“We’re at the beach Patricia, take your shoes off!” - I nervously laughed and replied “They are sensitive, I don’t like the hot sand”...
Little did she know that was a lie.
After years of living on the coast where sandals are the norm, the embarrassment of my toenail fungus became unbearable.
Each summer I would dread the moment I had to expose my unsightly toenails at the beach…
Despite trying countless treatments and home remedies, nothing seemed to work. The stubborn fungus just kept coming back, and I started to believe I was stuck with it for life.
In desperation, I turned to every solution I could find, from over-the-counter treatments to DIY vinegar soaks. However, most of the products I came across contained harsh chemicals that left my skin dry and irritated, while the home remedies were simply ineffective.
Feeling increasingly frustrated and hopeless, I posted on a health forum asking if anyone had any recommendations.
