I do not want to take medication for a toe fungus. my big toe fungus is not that bad but it is slightly discolored ..i'd like to stop it.. is there anything i can take as a home product that can get rid of it or certainly help it?

The best is to wear sandals with no socks for several months. Fungus hates fresh air. I advise all my patients with this to give it a try. If they doubt me I suggest treating one foot with fungicide and wear Jesus shoes on the other (no sock). Which ever works do same with other foot.
