Preparation:
Apple Cider Vinegar Bath:
Mix half a cup of apple cider vinegar with warm water in a bowl. Soak your hands or feet in the solution for about 15 minutes. Vinegar helps restore the pH balance of the skin and has an antifungal effect.
Tea Tree Oil:
Apply a few drops of tea tree oil directly to the infected nails. This oil has antifungal and antibacterial properties, which helps fight fungal infections.
Garlic and Olive Oil Paste:
Crush 2-3 cloves of garlic and mix them with 2 tablespoons of olive oil to form a paste. Apply it to your nails and leave it on for 20 minutes. Garlic is known for its powerful antibacterial and antifungal properties.
Baking Soda and Lemon Juice Scrub:
Mix 2 teaspoons of baking soda with a few drops of lemon juice to create a paste. Apply it to your nails, massaging gently for 5 to 10 minutes. Baking soda acts as a natural scrub, removing dead skin cells and helping to fight ringworm.
Serving and Storage Tips:
Consistency is key – these methods must be used daily to see results.
If you notice any skin irritation or allergic reactions, stop using the product immediately.
After each application, it is a good idea to wash your hands or feet with warm water.
Store other ingredients, such as oils or vinegar, in a cool, dry place.
Variations:
You can add a few drops of lavender oil to your apple cider vinegar bath, which has a relaxing effect.
Instead of olive oil, you can use coconut oil, which also has antifungal properties.
