The black stain was because the DMSO carried dye from my socks into the skin.
SSKI has very little stain, and it goes away fairly quickly.

  Atomidine is a reduced form of iodine. No stain.

    I am trying to figure out how to keep using it without staining my skin.
  Why not a foot bath with iodine and DMSO? After the foot bath dry off before 
wearing socks.
  I tried a foot bath with some black walnut extracted with 100 proof vodka. I 
had brown toenails but they did not effect my socks.
  Still have the toenail fungus as continual re-infection seems to be 
happening. So it is more like a control rather than a cure.
