Understand the common treatment methods. There are a number of different treatment methods and which your doctor prescribes will depend largely on the state of your infection and other circumstances.[1][2] Understand that most of these methods take weeks to show improvement and that you will have to be fastidious about following the regimen recommended by your doctor.
- Topical medications may be prescribed in certain cases. These are creams and lotions which you will apply as your doctor sees fit. Disinfect nails and apply Canesten cream twice daily, for as many months it takes. It is a slow treat, but effective.
- Oral medications are also commonly used to fight fungal infections. There are a variety of drugs available but many can cause health complications for those with certain health conditions, so be sure that your doctor is aware of your medical history.
- Antifungal lacquer is occasionally used to combat these infections. Placed on the nail like nail polish, this can be an easy way to solve the problem but requires a prescription.

Remove excess nail. For toenails that have advanced fungus underneath that is growing and lifting the nail up off its bed, soak the foot (or feet) with any affected toes for 20-30 minutes in warm water. Then, begin trimming the nail. You will be surprised to find that your nail is no longer attached to your toe in the places where the fungus has invaded beneath the nail––this is normal even if worrying. Simply cut away all of this unattached nail and scrape off the thick, flaky fungus matter. Remove as much of the abnormal looking stuff as possible. Push the cuticles back. It is vital from this point on to be consistent in your care.
- Never tear off toenails with your fingers. Always use a clean nail clipper or long-handled nail scissors. Trimming after bathing is often the best time, as the nails are at their softest.
- If there is any pain involved, do not do this yourself. See your doctor or podiatrist. Proper removal can help to ensure the regrowth of a healthy nail rather than a deformed one.
