Canespro Fungal Nail Treatment Set for Toenails | Plasters & Nail Scraper Included

Like most people with this cursed ailment, I've tried a few things and they've all been useless. I don't know about anybody else but I haven't got the time or dedication to spend six months painting my toenails daily in the vague hope it might get better, with no visual evidence of any actual improvement. This stuff came recommended from a web article as being fast and it's not kidding. The treatment cream is a strong urea formula that softens the revolting brittle nail. There's also a nasty little multitool that's absolutely great for poking, slicing and generally fetching off the grotty bits of nail that you will now be able to remove. I also used a battery powered nail file I've got to bring stuff off but you could just use an emery board. Please understand - you will probably lose the majority of the nail - however, I've just put some falsies on for now which I couldn't do because of the infection. Now the horror has gone, it should grow back not looking like the stuff of nightmares. The plasters are a bit weird - after the first few days I just sliced a section of one off each day and used that. They need to improve those. They're rubbish. But, big story, I had two infected big toe nails that have been causing me utter despair for a couple of years. This stuff has done the job in a couple of weeks. I'm confident that if it returns, I'll be able to nix it quickly with this stuff too. I know it's a bit pricy but it's a lot less than the cumulative price of all the stuff I bought which didn't work. So start with this I'd say.

This is probably the best product I have ever bought from Amazon. I have had a nasty fungal big toe for years and had tried all sorts of home treatments but nothing worked. I ended up going to an expensive podiatrist who suggested a two-pronged attack of laser treatment and medication - an expensive option and I didn't fancy medication as there are potential side effects. I found this product on Amazon and thought I'd have one last go myself. I used it for about 2 weeks to totally remove the nail, this was painless, then I treated my "naked" nailbed with lamisil cream daily for some weeks as the nail gradually grew back. First photo is fungal nail then pic 2 is halfway grown back and third pic today. Still a bit of growth to go and a tidy up but the fungus has completely disappeared. I'm overjoyed. It has taken about 6 months but well worth it. I can't recommend this product highly enough.

Be warned, this is the fungal equivalent of total war... The Bad - The plasters that came with this kit were totally and utterly useless for me. Perhaps I'm not getting it, but they were just horrendous.... That ultimately makes this an extremely expensive tube of urea ointment and a plastic scraper. I ended up using some normal flexible fabric type plasters which worked much better in my opinion. The Good - So far (about 1.5 weeks in) it has almost completely removed all signs of infected nail... well to be honest the entire nail. Since this is an infection I've had for many, many years I'm willing to accept that perhaps the whole nail was infected, even if not visibly so. In the past the full nails have indeed been visibly infected. Do bear in mind however that your nails may look a fair bit worse before they start to look better. If you are a strategic thinker, you may want to give this a crack in autumn to give time for your nails to sort themselves out by summer time so you can strut your stuff barefoot at the beach in style. I will update this review once the treatment is complete, but to be honest it has done the job it was supposed to by removing the infected nail and now I would say the remainder is really down to the anti-fungal cream/ointment used while the nail is growing back. If this doesn't work then I really can't see what would short of actually amputating my toes. Update - Well I had two nails that were completely infected all the way through to the root, and the worst affected one has now grown back and is completely cured! Amazing after 16+ years of trying so many things! The other one has grown back much improved but unfortunately not quite like a perfect new nail as the other one did - I think I probably stopped using the canespro a little too soon on this one as I didn't manage to remove all the nail (big toe). I used clearzal as my anti-fungal option and I think that goes well with this treatment so I would recommend it. I'm now doing a second attempt on the not-perfect nail to see if I can replicate the results from the cured one. Overall this is the only treatment that has achieved anything for me so it's a win in my opinion. Just over priced and stupidly shaped plasters!

Sounded like a good concept. Supposed for use in mild to moderate cases. Instructions were vague. There is a practitioners web site that actually provides more information. Had to contact Bayer to find out how to apply it and they didn't know anything that wasn't in the manual. Ointment seems legit and it's hard to get out of the tube and apply. Apparently if your whole nail is infected or if you are unsure which parts are infected, you can apply it to the whole nail. The main thing is to avoid getting any on the skin. I found the supplied seemingly waterproof plasters overkill and after 24 hours I removed the plaster from the big toe and found that it was damp underneath from sweat, totally non-breathable, and the skin was all wrinkled like I'd soaked my toe in water overnight. It was horrific. I instead used normal elastoplast strip plaster and didn't have this issue. Also, if the nail is separated from the nail bed (severe case), then the scraper is not going to work as it would put too much lateral pressure on the nail. It moved my nail but didn't scrape it very well. I got a tiny amount of nail off but gave up. A 20 min soak is not enough to soften up a big toe nail and scrape it with the supplied scraper unless you use serious force. I soaked my toe for 40 mins in salt solution and that wasn't enough either. So I have just been applying the ointment and basically ignoring the rest of the kit. I'm sure a tube of the ointment on its own would be half the price! Amazon is selling it for slightly over RRP (not uncommon) but it's hard to find otherwise. Been using it a week and so far hasn't done much, in conjunction with antibiotics as the whole toe was infection with bacteria, on top of the toenail fungal infection, but then again neither did the neat clove oil i was applying to it anyway (before I took the antibiotics). My GP reckoned the bacterial infection was driving the fungal infection so perhaps now the bacterial infection is almost gone I'll make some progress with the fungal infection. However, one GP I spoke to said I can use anti-fungal ointment if I want, and the other I spoke to said these topical ointments and treatments do nothing, and both said the only real treatment is oral antifungal medication which is only given after submitting toenail clippings and verification that it is definitely fungal. So I imagine these treatments work in very mild cases well but otherwise no. I will continue to use it but I think my whole toenail is binned but am at least hoping to kill off the fungal infection in the nail so it doesn't spread.

I damaged my nail over 10 years ago ice climbing. It became infected and Then has worsened slowly over the years until in became thick, yellow and lifted away from the nail bed on the one side. It was as it sounds, quite horrible. I've tried other products (Scholl etc) and had zero success. I took interest in the Amazon reviews and thought I would give it 'one last try' and I'm glad to say I've not been disappointed. I followed the instructions to the letter and, as many others have testified, used Micropore to keep the plasters that they supply on. The plasters are not great but with this additional support they did the job. I also ditched the plastic file they supply as this was pointless. I used a foot file as a good substitute, the kind use for getting ride of dead skin on the bottom of your feet. I had to be ruthless with soaking filing, cutting etc. which did cause my nail bed to bleed on occasion, but I almost entirely got rid of the fungus and nail in around a week. the nail bed looks pink and healthy. I also started using a fungal cream, Daktarin Aktive Micronazole Nitrate, on the nail bed when I started to see it. I've been using that two or three times a day by itself when the nail had disappeared entirely. I've started to see fresh nail growing and that look clean. So far so good! Good luck with yours and i hope you are as delighted as I am after a few weeks of trying. UPDATE It’s been a while and I thought I’d provide an update. The fungus is back despite this attempt to rid myself of it!

This product is brilliant! I’ve had a toe nail that come off 4 years ago and it was ingrown and had fungus to! The nail grew back but was still ingrown and very thick so I have tried a lot of creams from chemist I would have to file the nail down as it was so thick which didn’t really work So bought this last week ( not cheap) BUT after 2 applications it has softened the ingrown bit so I can tease it out of skin area where it extremely thick and wedge in so I will put in a few more applications and remove the ingrown area and keep monitoring it when it does eventually grow back which will take a long time I expect ? For me it is a case of softening the thick area and trimming it out a bit each night ! Only this cream has or I believe could do this for me ? I wouldn’t put across the whole nail just the area that’s affected but if you have a thick nail then yes put across whole nail and file ! It does what it says so I’m very pleased

This is a great product, it really works. I got a nail infection in my right big toe nail after it was damaged when someone stood on it. This spread to my other big toe. The infection had spread over the whole toe but was still in the daily early stages, on the left it was only near the top of the nail. Some people have reviewed that the plasters are not good but for me they were fine. Maybe because I have small feet. I used it for three weeks. It has removed almost all the nail from the right toe, there is a small bit I’m struggling to remove but the nail has lifted. I’m a bit worried the nail bed is also infected but I am going to use an anti-fungal cream while it grows back and just see. The left toe it has removed all the infected area at the top only. Overall I am really impressed with this. Very easy to use and quick.

This product didn’t work for me sadly. Plasters were great and easy to use. Product was very stiff but easy to apply. Disappointed it did not work after reading so many positive reviews.
