Nail Fungus Prevention
Nail Fungus Prevention, In order to help prevent fungus in the nails and to reduce the chance for infections, it would ge good to practice good foot and hand hygiene by following a few steps:
1. Keep your nails short and clean and dry, when you trim your nails do it by cutting them straight across and make sure to file down the thickened areas.
2. After bathing or showers make sure to dry your feet thoroughly, especially between the toes.
3. Wear good socks. It would be best to wear synthetic socks vs. cotton. Synthetic socks will wick away the moisture faster than cotton there by keeping your feet dryer. Change you socks often especially if you sweat alot. Take your shoes off during the day now and then, especially after exercise.
4. Alternate using closed toe shoes and open toe shoes.
5. Practice using an antifungal spray or powder. Spray or sprinkle you feet and the inside of your shoes.
6. If neccassary use rubber gloves, after use turn them inside out to dry.
7. Avoid trimming or picking the skin around the nails. This could give the germs access to your nails and start the fungus.
8. Avoid going barefoot especially in public places, like public pools, shower rooms or locker rooms, use shoes or thongs.
9. Don’t use nail polish or artificial nails. It will be tempting to hide the nail fungal infections under a pretty coat of pink polish but this could trap unwanted moisture and worsen the infection.
10. Make sure you wash your hands after treating or woring with a nail that has fungus, the fungi is spread from nail to nail.

I was trying with a some products and treatments, but I can say that only one of them still works for me.
The company also provides a free trial before you buy the product, this is good considering all the money I spent finding the right one.
This is the product:

I know with photoblogs we have an extra problem people may know where the comment button is but just dont know what to write, in fear they may say something silly “I love the depth of field in this image, whatever that is” or more often how many time can they say “lovely shot”, if I get 10 comments on an image I am on top of the moon unfortunately it does not happen to much, photobloggers love comments like everyone else so its a tough graft
