Has anyone used henna to treat toenail fungus?

Question

If so, does it work? Thanks!

Answer 1

I can't say that I have.

I've read and heard that grapefriut seed oil works.

Answer 2

Answer 3

I would try tea tree oil and oregano oil first.  Both are anti-fungal.

Answer 4

I have not, but I have heard tea tree oil is very good for that.

Answer 5

No, I've not tried henna. What I have used in the past (fingernail fungus ,when I wore acrylic nails) is Tea Tree Oil. It was awesome, it was a long time ago so, I cannot remember  exactly how long it actually took to clear it up. As far as I can remember it cleared it up in a reasonable amount of time. I've found Tea Tree Oil at Wal-Mart and at health food stores, sometimes at drugstores like Walgreen's. TTO has many uses:

Nail Fungus

Minor cuts

Dandruff

Bug bites

Dry skin

If you do a search on line for Tea Tree Oil you will find a treasure trove of information.

Good-Luck, I hope this helps.

Answer 6

No, never heard of this, however I have tried to remedies that have worked for me. Apparently the prescription medicine taken for this is very toxic to the body.

Try soaking your feet every single night for 1/2 hour in pure vinegar. Then before bed, put a bit of tea tree oil on the infected toenail. May take 6 months, but it's better than going to a doc and getting pills.
