Appl. No.:

12/901456

Inventors:

Cynthia Bailey - Sebastopol CA, US

International Classification:

A45D 29/20

US Classification:

132200, 132 75

Abstract:

A toenail treatment kit for treating onychomycosis and improving nail appearance for persons suffering onychomycosis, including a highly concentrated or supersaturated solution of boric acid. The boric acid solution is poured into a soaking tray having a fluid reservoir for containing said boric acid solution and a footrest proximate the reservoir on which to expose toenails to the boric acid solution. The method of treating onychomycosis using the solution and soaking tray includes the steps of pretreating skin proximate the affected nails; preparing and maintaining a fresh supply of highly concentrated or supersaturated boric acid solution; pouring the boric acid solution into the soaking tray; and soaking the affected nails for a period of time between a few seconds up to 30 minutes at least once per day every day for a sufficiently long period of time for the condition to appreciably improve or to resolve.
