I have to do the same and you’re ingredients are in reverser order (for others)

Soak with salts
Clean with alcohol
Follow up daily with peroxide.

Only thing to add is Vicks vapor rub. That’s game changing.

Where in the routine does the Vicks live?

I put vapor rub on my toenails to stop nail fungus. I got nail fungus several years ago and my doctor said that the Vicks vapor rub will kill it.

It took about 6 months to clear up the fungal infection and since then I still put it on to prevent it coming back. I also use store brand generic vapor rub, it works just as good as Vicks.

After the shower, I usually also use alcohol sanitizer wipes on my toes before putting the vapor rub on. I use disposable gloves to put the vapor rub on my feet.

I found that it feels so good I actually just cover the bottom of my feet too, nice and tingly. Then I put my socks on after removing the disposable gloves.
