Fungal nail!

Has anyone had any experience with a fungal infection on their fingernail? If so any recommendations as to what helped to clear it would be much appreciated! I seem to have developed one on my thumb after a bad set of gel nails - been going to the same woman for a year now and she’s usually brilliant so quite annoyed that this has happened.

So far I’m painting the Scholl fungal nail treatment on every day and also soaking overnight in tea tree oil. Just keen to get rid ASAP - I’m really embarrassed about it..!

I got rid of mine (just thumb nail like yours) with Exclior. First thing I tried and was very quick and effective. - kept doing it though until it had completely grown out.

We have tried everything on husband's toenails however and NOTHING has worked, So that's a whole different story. He get his though fir quite a while before he tried ahything though so think it's imbedded, I was supper quick with treating my thumb. (Plus my thumb's not stuck in a dark warn shoe all day.). Go in fast and hard I say!!!

Bought some Exclior today - thank you! Here’s hoping it will work.. I’ve got a bucket list holiday planned for next week, to have an unsightly nail is the last thing I need right now😩
