Certainly do! Even recommended by my chiropodist. Takes a long time but much cheaper than stuff you buy from pharmacy!

Very interesting!

My podiatrist recommended tea tree oil which is far healthier than trysol fungicide for nails but also takes longer. So I have been using that oil for a few weeks.

I have yet another chest infection, so I might try this. I don’t love the smell of vicks but am willing to give it a whirl. Thank you for sharing.
