Hey there! Do you have Athlete's foot? Have you tried this hydrogen peroxide foot soaks yourself? What was the result? I'd love to know your experience! Here's the link to the article if you prefer to read (it's a bit more in-depth than the video). bestformyfeet.com/is-10vol-hydrogen-peroxide-good-for-athlete-foot/ Thanks for watching, Adrian 👍
This works for me everytime. I had a nasty case in my teens. I had fungus growing between my toes so thick it was like I had webbed feet. Nothing worked, then one day I soaked my foot in peroxide 2%. Within hours the fungus and dead skin just sloughed off and I had healthy feet. It works every single time.
I was just wondering, did you mix the peroxide with water at all? If so, how much? I have had athletes foot (i think) for like 8 months now. I have used 5 different creams with different active ingredients (for 1-2 months each) and nothing has worked.
@@TstanDa-Man I know how to take of my walking dogs. I am crusty old combat engineer after all. Notice I said in my teens, when hygiene wasn't a big issue.
@@BestForMyFeet Well, that is interesting. It's been 30ish years since I had that nasty case. I soaked my feet daily for about two or three weeks. Anytime my dogs start acting up, peroxide soak, and it stops.
Efkaristo my friend 🙂 i'm happy you found the channel informatice. This motivates me to keep making the videos👍🏼 Check out the blog as well, lots of good info on there too. By the way, how can you be in Greece and Germany at the same time?🙃
A combination of hydrogen peroxide and antifungal crème does the trick. Let your feet air dry after you soak in the peroxide… then apply the foot creme… it will do the trick. Trust
gotta keep buying new socks too, bro. i never wear the same pair twice! it's crazy but it gets everywhere, i think. so constant cleaning and wearing new stuff as much as possible helps (iiii think :)
What I' started to do is to buy Merino wool socks instead of the rregular cheap ones I use to buy. I can't buy Merino wool socks everyday tho...I'll go broke hahaha they're very expensive. But I am impressed so far.
Another good idea is wear white socks and make sure to wash them in hot water and use bleach to kill the fungus, if you can’t afford new pairs of socks. That is what I did. Once the fungus was gone, I bought a new pack of white socks and threw away my old shoes. If you don’t do this, you will get reinfected again. Also shower with sandals or flip flops wherever you go. I even shower in flip flops at my own place.
Try this .... using a manicure fingernail brush, with "tree oil" brush, and wash between and under the toes. Trim the nails and use tree oil . it will definitely reduce foot odor and remove flaking skin, and discoloration of toenails. I hope this helps you.
Thanks Robert, very helpful! I'm done with it 🙂 published the video recently th-cam.com/video/IFJ3JnKO0fI/w-d-xo.html I might use your tips to get rid of the toenail fungus now which is a consequence of not taking care of the Athlete's foot fungus when I had to. Thanks a bunch. Adrian🤜🏼🤛🏼
Dilute tea tree oil with a carrier oil like coconut or olive oil, and don’t cover. I gave myself a 3rd degree full thickness burn on my arm from tea tree oil.
If you did the test for 1 week, then you stopped just when it was really starting to work. I just saw a video from a doctor that recommends doing this (or any other foot soak) remedy for 4 weeks, as the infected skin needs to come off and be replaced with healthier, non-cracked/peeling skin (the same goes for toenails but they take longer to grow) and to also do the following: 1. Never re-use socks without washing them. And if you can, change socks halfway during the day since you are using boots. 2. Dry out or clean the inside of your shoes regularly. They also hold fungus. You can use certain sprays to kill fungus and a fan or shoe dryer to make sure shoes/boots are dry. 3. Trim toenails regularly, as the part that overhangs can hold fungus/bacteria. It also makes them grow slightly faster, so you will outgrow the discolored part faster too. 4. That video also suggested using vicks vapor rub on the feet after washing and drying the feet well.
Good tips there. I've done the test t a bit over a week and if you take into account that after that I started to test the 6% hydrogen peroxide for about the same time, collectivelly I test the hydrogen peroxide for about 3 weeks, daily without the results some people say they have. The podiatrist I consulted on this topic said that hydrogen peroxide does not kill fungi. bestformyfeet.com/is-10vol-hydrogen-peroxide-good-for-athlete-foot/
Does it sting a little? My bubbles were less but I used 2% h2o2 just to be safe. The bubbles were less and the stinging only occurred at the top of my feet. My right foot is worse, the difference in bubbles was very apparent. So much dead skin and junk floating about after just 5 minutes.
There was no stinging. That was my worry too. Especially when I tried the 6% solution (th-cam.com/video/E_Ja8zyMln8/w-d-xo.html) which of course is much stronger. There was a bit of stinging at some point to be honest but that was because the skin became very dry in between my toes to the point where the skin cracked. It was very uncomfortable to apply hydrogen peroxide while that crack was open. Very stringy., But other than that, it doesn't sting at all. Hope this helps. Adrian
I had a stubborn toenail fungus and none of the topical meds worked. I really didn't want to take pills so I tried every home remedy I came across. A diluted bleach soak is what worked for me. I remember soaking and then filing the nails and dead skin down the first time. A couple weeks later, I filed my toenails and removed any dead skin and then soaked. I repeated this about a month later. It never came back. I've also heard that bathroom tile cleaner will work too, but it has to be the kind that kills fungus. Btw, all this stuff is very drying but its not a daily thing.
I’m glad you were honest about it. I’m going to have my son try it to clean his feet before he uses the apple cider vinegar soak & listerine soak. Try it it may work. Thanks for being honest & helpful
Thanks for wathing and commenting! That's something you find less and less nowadays unfortunately. Honesty. Especially on TH-cam. I'm happy you find it helpful. It was a good experience for me as well since I've learned a lot about the topic. And the most impressive thing for me is that my feet stop stinking for the first time in more than a decade. I use to hear one or two guys in my industry (construction) saying they've used hydrogen peroxide and good bye stinky feet ... but I guess I didn't believe them enough in order to try it myself. But I'm glad I did. It's a great product to have at home! Please let us know if your son find it helpful in any way to wash his feet with hydrogen peroxide. Good luck! Btw, I've used the 6% hydrogen peroxide too... Video 👉 th-cam.com/video/E_Ja8zyMln8/w-d-xo.html Article 👉bestformyfeet.com/3-versus-6-percent-hydrogen-peroxide/ Adrian👋
@@BestForMyFeet Yes I’m going to tell my son tomorrow as it’s like almost 2am in Texas, but I’m glad it at least helped your poor tired feet with the smell & I bet it felt pretty good expecally with tired feet. You should try the apple cider vinegar & listerine they say that cures. We’ll see because I’m telling my son about that to. I’ve learned all this on utube . Yes utube has some good in there but there are a lot of liars out there to. While watching your video I was sure you were gonna say it worked, but you were absolutely honest & I liked that. I said to myself something as simple as this he told the truth, when you could lied & said it was a cure. I do hope you find something because I know my sweet son has this problem & he’s like you works long hours & on his feet. I wish we didn’t have to work to survive, kinda wish we all had our own land & we all lived off our own, but then again that’s probably harder too. Oh well that’s life. Your take care & let me know if you ever find a cure which I hope you do. God Bless you & yours.
The DC Foot Doctor - a podiatrist who has a channel on You Tube says that peroxide is NOT good for your feet. It dries out the skin. Even as a wound flush it is recommended to be diluted 50% with water because it is too drying to the flesh.
Hey Yzetta thanks for your comment. I haven't checked any of his videos but I've tried hydrogen peroxide on my own and I can say it didn't dry my skin. It MIGHT dry HEALTHY skin if used A LOT but not on your feet where the Athlete's foot have done a lot of damage already to the skin. The skin on my feet is dead skin... And although this solution didn't kill the fungus it did get rid of some dead skin on my feet leaving them cleaner and better looking overall. I'm talking from my own experience here! Adrian👋
I liked your comments about athletes foot and treatment. We are helping our “adul😢t” grandson with an terrible case of athletes foot. We are using peroxide method. After the soak, rinses. Buff a little as you dry feet. 😢then apply cream dr. Provided. He does that in the a.m. then after work, construction, he rinses hid feet in warter and tea, drys thoroughly then a applied cream again. Wears socks after cream. Lets shoes dry out for at least 24 hours. Has two pair of hard toed boots so switch’s to let each pair dry out. This is all doing wonders on his athletes foot. No socks at bedtime or in the fishing boat! And learning to DRY foot. Like you say peroxide doesn’t cure athletes foot but helps soften dry, blustery feet. I think he is learning that drying feet helps a lot!
Hey Papapine, are you talking about boot dryers? If yes, I've only discovered this after the fact. Now I put my boots on a dryer daily, even if they're not wet👍🏼
I did it for almost weeks also with iso alchohol ! But I did it as soon as something showed up on my foot .. and I wore slippers and socks for 2 weeks .. no shoes . Kept my feet dry. But I soaked daily with hydro and iso alch .
Thanks for sharing J C. It was very smart on your behalf to take action FAST. I didn't do that and it turned nasty a few years later. I'm glad it worked for you though. 🤜🏼🤛🏼
sfter you soak your foot dry it a liitle bit then crape the fungus off.. thats what i did.. i do once or twicw a week.. baking soda this week, epsom salt next then peroxide the other.. my foot don't seat and stinks like it used to aslong i kept on soaking it.
My mother is having athlete's and it is not going even after we have used many creams like clotrimazole, luliconazole cream now what can we do? Is this remedy is good? It doesn't harm nah? NEEDED HELP URGENTLY
Hey Keshika, if you tried so many different solutions and nothing works it's a good idea to visit a doctor. This solution didn't work for me after using it for about a week.
@@keshikaregmee667 I'm sorry to hear that but if whatever the doctor is recommending doesn't work ... I really don't know what to say. Ask the same doctor if you can use this solution. The poditrist I've asked said hydrogen peroxide is useless against fungus. (Even though I decided to try it).
Hey Patricia. No, it doesn't burn. At least it didn't burn me. The 6% hydrogen peroxide does give you a chemical burn which basically makes parta of your skin white. If you ever use it to bleach hair you've probably seen that. Nothing too serious but I will use gloves next time I use the 6% hydrogen peroxide. Hope this helps. Adrian
Looks like you have a bad case of nail fungus/tinea unguium. You probs needs to be on an oral anti-fungal. There's a product called Efinaconazole you can get, it's branded as Jublia. Most stay on it for a year, with your line of work you'd be best to stay on it longer or see what your Dr says.
Thanks for the tip. That's one of the things I'll start testing soon. I believe I was reading somewhere that Athlete's foot fungus left untreated for too long is going to affect other parts of the foot ... in this case, my nails. As soon as I'm getting rid of the Athlete's foot I'll start looking into solutiong for nail fungus and I'm adding the one you suggested to the list👍🏻
Yeah from my understanding that is a type of athletes foot condition. Might be the time to see a Dr bro, I see you putting in the work with your foot hygiene and day to day practices so hopefully something like Jublia and a steroid cream long term will did you of it. Damn sucks having athletes foot
None of this shit works for me I’ve soaked in peroxide and none of it comes off😭None of these creams work either. I only have it between my 4th and small toe but I just want it gone forever☹️
Sorry to hear that man but as you can see it didn't do much fornme either. I'm testing some creams at the moment and I'll make a video update soon with the results. Maybe in your case you have to take pills. Talk to a doctor about it. Adrian
@@BestForMyFeet Yeah I’m scheduling a doctors appointment now. Thank you for updating us with different methods! I hope the cream works for you as well!
@@BestForMyFeet Hey I thought I’d come back and give an update lol. The doctor gave me a cream and a pill to take about two weeks ago. One of my feet have completely cleared up and the other looks like it’s starting to get better. I only had it between my small toe area. But I’m hoping it goes away soon as it was a little worse on that side. Still currently using the medication I was given.
well, as you can learn from my, it didn't work for me. Athlete's foot it's not a painful foot condition. It might get to sting a bit when your skin becomes so dry that it starts to crack but it's not painful. At least, not in my own experience. Adrian
Bro, soak you socks (all of them) & wash them at the same time you soak you feet. Also spray the peroxide straight into your boots. Then see how long it takes to come back...
Thanks for the tip bro. I have moved on now and tried the 6% hydrogen peroxide to see if that works...but I'll try to do that in the future, at least for the socks and boots. 👉 th-cam.com/video/E_Ja8zyMln8/w-d-xo.html It's similar to what I already to with disinfecting my work boots but with rubbing alcohol instead. 👉 th-cam.com/video/OJIIZuw7YS8/w-d-xo.html Adrian👍🏼
Hey Tyrone, the 3% hydrogen peroxide it's already so diluted it doesn't need water. Some people are using it to brush their teeth as it is... People with sensitive skin need to be more careful of course so if that's your case you should check with your doc first before using it.
You have to throw away all your socks and shoes!! Then do the fungal treatments....I found that out after years of fungus rebound!!!! New socks and new shoes and airout your feet
Gracias Juan :) I did get rid of the socks. It was a bit harder to do that on the footwear :D Lots of money was spent there. What I did instead is disinfect all my footwear using alcohol isopropyl bestformyfeet.com/how-to-disinfect-work-boots/ That plus having more than one pair of work boots for example helped a lot! I did manage to get rid of the Athlete's foot fungus a few weeks after making this video (bestformyfeet.com/how-to-get-rid-of-athletes-foot-fungus/) and now I simply pay more attention to my feet and footwear hygiene. Adrian🤙
This treatment didn't work on you, maybe because you used the same boots you've been using before treatment. You should changed your work shoes at the dame time you started your foot treatment. This is because your old shoes are already infected with athletes foot. Good luck 👍
Soak your feet in warm to hot water, then make the water hotter and hotter, soak for 10 minutes. You will feet the parts of your feet affected right away, the areas with the fungus will burn more than the non fungal areas on your feet. The hot water kills the fungus. Do this this every day for a week. Air dry your feet afterwards, then spray with with an anti fungal spray.
GR8 video! ⚠️ BUT YOU NEED TO DILUTE IT FIRST!! Dilute with water!! Do a foot bath for 30 minutes, then use a paint brush to paint the areas with SEVERE athletes foot with just hydrogen peroxide. Then after an hour spray your feet with athletes foot spray/a cream and then put your socks back on. I do this at night, then go to bed with no socks on and then when I wake up I’ll put some spray on my feet again, put on socks and go to work. Then when I get home I IMMEDIATELY take off my socks and air out my feet. That’s how I treated mine, now every week I do a hydrogen foot bath.
thank you for watching and for sharing as well😀 . That's what I thought. Hydrogen peroxide by itself doesn't work (at least not the 3% solution I tried). what kind of socks do you wear? are they any special (cotton, wool, etc)...
@@BestForMyFeet For 3%, you can put directly on the feet. Normally one would spritz it on and let it air dry. If soaking in 3%, I would not do it for more than 5 minutes, otherwise I would recommend dilute it 1 to 1 or 2 parts water. Be careful about the container you use. The peroxide can cause plastics to leach pollutants that your feet will absorb. Glass container is healthier. You can reuse peroxide for a few days. But after that the peroxide will lose it's usefulness as it kills bacteria and as light breaks it down. If you reuse at least once, it will save you twice the money. ;) If nails are infected, you'll want to trim and shave down the nails to help the peroxide penetrate. Be sure to also clean your tools in a peroxide soak. Because nails are infected, you'll need to be consistent in cleaning for 6 or more months to let the infection grow out. Can even take a year or more. Use a pumice stone or similar to remove the callouses. The bad bugs can hide there. Don't go crazy or you'll hurt your skin. And always consult your doctor first.

@@keshikaregmee667 I'm sorry to hear that but if whatever the doctor is recommending doesn't work ... I really don't know what to say.
Ask the same doctor if you can use this solution. The poditrist I've asked said hydrogen peroxide is useless against fungus. (Even though I decided to try it).
Diluted bleach soaks was the only thing that worked for me.
So using the peroxide does it burn?
Hey Patricia. No, it doesn't burn. At least it didn't burn me.
The 6% hydrogen peroxide does give you a chemical burn which basically makes parta of your skin white. If you ever use it to bleach hair you've probably seen that.
Nothing too serious but I will use gloves next time I use the 6% hydrogen peroxide.
Hope this helps.

I am using cream with carbamid everynight. It keeps the fungi at bay.
Looks like you have a bad case of nail fungus/tinea unguium. You probs needs to be on an oral anti-fungal. There's a product called Efinaconazole you can get, it's branded as Jublia. Most stay on it for a year, with your line of work you'd be best to stay on it longer or see what your Dr says.
Thanks for the tip. That's one of the things I'll start testing soon. I believe I was reading somewhere that Athlete's foot fungus left untreated for too long is going to affect other parts of the foot ... in this case, my nails.
As soon as I'm getting rid of the Athlete's foot I'll start looking into solutiong for nail fungus and I'm adding the one you suggested to the list👍🏻
Yeah from my understanding that is a type of athletes foot condition. Might be the time to see a Dr bro, I see you putting in the work with your foot hygiene and day to day practices so hopefully something like Jublia and a steroid cream long term will did you of it. Damn sucks having athletes foot
@@MrRendezvous will do👍🏻. I'm testing the 6% hydrogen peroxide and see if that works. If not...we'll have to look somewhere else!
@@BestForMyFeet did 6% burn ?
@@dadaddymak it depends what you mean if it burns. I'll make a video soon about it but if you want to know if it burned my skin...it didn't.👍🏼
Thanks!! 🦶
None of this shit works for me I’ve soaked in peroxide and none of it comes off😭None of these creams work either. I only have it between my 4th and small toe but I just want it gone forever☹️
Sorry to hear that man but as you can see it didn't do much fornme either. I'm testing some creams at the moment and I'll make a video update soon with the results.
Maybe in your case you have to take pills. Talk to a doctor about it.
Adrian
@@BestForMyFeet Yeah I’m scheduling a doctors appointment now. Thank you for updating us with different methods! I hope the cream works for you as well!
@@King-mf5pi 100% my man. Also, please share with us later on how it went for you after visiting the doctor👍🏼
Adrian
@@BestForMyFeet Hey I thought I’d come back and give an update lol. The doctor gave me a cream and a pill to take about two weeks ago. One of my feet have completely cleared up and the other looks like it’s starting to get better. I only had it between my small toe area. But I’m hoping it goes away soon as it was a little worse on that side. Still currently using the medication I was given.
@@King-mf5pi that's great news my man. Thanks for sharing. Some people take medicine, especially oral medicine, when the fungus is really bad.
does it REALLY work? or just eleviate pain a bit?
well, as you can learn from my, it didn't work for me. Athlete's foot it's not a painful foot condition. It might get to sting a bit when your skin becomes so dry that it starts to crack but it's not painful. At least, not in my own experience.
Adrian
Bro, soak you socks (all of them) & wash them at the same time you soak you feet. Also spray the peroxide straight into your boots. Then see how long it takes to come back...
Thanks for the tip bro. I have moved on now and tried the 6% hydrogen peroxide to see if that works...but I'll try to do that in the future, at least for the socks and boots.

It's similar to what I already to with disinfecting my work boots but with rubbing alcohol instead.

Adrian👍🏼
You didnt put enough in half a cup.
I thought you need water as well 3 to 1 not strait.
Hey Tyrone, the 3% hydrogen peroxide it's already so diluted it doesn't need water. Some people are using it to brush their teeth as it is...
People with sensitive skin need to be more careful of course so if that's your case you should check with your doc first before using it.
Clean the inside of your boots with a good antifungal spray. Make sure to dry your boots at the end of the day.
Small investments make big impacts.
Colorless iodine works
You have to throw away all your socks and shoes!! Then do the fungal treatments....I found that out after years of fungus rebound!!!! New socks and new shoes and airout your feet
Gracias Juan :) I did get rid of the socks. It was a bit harder to do that on the footwear :D Lots of money was spent there.
What I did instead is disinfect all my footwear using alcohol isopropyl bestformyfeet.com/how-to-disinfect-work-boots/
That plus having more than one pair of work boots for example helped a lot!
I did manage to get rid of the Athlete's foot fungus a few weeks after making this video (bestformyfeet.com/how-to-get-rid-of-athletes-foot-fungus/) and now I simply pay more attention to my feet and footwear hygiene.
Adrian🤙
if u dont see any bubbles,means ur feet re done with you.j/k
ACV WILL CURE IT
Hi.. what is ACV
@ apple cider vinegar
You could have saved yourself a ton of time by getting foot spray
I soak my feet in disinfectant
Thanks for the comment. Any disinfectant in particular? And how often do you do it?
This treatment didn't work on you, maybe because you used the same boots you've been using before treatment. You should changed your work shoes at the dame time you started your foot treatment. This is because your old shoes are already infected with athletes foot. Good luck 👍
Soak your feet in warm to hot water, then make the water hotter and hotter, soak for 10 minutes. You will feet the parts of your feet affected right away, the areas with the fungus will burn more than the non fungal areas on your feet. The hot water kills the fungus. Do this this every day for a week. Air dry your feet afterwards, then spray with with an anti fungal spray.
GR8 video!
⚠️ BUT YOU NEED TO DILUTE IT FIRST!!
Dilute with water!! Do a foot bath for 30 minutes, then use a paint brush to paint the areas with SEVERE athletes foot with just hydrogen peroxide. Then after an hour spray your feet with athletes foot spray/a cream and then put your socks back on. I do this at night, then go to bed with no socks on and then when I wake up I’ll put some spray on my feet again, put on socks and go to work. Then when I get home I IMMEDIATELY take off my socks and air out my feet.
That’s how I treated mine, now every week I do a hydrogen foot bath.
thank you for watching and for sharing as well😀 . That's what I thought. Hydrogen peroxide by itself doesn't work (at least not the 3% solution I tried).
what kind of socks do you wear? are they any special (cotton, wool, etc)...
You can try fungatin cream I try that and it works
⚠️ YOU NEED TO DILUTE IT FIRST!!!!
Wdym
You don't have to. 3% it's not a strong solution. People use it to brush their teeth so you can imagine...
@@BestForMyFeet For 3%, you can put directly on the feet. Normally one would spritz it on and let it air dry. If soaking in 3%, I would not do it for more than 5 minutes, otherwise I would recommend dilute it 1 to 1 or 2 parts water.
Be careful about the container you use. The peroxide can cause plastics to leach pollutants that your feet will absorb. Glass container is healthier.
You can reuse peroxide for a few days. But after that the peroxide will lose it's usefulness as it kills bacteria and as light breaks it down. If you reuse at least once, it will save you twice the money. ;)
If nails are infected, you'll want to trim and shave down the nails to help the peroxide penetrate. Be sure to also clean your tools in a peroxide soak.
Because nails are infected, you'll need to be consistent in cleaning for 6 or more months to let the infection grow out. Can even take a year or more.
Use a pumice stone or similar to remove the callouses. The bad bugs can hide there. Don't go crazy or you'll hurt your skin.
And always consult your doctor first.
I think ur expecting too much too soon!
Bleach
I'll try that for my next test...getting rid of the toenail fungus 🤜🏼🤛🏼
CD
How about medicationnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
Bronyou have lack of iodine in your diet thats why you have athlete's foot
