I'll give you three answers to your question, all of which will work. The first two you will find cost money and time, the last is free of cost, takes less time but will not seem 'right' to you. Choice is yours. Choose which you wish.

There is a product on the web called MMS. Number of people sell. Cost around 20-30 bucks. You can read on the web how you use a lemon to activate this stuff. You apply it full strength to your athlete's foot or you apply it diluted and it will kill the athletes foot in probably 7 days or less.

The next solution/product is Hydrogen Peroxide (food grade) around 35%. Don't waste time with the stuff you buff at the discount store. Apply this in a diluted state and soak your foot in it 2-3 hours a day until it is gone.

Last is for you to break out of your shell, read how urine is a natural anti-fungal. Drink lots of water and fill a small pan with your non- yellow urine. Read it up the web how urine kills bacteria...naturally. Your urine costs you nothing, but it isn't what you might feel is natural though in reality it is far more natural than anything you can buy.

well some cures are tinactin and lamisil if not there some home remedies to help one way is to use vicks vapor rub and apply it between toes because it has an ingredient to help get rid of fungus. Another way is to add water and vinegar and let foot or feet soak or you can add listerine water and vinegar and that will also help get rid of fungus.

There are several over the counter medications that can help cure athlete's feet. Apply antifungal ointment 2-3 times a day, reapply after showering and before going to bed. Carefully dry between each toe after showering. Avoid harsh soaps. Sprinkle antifungal power in shoes. Go barefoot as much as possible. If over the counter medications are not doing the trick speak with your doctor.

Further to the above, it is a good idea to dispose of all your socks and buy new ones, as well as buying new shoes, to avoid continual reinfection. Athletes foot fungus cannot survive in dry conditions, so making sure you dry your feet thoroughly and using anti-perspirant liberally on your feet to make sure they are always dry will cure the infection and prevent the fungus taking hold again. Never share a towel with anybody else, avoid bathmats and other places where people put their bare feet.

athlete's foot can be treated by a cream, spray, and by changing socks and footware frequently. I have had athletes foot before and I got a cream to spread n it and it went away in two weeks or less.

Athlete's foot is caused by a fungus. It is best treated with an anti-fungal powder or spray, such as Tinactin, which contains the active ingredient tolnaftate. This can be purchased over the counter. If you have a severe case of athlete's foot, your doctor can prescribe an oral antibiotic that will clear up the fungus.

Athletes foot can usually be treated by over the counter antifungals, available at any drug store. More persistant cases can be treated with prescription medicine from your doctor. http://www.webmd.com/skin-problems-and-treatments/tc/athletes-foot-treatment-overview
