Read below: You can try listerine to the toenail, soaks in dilute solutions of clorox, vinegar soaks or have the toenail removed or laser removal. See your podiatrist if you cannot clear this on your own.

Lasers - 1 poss.: Laser treatment of fungal toenail infection has been shown to be effective at least in the short run. Long-term studies are lacking. It is possible for the fungus to come back and reinfect laser treated toenails. Most laser treatments are not covered by health insurance.
