4. Baking Soda Baking soda can absorb moisture, making it great for treating foot fungus. Make a paste with baking soda and water, and apply it to your feet. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes then wash and dry your feet thoroughly.

5. Plain Yogurt The live active cultures in plain yogurt can help kill fungus. Apply a layer of plain yogurt to the affected area and let it dry. Once dried, rinse it off with warm water. Yogurt is gentle and can be used daily.

6. Cornstarch Cornstarch is excellent at absorbing moisture, which helps keep your feet dry and free from fungus. Apply cornstarch to clean, dry feet before putting on socks. This can be done every morning as a preventative measure.

7. Essential Oils Essential oils such as oregano oil and lavender oil also have antifungal properties. Mix a few drops with a carrier oil and apply to the affected area. Essential oils are potent, so it’s important to dilute them to avoid skin irritation.

These home remedies are generally safe and effective for treating mild foot fungus. However, if your condition doesn’t improve or worsens, it’s important to consult with a healthcare provider. Meanwhile, maintaining good foot hygiene, keeping your feet dry, and changing socks regularly can help prevent the growth of foot fungus.
