From Dr. Jonathan Wright, Tahoma Clinic, Renton Washington
 
Fungus under the toenails ("onychomycosis") is a difficult problem to treat. 
Even "conventional" anti-fungal drug treatment takes months to work, and (for 
safety) monthly liver function tests are necessary. SSKI and DMSO rubbed on, 
around, and under the affected toenails doesn't work any faster, but it's just 
as effective, and definitely safer. Make sure to wear old socks, because SSKI 
and other forms of iodine leave an orange-brown stain. (Other safe and 
effective alternatives include geranium oil, oregano oil, and tea tree oil. 
These and other anti-fungal oils also require "help" from DMSO to penetrate the 
toenail and soak the fungus underneath.)

My son had athlete's foot for about a decade....hadn't gotten into his toenails 
though.

He tried a number of treatments, but what worked for him was tea tree oil.  I'm 
not exactly sure how he applied it though.

We recently had one of our customers say that they used MMS2 in a footbath to 
rid themselves of a toe fungus that had been bothering him for decades.  This 
had never occurred to me.  For external use it should be okay to use standard 
pool shock as a cheap treatment.  I have no personal experience of this, but 
for reference it was 400mg capsules (capsules not required in this instance of 
course).
