I've had this on one of my feet forever. It's always itching and I get huge splits in the skin on my heels and where my toes join my feet making it hard to walk. If I use antifungal cream everyday without fail it keeps it under control but if I lapse it comes back.

I can't tolerate the oral antifungal tablets which are supposed to have the best chance of curing it.

Any killer have remedies?

Have you tried pissing on your feet when you take a shower. Piss contains urea salts ammonia like another user mentioned. This combined with continuously treating your shoes and tossing them and getting new ones regularly for a while is how i got rid of mine.

Get a spray bottle and mix 50% vinegar and ammonia. Spray and let dry. Mint based foot powder will prevent further itching. Unravel cotton balls (they are just rolled up strips of cotton) and wrap your toes. Change your socks. Clean your shoes.

I use vinegar and ammonia when washing my clothes as a fabric softener and sanitizer.

For some reason I recall something about urine having antifungal qualities.

Never workd for me. Tolnaftate powder worked best for me, found an ubscenhted one that was way better than major brands. Read Amazon reviews.

I saw an article a few days ago about using borax and water to soak your feet. Also, I've read about using borax and hydrogen peroxide. The peroxide might enhance the activity of the borax.

I haven't tried either one.

Not from experience: Oil of Oregano, cotton socks. I'm currently trying Oreganol for what seems to be a toenail fungus. So far, so good. 3 days.
