Re: Toenail

Pauline . Having worked as a foot health care professional for 12 years. I wont try and diagnose without seeing but I always suggest putting tee tree oil onto toes when there is an issue . It's great stuff . Will clear up anything even though it takes a long while . Your nails will benefit from a daily drop for a week then 3 times a week then twice a week for at least 2 months . Meanwhile go see a qualified chiropodist .

Susan, as a matter of interest, do you mean Tee Tree Essential Oil, and if so, do you use it neat please ?

Re: Toenail

Yes mups neat tea tree oil . A drop on each nail daily for a week. I used it all the time and it clears up infections, fungal infections . After the first week then just say 3 times then always at least once or twice until nails strong and clear . If nails badly infected with fungal infection it could take about 6 months onwards until the nail grows out . As it grows you will see the new nail clear and white

Re: Toenail

Just calling in to say

Be patient it's a long drawn out issue waiting for your new white nails to grow but they will if you use this at least once a week but patience is needed .

Thanks very much Susan.
I knew some essential oils have to be diluted, so that is why I asked.

Cheaper than that in Holland & Barrett, with their offer of 'buy one and get another for a penny' you could have got two for less than you paid:
