Natural Remedies for Damaged Toenails
1. Baking Soda
Baking soda has antifungal properties. You can make a paste by mixing it with water and applying it directly to the affected nails. Another option is adding baking soda to a warm foot bath.
2. Tea Tree Oil
Tea tree oil is well known for its antifungal, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory effects. Apply a few drops directly to the affected area twice daily until symptoms improve.
3. Oregano Essential Oil
Oregano (Origanum vulgare) produces a powerful essential oil that can irritate the skin if used undiluted. Mix it with a carrier oil such as olive oil before applying. Leave it on the nail for at least 15 minutes, then wipe away any residue.
