Although we are still in autumn, winter is just around the corner and you know what that means: heavy clothing, turtleneck blouses, goodbye sandals, and welcome boots. There are few things as disastrous - and quite common - as mushroom feet. In extreme cases, they even prevent wearing shoes or sometimes walking. But this ailment is treatable and, today I share some natural remedies for you to solve the problem.
You would be surprised to know how many products you have in your house -especially in the kitchen- that have other uses. For example, oils and kinds of vinegar have great healing qualities that serve to cure disastrous foot fungus.
I remember that my dad had mushrooms and his secret was vinegar. Before sleeping, he put the bitter liquid on his feet and then went to bed very happy. There are other accessible and inexpensive solutions. Here are ten natural remedies to cure foot fungus. Take a look!

It all starts with foot washing.
It all starts with prevention and many times the formation of fungus on the feet occurs due to lack of hygiene or excess humidity. When showering, be sure to wash the bottom and top of the footwell with soap, between your fingers, and around your nails. Remove the soap with plenty of water and dry completely before putting on stockings and shoes.

It may sound mean, but you should avoid sharing the care tools.
Your foot care tools should be yours alone. Do not share them with other members of your family and always prefer to bring your own file and nail clippers to beauty salons to avoid the transfer of infectious sources.
