I made a post asking if laser treatments had NOT worked for

I made a post asking if laser treatments had NOT worked for anyone, but because I got a lot of people whom that was the case for: HAS professional laser treatment worked for anyone? Who has gotten rid of this for good using any other methods, no maintenance? Also, how are you all sterilizing nail clippers, etc?
Vicks terbinafine tea tree oil

I soak mine in 91% alcohol after use. 70% works too.

One professional pedi in the past decade, and I get toenail fungus from the nail salon. It’s been years, and I’m sick of it! And of course I have a boyfriend with a foot fetish I almost got rid of it once with terbinafine and tea tree oil, but I started painting my toes too early and it came back instantly. I finally started seeing a podiatrist instead of my primary care doctor, and I’m two months into laser treatments. I have several questions for anyone with experience. 1) Have laser treatments NOT worked for anyone? 2) What’s the most effective topical I can use in tandem with the laser treatment? 3) Has anyone done laser treatments in combination with methylene blue, and if so, how did it work for you? Were your toes stained blue for a long time? 4) Has anyone tried red light therapy, seeing as laser treatments are just concentrated red light? Thanks in advance for any advice! See less

Laser is great for podiatrists ($) but it's rare to hear a success story from a patient.

lol same story, been years and nothing has worked. It’s almost impossible to get rid of, easier to find new boyfriend
