Toenail Fungus Treatment using Saprox
Saprox Natural Antifungal Mud has shown that it eradicates skin fungus. I had my doubts that it could work with tinea unguim (toenail fungus).
Toenail fungus is tough to treat leading many people to take a liver toxic drug: Lamisil.
Some photos of before, during and after treatment of 2 patients using only Saprox for the treatment of toenail fungus:

Left Photo: mild case of Tinea unguim beginning at the nail's edge - where most fungus begins due to either a moist alkaline environment OR trauma. Trauma causes the nail bed to lift thereby allowing the critters to crawl under the nail and set up shop.
Bottom Photo: mild case of Tinea unguim treated successfully using Saprox.

A more severe case of toenail fungus treated with only Saprox:

Left Photo: taken at 10 days into the treatment. Notice the clearing at the base of the nail. This suggests that the Saprox treatments is working.
Bottom Photo: Taken at 20 days into the treatment. Notice the further clearing at the base of the nail. Also notice that the skin area around the nail is becoming healthier.

Toenail showing fresh application of Saprox:
Application:
After bathing or showering, dry nail well. A warm nail is more permeable to the sulfur-containing mud found in Saprox - this is why I suggest after bathing.
Put just enough Saprox on to cover the nail(s) well. Push Saprox under the nail and around the nail bed.
Saprox dries in about 15 minutes. You may wash it off at this time or leave it on all day. I recommend leaving it on all day as it keeps the area dry preventing warm moisture from feeding the fungus.
Then at the end of the day, remove your socks, wash feet and nail. Dry and reapply. Go watch TV or sleep.
Recommend that you place some kleenex or toilet paper around the affected nails containing Saprox as this keeps it from touching your socks. Then put on your socks. Or you may walk around your home barefoot.

The use of sulfur in dermatology.

Sulfur has antifungal, antibacterial, and keratolytic activity. In the past, its use was widespread in dermatological disorders such as acne vulgaris, rosacea, seborrheic dermatitis, dandruff, pityriasis versicolor, scabies, and warts. Adverse events associated with topically applied sulfur are rare and mainly involve mild application site reactions. Sulfur, used alone or in combination with agents such as sodium sulfacetamide or salicylic acid, has demonstrated efficacy in the treatment of many dermatological conditions.

can I use saprox mud on my toenails during pregnancy? Also, will this speed the process while using the beer soak? (I'm only using vinegar and acidaphylis - since I'm pregnant)
saprox is simply a mud so i do not see a reason why you could not use saprox on your nails during pregnancy. it is a 100% natural product containing only sulfur mud.
do you ever get your feet dirty?! if so, you may use saprox! :)
in health,
ben
does saprox need to be refrigerated?
saprox does not need to be in the fridge.
we do have one in our fridge as it feels good to put it on cold when your feet are hot and itchy - but this is not required.
