Hello tlc....I hope it is proper to use other names in this forum. Walt Stoll M.D. suggests using plain old cheap white vinegar applied morning and night to the infected nail. It stops the fungus from spreading. Check out his website and you will find the info you need. It is inexpensive and works but it will take the time for the nail to completely grow out about, six months...and no side effects from drugs. Be patient and consistent for you can't miss one application.

Good luck.
