Guest guest Posted September 13, 2011 Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 I had to read up on the topic of gout and uric acid for a family member recently and i recall reading nothing about yeast ( as you mentioned) but that uric acid is made by one of our body enzymes.

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2011 Report Share Posted September 14, 2011 My husband had a fungal inferction of his toenail, and had a culture taken to be sure. The practice nurse said that ha could try a course of very pricey drug, to be taken for a long time, with lots of potential side effects. .Then she said she knew a drugs rep who swore by using Vicks instead: http://www.vicks.com/products/vapo-family/vaporub-topical-ointment/ Seeing as it was harmless, cheap, and better-sounding than the alternative, he gave it a go - smearing some on and around his toenail every am and pm. He even reported back to the nurse, who wanted to know if it worked or was just an old wive's tale... Whaddayaknow - it worked!!! It took a few months, but the same is true of the other stuff. Worth a go?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 15, 2011 Report Share Posted September 15, 2011 My cousin swears by vicks for same reasom. i am just glad i don' have to worry about nail fungal infections on topof everything else tat has already dformed my nails. I still get the icy toe and foot and leg spells now and then and for that i have a tiny heater blower or my electric heating pad. I get thes same icy (frost bite fear) thing on my nose now and then and have to keep it warm with my hands or under a cover too until it settles down on its own.
