Garlic: A Natural Remedy for Fungal Foot Infections

Making the Paste: Crush a few cloves of garlic to form a paste. You can add a few drops of olive oil to make the mixture easier to apply.

Application: Apply the garlic paste directly to the affected area. It’s important to clean and dry your foot thoroughly before application to ensure the garlic can do its work effectively.

Duration: Leave the paste on for about 20-30 minutes, then wash it off with warm water. Apply twice daily until you see improvement.

2. Garlic Foot Soak:

Preparing the Soak: Add a few crushed garlic cloves to a basin of warm water.

Soaking: Soak your feet in the garlic-infused water for around 20-30 minutes. This not only helps in reducing the fungus but also soothes itchy and irritated skin.

Frequency: Repeat daily for the best results.

Tips for Success
Test for Sensitivity: Garlic can be quite strong, and direct application may cause irritation for some people. It’s a good idea to test the garlic on a small area of skin first to see how it reacts.

Keep Dry: Fungi thrive in moist environments, so keep your feet as dry as possible to prevent the infection from spreading or worsening.

Consistency is Key: Natural remedies like garlic work best when used consistently as part of a daily routine.
