i have the same thing. a fungus infection on 2 thumbs.
guess the thumbs do many things.
i will try your cure as well as remedies that other people have suggested.
like miso soup and shitake mushroom daily.
i am also using an anti-fungal medicine whcih i got over the counter. so far very little results and its almost 1 month.
on to the vinegar and listerine suggestion.
thank you.

Fungus on Thumbs by: Grandma
Hello Darlene,
I'm wondering if the fungus is on the tips of your thumbs and if your nails are infected too. I'd suggest soaking your thumbs in Apple Cider Vinegar a couple of times a day. If it feels too strong you can dilute it with warm water, about half and half.
If your thumb nails are discolored and you notice the fungus has gone deep you might want to try using half Apple Cider Vinegar and half Listerine. You can reuse this recipe over and over as long as you store it in a sealed container. Make sure you use the original Listerine, not the new improved kinds they have on the market now.
Thank you for visiting Grandma's Wisdom and a special thanks for the blessings. I hope you will visit often, I'm always adding new pages.
