I have a little toenail problem and wanted to take care of it with items I had on hand. I read that soaking your feet in a basin of hot water with Epsom salt and cayenne pepper would draw out the impurities in only thirty minutes. After just twenty intense minutes I couldn’t stand it any longer and removed my feet from the pit of liquid fire. I took a quick tepid shower–the rivulets of water from rinsing shampoo out of my hair had me wincing in pain the instant they reached my feet. Finally I soaked my feet in icy water. I was done with the fire water, so a little poultice of oils (tea tree, oregano and cayenne) was my new plan of action.
Nine hours later, my feet still feel like they’re on fire.
Wondering how your feet are now. Mom
