Subject: Toenail fungus

Hello to all,
        On the subject of toenail fungus, just had
to post this.  In our local newpaper, Dr. Gott has a
article each day.  For nail fungus, clip the nail as
far back as possible without causing pain, and rub
the Vicks Vaporub (yes, like you use on your chest
and throat for cough and colds) onto the nail and
surrounding skin twice a day.  This may take a
couple of months before results are visible.  But
this does really work.  I have a friend that did
this and could tell a big difference in 2 weeks
time. For fungal infections (athlete's foot, etc.)
or psoriasis, rub a small amount of Vicks onto the
affected area twice a day.  May take up to a week to
clear. I have used it for mosquito bites and poison
ivy rash and it works for this also.
