Well, let me tell ya, foot fungus, that ain’t nothin’ nice. Got it myself once, itched like crazy, made my toes look like somethin’ the cat dragged in. So, this here foot fungus bleach thing, heard folks talkin’ ’bout it. Now, bleach, that’s strong stuff, use it to clean the outhouse, you know? So, puttin’ it on your skin? Hmm, makes a body think twice, don’t it?
I ain’t no doctor, mind you, just an old woman who’s seen a thing or two. But common sense tells ya, bleach on skin ain’t right. It burns, makes things raw. You pour that stuff on your foot, you gonna be screamin’ louder than a stuck pig, I reckon. And that poor toenail? Forget about it. It’ll probably fall off quicker than a ripe apple in a windstorm.
Now, I heard tell of other things for that foot mess. Them doctors, they got fancy names for it, somethin’ like toenail fungus. Makes it sound important, but it’s just plain ol’ itchy, ugly toes, far as I see it. They got pills, you gotta take ’em for a long spell, months even. And they ain’t cheap neither. Got a neighbor, she took them pills, said they worked, but took a good while, she did.
Then there’s this other stuff, smells like the devil’s breath, they call it Lysol. Folks use it to clean the floors and such. Heard it can kill that foot fungus too. But again, that’s strong stuff. You go pourin’ it on your feet, you might just end up with worse problems than you started with.
- My old man, bless his soul, he used to soak his feet in vinegar. Said it helped. Vinegar, that’s somethin’ we always had around the house. Didn’t smell too purdy, but it didn’t burn neither. Just made the whole place smell like pickles.
- And then there’s the waiting game. You gotta wait and watch, see if that nasty yellow color starts to go away. That’s how you know the fungus is dyin’. If your nail starts looking like a normal nail again, not all thick and cracked, well, that’s a good sign, ain’t it?
Look, foot fungus, it ain’t the end of the world, but it sure is a pain in the behind. You wanna get rid of it, gotta be smart about it. Don’t go pourin’ bleach or anythin’ harsh on your skin. That’s just plain foolish. Go see a doctor, if you can. Or try some of them other things, like the vinegar or maybe that Lysol, but be careful with it.
And keep them feet clean, will ya? Wash ’em good, dry ’em good. Change your socks, don’t wear the same ones for a week straight. That ain’t gonna help nothin’. And for goodness sake, don’t go walkin’ around barefoot in public places. You never know what kinda nasty stuff you gonna pick up. This foot fungus bleach idea, well, it just seems too harsh. There’s gotta be a better way, a kinder way, to treat them poor feet.
So, there you have it. Just an old woman’s thoughts on this foot fungus business. Take it or leave it, but don’t say I didn’t warn ya about that bleach. It ain’t worth the pain, trust me on that one.
Remember, healthy toes are happy toes, and you don’t want them yellin’ at ya, now do ya? So be kind to them, and they’ll be kind to you. And stay away from that bleach! You hear?
If things get really bad, that toenail might just give up the ghost and fall off. Don’t be surprised if a new, healthy one starts growin’ in its place, though. That’s nature’s way of fixin’ things, I reckon.
