How to Use It
Prepare the Area:
Wash your feet or hands thoroughly with warm water and soap.
Gently trim and file the infected nail to remove any loose debris.
Mix the Ingredients:
In a small bowl, combine the apple cider vinegar and coconut oil.
Add the tea tree and lavender oils for their antifungal and soothing properties.
Apply the Mixture:
Dip a cotton ball or Q-tip into the mixture.
Apply generously to the infected nail, ensuring the mixture seeps around the edges and under the nail if possible.
Let It Dry:
Allow the solution to air-dry completely before wearing socks or shoes.
Repeat Daily:
Apply the remedy twice a day—once in the morning and once before bed—for consistent results.
Why This Works
Apple Cider Vinegar: Known for its antifungal and acidic properties, it helps create an environment where fungi cannot thrive.
Coconut Oil: Contains natural antifungal compounds like caprylic acid that penetrate the nail bed.
Tea Tree Oil: A proven antifungal agent that kills fungal spores.
Lavender Oil: Reduces inflammation and promotes nail healing.
What to Expect
Patience is key when treating nail fungus naturally. While results vary, many people notice improvement within a few weeks, with complete healing taking a few months.
