A member asked:

Is there an effective treatment for fungal infection on the toes?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Glenn Aufseeser answered

Foot fungus: You could try a topical antifungal such as lotrimin or naftin (naftifine). If this is unsuccessful, an evaluation by a podiatrist could be helpful.

Dr Ali and another doctor agreed
