Listerine For Toenail Fungus

The use of Listerine for toenail fungus is not tested in formal research environment. This fact is not recognized by many people who are claiming success in using this. Listerine has antiseptic property and people believe that if t can kill the bacteria inside the mouth, it can also cure the toenail fungus created by the bacteria. The antiseptic property of Listerine is the one responsible for toenail fungus removal. The effectiveness of the solution is not proven on a research. However, it is one way to get rid of toenail fungal infection. Natural remedies are always reliable and affordable. Even if natural remedies like Listerine are not yet proven to be a good solution, it is worth trying for. It is not harmful anyway. If there are people who are claiming success by merely using this brand of antiseptic mouthwash, nothing will change if you will try this also or not. Think this way: if you will refuse using neither Listerine for toenail fungus removal nor other natural remedies, definitely there would be no good results. But, if you will try using Listerine, whether it does work on you or not, the important thing is that at least you have tried. What if it works? You will gain the benefits.

If there are people claiming success stories using Listerine for toenail fungus removal, there are also people who are opposing this idea. There have been many opposed statements concerning the helpful effects of Listerine mouthwash and its non-effectiveness for toenail fungus removal.

Listerine is an antiseptic mouthwash. It is alcohol-based mouthwash product so it can be an alternative to rubbing alcohol. You have to mix it with warm water and then you can soak your feet in the prepared solution. Since it is alcohol-based, you have to be careful. If you have wounds in your feet, you can feel pain when you try to soak your feet in the solution. If your toenail fungus has totally damaged your nail and has caused injury to your feet, there would be an extra pain when you soak your feet in the Listerine-water solution. You have to do the soaking everyday 20-30 minutes.

If you are really concerned with what are you experiencing from having toenail fungus to having dead nails and smelly feet, you may consult the advice of your foot doctor.
