Bleach Testimonials for Killing Toenail Fungus
Following are real testimonials that I have received:
"I saw your site and hope that I am sending this note to the right email address - it wasn't clear on the site how to contact you.
"I used Bleach Water for several months, my doctor told me to so I soaked my feet 10 minutes in the morning and 10 minutes at night. The KEY is to THOROUGHLY WASH THEM WITH SOAP AND WATER AFTER SOAKING. Otherwise your skin will get red and itchy. I just read somewhere that the old Clorox bleach bottles used to have on their label "Use 1 Table Spoon of bleach in a gallon of water to soak feet as an effective treatment for athletes foot" but the FDA made them remove it - probably because it really worked and a lot of pharmaceutical money was being lost.
"I would try a Tablespoon per gallon as suggested. When I used the bleach, the doctor also had me on Nizoral - after several months on Nizoral, I developed a very large cyst on my ovary that went away as soon as I stopped taking it. Although my fungus cleared up, I always suspected that it was my twice-a-day bleaching that did the trick, not the medicine (I just can't prove it.) However, my husband is now bleaching his infected nails and we will soon be able to let you know.
"I do know that my cat had fleas and passed them on to me. The bites were on my knee and itched so bad for several weeks that I couldn't take it anymore so I put about 1/4 inch of very warm water in the tub, poured in a little bleach, and knelt down with my knee in the bleach water (on a soft sponge for a cushion) and the flea bites were cured practically overnight (PLEASE NOTE THAT AGAIN I WASHED IT THOROUGHLY AFTERWARD WITH SOAP AND WATER).
"Also, my husband has a bad case of skin fungus on his leg and knee - after one treatment of taking a washcloth and sponging the bleach water over it for about 10 minutes, it is almost completely cured (AND ONE MORE TIME, LET ME ADD THAT AFTER HE USED THE BLEACH, HE THOROUGHLY WASHED IT WITH SOAP AND WATER TO PREVENT IRRITATION.)
Thanks, "

Sir,
I was able to rid myself of toenail fungus by filing the yellowed nail down to paper thin thickness - to the point where I was not quite drawing blood and applying bleach.
This was my method: I showered taking care to clean the nail (after the filing) including some light brushing - or as much as I could stand. After I stepped out of the shower, and while the nail was still moist, I applied undiluted bleach using a Q-Tip to swab the nail surface. I put on my socks without rinsing off the bleach and went about the day. I did this for about three or four consecutive days.
It was not painful at all.
I had the toenail fungus for about 35 years but now I'm rid of it.
I have a healthy looking nail now.

I was just looking at your website re: home remedies for toenail fungus, and noted you were uncertain as to the dilution of bleach for safe use. While I haven't tried this, I do know that in wound care in the medical arena, there is a bleach/water/boric acid solution called Dakin's solution, which is 1 part bleach to 10 parts water. (I'm not sure how much Boric acid is included). It is used daily to irrigate wounds and help reduce infection. However, bleach and water would have to be prepared about every 2-3 days, as it is unstable, and the chlorine will evaporate. Careful observation of the skin and toe is indicated.
That same concentration is used in cleaning up blood spills to avoid passing along the nastier illnesses (HIV, hepatitis).

I refuse to get on that Lamisil,so a friend told me to put ajax or clorox. You make a paste of it,and leave it on for 5 minutes,once a day works......................it lightens the color,and you know bleach kills evrything, so it has worked for me

Geo: After 36 days of using pure Clorox the fungus on my finger is dried up. I still keep putting it on once a day just to make sure the fungus don't return. It will take sometime for the finger nail to grow out. I hope that goes O.K. You must use extreme caution when using pure Clorox. Don't inhale it will burn your lungs, don't get it on fabric. Rinse it off your skin and mails after about 3-4 min. that's all it takes.

my dermatoligist told me the correct mix for clorox is one part clorox and 3 parts water.

Hello. My name is Lisa. I do not know how recent this web info is, but I'd like to share something concerning toenail fungus. I visited my doctor yesterday and one thing I asked her about was toenail fungus. She told me I'd be unable to take oral prescription for the fungus due to it being metobolized, or broken down in the liver. I also take seizure med and birth control, which are also broken down in the liver, so I'm limited to what meds I can take for certain ailments.
However she said she just read an article in a medical home journal indicating that a solution of 1 capful of bleach mixed with 2-3 cups of water - soak 15 min 2x per day would clear it up. She said it may take a few months - 6 months at the most to clear up. I can't remember the approximate time she told me. She said that after a while the toenail would probably turn white but not to worry because it would eventually clear up.
She also suggested the Vicks Vapo Rub solution.
