Always dry your feet and nails thoroughly after each treatment to avoid moisture buildup, which can worsen fungal infections. Wear breathable shoes and moisture-wicking socks to keep your feet dry throughout the day. Continue treatment for several weeks even after symptoms improve to prevent recurrence.
Variations:
Add a few drops of tea tree oil to the lime juice for extra antifungal power.
Combine lime juice with apple cider vinegar for a more potent soak.
Use a diluted lime juice spray daily to maintain nail health after clearing the fungus.
