Sheila,
I'm having great success using pure gum terpentine on an infected
toenail. I swab it on twice daily and it seems to be working. All of the
pain I had with this has disappeared in less than a week. My nail is
growing out pink near the nail bed.

Brooks Bradley: Re: your post of August 13, 2010, on toenail fungus
treatment using saturated bicarbonate of soda plus DMSO plus a laser
pointer.
Hello Brooks, this sounds very interesting and my husband would like to
try it as he has tried many other methods with little success. Could you
please give us some more background on this unusual protocol?
Specifically, why were you using saturated bicarbonate of soda, and what
is the purpose of the laser pointer light?
Many thanks,
Sheila

Recently, we concluded a brief.....but promising DIY protocol
designed to address toenail fungi colonies. This simple methodology
yielded
surprisingly effective abatement/control of expressing fungal insults
involving
the toenails....most especially the great toe.
The procedure was as follows: (1) a brief, preliminary
foot-soak in
warm tap-water (5 minutes average); (2) Using a solution of saturated
bicarbonate of soda
(70% by volume), blended with 30% by volume (Full Strength
DMSO)...liberally applied via
eye dropper or Q-Tip type applicator [thoroughly
soaked)]....insuring the crease between
the nail wall and the adjoining tissue is filled with liquid, apply
(3) the beam of a conventional laser pointer (or about a 3500 mw LED
bulb)----held "very close" (within
about 1/8th inch of tissue/nail surface).....for a total exposure
time of 10 minutes [approximately] per toenail. Actually this works
out to be about 2.5 minutes per side of
the nail, proper. No harm was caused by the occasional, accidental
touching of the toenail/tissue surfaces. Although our arrangement
was somewhat more elaborate (using 4 units in a single assembly) and
allowed us to reduce the total time to less than 3 minutes per
toenail....time is, probably, less expensive for most----than
assembling the more extensive array.
One interesting phenomenon was that from among a family
of presenting fungal agents (4 varieties, in total) NONE proved
resistant to the control effects of the sodium bicarbonate.
Interestingly, the sodium bicarbonate X DMSO , alone,
yielded quite acceptable control---albeit over a rather extended
period of time (10 to 12 days).....adding
the laser or LED ancillary function, dramatically accelerated the
favorable
response time (5 to 7 days). This protocol was employed 3 times
daily for the first 3 days and twice daily thereafter.
In the worst cases (where the entire under-surface of the nail
was presenting
an insult) the time required for favorable resolution was around 30 days.
This was not the only protocol that proved
effective....but was by far the most COST-EFFECTIVE in both time and
expense. This protocol proved to be simple, effective and
economical.....ideal for the DIY experimenter.
Sincerely, Brooks Bradley.
