Fungal nail infection

After nearly 10 ten days travelling some new places, I've found myself develop a fungal infection on my toenails and my feet. I might get it from a public pool when I was walking around all day exploring a new city. My feet started to become warm and sweaty. After returning home, I noticed extremely itching at the corners of my toenails and around my feet. The skin between my toes became so red, itchy and even released a foul odor. I'm trying to wash my feet with lukewarm water several times a day but that doesn't help. Is there any suggestion?

    Soak your feet in Listerine and white vinegar for 30 to 40 minutes daily. This really helped me.

      Thanks! I'm using an anti-fungal cream and it seems to work. I had used this cream for my yeast infection and it relieved my itchiness so quickly. The pharmacist who lived near my house said that it's anti-fungal, so it can work for my nail infection. Have just used it in about 2 days but I can definitely tell that it's working.
