Tineacide Antifungal Cream Review

Upon buying the package, you will immediately notice the green packaging making it one of those antifungal creams you would think of that can help heal fungal infection naturally. It comes with bonus nail clippers that would work well with the maintenance of the fungal infection.

It claims to treat the infection 100% guaranteed. A dedicated research proved some of the facts about Tineacide Antifungal cream.

Tineacide Antifungal Cream Ingredients

The treatment is consisted of the following ingredients. They are basically distinguished into two parts, – the active and the inactive ingredients:

  • Undecylenic acid 10%

Inactive Ingredients

Dosage

Apply twice daily with a cotton swab on the affected area. The clippers provided will help you minimize the length of the nails. As you clip around the parts of the nails, it is advised to pull the skin back as far as possible to apply the treatment.

Possible Side-Effects

There is no side effect in using the cream aside from the burning sensation on the skin when applied, but this is due to the acid working on the skin.

Price

A cream bottle costs $18.99 with free shipping for bulk buyers.

Tineacide Antifungal Cream Guarantee

There is no money back guarantee. There is no indication of anything hidden, but that it works on almost any fungal infection on foot skin area and do not work on nails.

Conclusion

Tineacide Antifungal Cream is a good product to use. It burns and works all through the bottom of the skin area when applied. For a price of $18.99 per package, its downside is that it only works on the skin area.

Hope For Nails Review

HOPE FOR NAILS is a product which promises to boost the body’s immunity and defenses against the fungus, which causes nail infections.  HOPE FOR NAILS states there is a genetic link between susceptibility to nail infections and aims to boost the immune system to fight such infections.

The packaging is a white bottle with green lettering, and the product was created by Dr. Jeffrey Kleis through a combination of natural ingredients. HOPE FOR NAILS sounds intriguing so I set about researching more into this product.

Ingredients

HOPE FOR NAILS is proudly made in the USA and contains all natural ingredients and is nontoxic.

It contains:

  • Red Algae
  • Lemon grass (leaf)
  • Pau D’Arco (bark)
  • Oregano lead Extract
  • Dill Seed Extract
  •  Rosemary (leaf)
  • L-Glutamine

The benefits of an all-natural ingredient list are that no liver damage can be caused by these ingredients, unlike other stronger medications taken to cure fungus. However, the website could not give a breakdown of what each of the natural ingredients would do to boost the immune system and help the body fight off a fungus so I was a little unclear as to what each ingredients purpose was.

Dosage

Each bottle contains 30 capsules and it is recommended that one capsule be taken daily. The website also states that for optimum results HOPE FOR NAILS should be taken for a minimum of four months and ideally for eight months, which is the time for the nails to grow completely out.

Price

One bottle of HOPE FOR NAILS costs $19.95 and at the moment the website is offering a ‘buy three and get one free’ deal, which would save buyers $19.95 for a four month supply, the minimum time frame given for optimum results.  At this price it would cost $59.85 for a four month supply or $119.70 for the recommended eight month supply.  The website also offers free shipping to domestic addresses.

Guarantee

The company does not offer refunds on any items which have been opened or used due to healthy code regulations.

Closing Comments

While I found HOPE FOR NAILS on this website I could not find it listed for sale anywhere else on the internet.  I could not find any reviews, which is a concern.  HOPE FOR NAILS sounds like a product with a lot of potential but I would be hesitant to recommend HOPE FOR NAILS given that key information seems to be missing from the website.

Forces Of Nature Nail Fungus No More Review

The product Nail Fungus No More was created by Forces of Nature, which also created a large number of other products that contain very similar ingredients. The main ingredients are Clove Oil and Geranium.

This is an all-natural product that claims to be safe and provides no side effects. Overall, this is a very expensive treatment with the huge price tag of $69.95. The bottle contains 33 ml. While they do have a smaller bottle containing 11 ml, this is only enough to be considered a trial offer in our book. The small bottle does not contain nearly enough treatment to be effective or even get you to the point where the product is starting to work.

The method of use is a little curious to us. The product is intended to be dropped on your nail and then rubbed in. While this may seem like a good way to apply a treatment, nail fungus spreads very easily from nail to nail. This means that you are risking infecting a healthy nail while treating the affected nail.

While the bottle doesn’t specifically say so, if you use this product make sure to wash your hands thoroughly after use to prevent the spread of the nail fungus.

This product comes in two different strengths: regular strength and extra strength. Unfortunately, we found their customer service is lacking in knowledge about their own product. They were not able to answer common questions such as how the product is supposed to be used. We feel that the lack of information from customer service is because they support the wide variety of products the company offers. Because of the large number of products offered, customer service cannot possibly have the level of expertise that an effective, branded company is able to provide.

Nail Fungus No More Value

We feel that this product is extremely expensive for a product that is considered an all-natural blend. While they do offer a smaller bottle for a lot less money, we found that quantity of the product is completely ineffective when it comes to treating nail fungus. While this product does offer some potential in other areas, there are many other products that are more effective and come at a much better price.

Our Conclusion

We did find that this product worked for some people but most reported that it was at the beginning of an infection. We found that the ingredients are not strong enough to make it effective for everyone, or effective for an established infection. The company should add more effective anti-fungal ingredients and reduce the price considerably. If they were to do this, we would offer them a much better rating. This product is among the most expensive on the market.

Nail Fungus – Proximal Subungual Onychomycosis

Proximal Subungual Onychomycosis

This one of the least common nail fungi in people who have healthy immune systems, but it is found very frequently in those whose immune system is compromised. Proximal subungual onychomycosis is different from most fungal infections of the nail because this form begins at the cuticle and works its way toward the tip of the nail.

Nail Fungus - Proximal Subungual OnychomycosisJust like other nail fungus infections, this fungus causes the nail to become disfigured. However, the disfigurement starts at the cuticle and works its way from there. This type of fungal infection is more likely to affect the nail bed early in the infection, which causes the nail to develop ridges and bumps. Because the infection starts at the cuticle, the nail may become detached and fall off, which can expose the nail bed to more significant infection.

Most cases of proximal subungual onychomycosis are caused by the same dermatophyte as distal subungual onychomycosis. This type of infection is not only caused by a fungus, but it can also be caused by a mold as well. Another symptom that is characteristic of this specific type of fungal infection is swelling and redness around the nail. This area can become extremely swollen and can start to ooze puss. Typically, this is more common in infections caused by molds than it is fungus.

Because of the strange characteristics of this specific fungal infection, it is commonly misdiagnosed as a bacterial infection. Antibiotics do not have the ability to kill fungi so the antibiotics given will not work to get rid of the infection. To properly destroy molds, yeasts, and dermatophytes an anti-fungal medication must be used.

This type of fungal infection typically occurs in those with an unhealthy immune system. It is most common in those with HIV. This is so common, that if a patient is present with this type of fungal infection and no other symptom, a doctor will likely request a test for HIV.

It is important to note that just because you have a diagnosis of proximal subungual onychomycosis, does not mean you will receive a diagnosis of HIV.

LamisilNail Fungus - Proximal Subungual Onychomycosis

The only method of treating proximal subungual onychomycosis is to take an anti-fungal medication, typically given in pill form. If the infection is determined to be caused by dermatophytes, trichophyton rubrum, or trichophyton mentagrophytes, your doctor might prescribe Lamisil. The typical dose for Lamisil is one 250 mg pill per day for 6 weeks if the infection affects the fingernail. If the infection affects the toenail, the treatment is typically one 250 mg pill per day for 12 weeks.

Itraconazole or Sporanox

Another type of treatment that is commonly used is Itraconazole, or Sporanox. This treatment is used when the type of fungus is unknown. This is because it is effective against almost all fungal infections. This treatment is typically more expensive than other medications, but it works great because it is a broad-spectrum antifungal.

Fluconazole

Fluconazole, which is also known as Diflucan, is not used as often but is effective in treating proximal subungual onychomycosis. This medication does stop the growth of the fungus, but it does not kill existing fungus. This makes other medications more effective in getting rid of the fungus.

Overall, Diflucan is known to slow down or stop the growth of the infection so that the body can take care of the infection. For someone who is immune deficient or who has a weakened immune system, this is not a great option, as they are not as able to fight off an infection.

Is This Product Safe?

Because Fungoid Tincture has a mild active ingredient, it has no known side effects. You may experience redness, itching or swelling at the site of application.

Closing Comments

Fungoid Tincture is a topical solution used in the treatment of Athlete’s Foot and Ringworm. Because this product has a mild active ingredient, it may be necessary to take the product for three or more months for maximum effect. With a price of $31.69 for a one month supply with no money-back guarantee, Fungoid Tincture may be a pricey solution.

Gyms Are a Breeding Ground for Nail Fungus Infections

The Danger of Gyms for Nail Fungus

People go to the gym to become healthier and build muscle. They want to lose weight, feel that adrenaline rush, and feel better about themselves. It rarely crosses anyone’s mind that the gym and public pool are a breeding ground for fungus and nail fungus infections to spread.

So, why are they the perfect place? Most gyms and public pools have a place to change. This place may be a dressing room, a locker room equipped with a shower, or an open place to rinse off after your work out. These places have tile floors to make cleanup easier. However, grout is the perfect place for fungus to breed.

When you walk barefoot over this grout, you are risking having the spores from other people’s fungal infections stick to your feet and slowly work their way up under your nails. It is terrible that one of the places that you go to take better care of yourself and to feel better about yourself can lead to you developing an infection, no matter how hard the gym works to keep the shower floors clean.

How To Prevent Toenail Fungal Infections

Gyms Are a Breeding Ground for Nail Fungus InfectionsThe place to start when you are trying to prevent toenail fungal infections is what you wear on your feet. Gym shoes that are older and worn can be a breeding ground for all kinds of bacteria and fungus by themselves. This means that if you do get fungal spores on your feet, they are sure to breed in your shoes and become an out of control fungal infection in no time.

It is advisable, for the gym and in your everyday life, to have at least two pair of shoes. Never wear the same pair of shoes two days in a row. This allows one pair to dry out between uses so that you are not breeding fungus that is just waiting to attack your feet. Either way, make sure that your feet stay dry. Wear clean, breathable, cotton socks so that moisture is wicked away.

If you still feel at risk, use an anti-fungal spray in your shoes between uses and allow them to dry completely before you put them back to help prevent contamination.

If you use the shower at your local gym, do not do so barefoot. Rubber flip-flops, shower shoes, or water shoes are a great way to ensure that you are not exposed. As with your other shoes, make sure that these shoes are completely dry before you put them back on. You may also want to spray them with anti-fungal spray between uses (after they dry) to ensure that any fungal spores that you pick up from the shower floor are eliminated before you wear them again. Another option is to place them in your clothes dryer and use high enough heat to kill the fungal spores.

What To Do In Case Of InfectionGyms Are a Breeding Ground for Nail Fungus Infections

When you first notice any sign of infection, it is important to begin treatment. This means that you need to catch it when your toenail begins to change color, or looks different than it normally does. It is important to catch it before your nails become brittle or start to get thick.

If caught early, start soaking your toes in a vinegar solution twice daily for about 20 minutes. This solution should consist of 1 part vinegar to 1 part water. Continue this treatment until the affected toenails have cleared up.

Vinegar gets rid of the infection by changing the pH of the growing environment, which makes the nail uninhabitable to the fungus.

The fungus will then quit breeding, and when the existing spores die off, the fungus should be completely gone.

The choice between apple cider vinegar and white vinegar is up to you. Both are shown to work, so whichever you have on hand will work great.
