1) yes to number 1: 2) I thought the purpose of the laser treatment was to kill the fungus on the tonsils. Creams on nails are not very successful as thy have a hard time penetrating the nail. Oral lamisil (terbinafine) is still the most effective treatment for toenails in my opinoin.

Yes and no: To resolve a athlete's foot infection an anti-fungal cream should be use for a full month. Some patients are prone to reinfections and may use these products once a week preventatively. Doctors that use lasers to treat fungus of the nails often will suggest also using a topical product but I have not seen literature to prove that a combination improves the outcome.
