. Take one fresh egg, place it in a glass jar and fill it with vinegar. Place the jar in a dark place for 3-4 days. During this time, the eggshell should dissolve under the action of acid, and a thin film should form in its place. The film must be removed and the contents of the egg thoroughly mixed with the bite. Next, add butter to the resulting mixture so that the consistency of the mass resembles cream.
      • You can make compresses from alcohol tincture of propolis. You can buy it at the pharmacy or prepare it yourself. To do this, you will need 20 g of crushed propolis, which needs to be filled with 0.5 liters of medical alcohol and placed in a dark place for two weeks. After this time, the tincture should be filtered and stored in the refrigerator. Use as follows: you need to take a bandage, soak it in propolis tincture, wrap it around your leg, wrap it in several layers of cling film on top and put on a clean sock. Apply the compress daily and leave overnight.
      • The question of how you can get rid of foot fungus quickly is best asked to your doctor. But if you decide to use traditional medicine, remember that if there is no positive dynamics within 2-3 weeks of treatment, you will still have to visit a specialist. Otherwise, you may experience serious health problems.
