Toenail fungus although unsightly is not a life threatening illness or disease, however the appearance can be quite embarrassing for people and in severe cases the odour can be unpleasant too.

There is a method that utilizes Vicks Vapor Rub to kill the toenail fungus and this article describes the methodology and how to apply it to your toenail.

Soften the Skin And Toenail
You can apply this 20 minutes in the evening. Soak your infected foot in warmish water. This will help to soften the skin around the toenail and the toenail itself. This is done so that Vick Vapor Rub can penetrate the toenail better.

Dry Your Feet
This is an important step, not only when applying this treatment, but anytime you get your feet wet. Fungi love moist, wet, dark places and will thrive in this type of environment. So dry your feet with a clean towel.

Cut & File Your Toenail
Cutting your toenails will enable you to get better access to the fungus. If you use an emery board this will also help to make the toenail porous allowing the Vicks Vapor Rub to penetrate easier.

Apply the Vicks Vapor Rub
Rub the Vicks on the toenail and underneath the cuticle and around the infected toe. The ingredients in Vicks is known to stop fungus growth. Then cover your toe to stop the Vicks from running off the toe.

So if you have 20 minutes to spare every night before bed then this method might work for you. Just know that it may take you up to 9 months before the fungus has been dealt with.
