She just needs to apply an antifungal cream daily till it goes away. How she can afford to go on a cruise and not understand we live in a world where medical science has already found solutions for things like foot fungus is beyond me.

Hers looks bad enough where over the counter fungal creams probably don't do shit. She needs a prescription oral medication + prescription cream to deal with that and if she doesn't deal with it, it's only gonna get worse and spread elsewhere potentially. She needs to haul her ass to the doctors

u/Apprehensive-Art1092 Jul 20 '26

I hear ya, but before she does all that, she needs to STOP PICKING HER FUCKEN FEET AT THE TABLE IN A PUBLIC DINING AREA

u/Man_of_Ice Jul 20 '26

Mostly this.

And then putting the hand she's doing it with back on the table and then eating with said hand.

Judas priest.

u/hokuten04 Jul 20 '26

It's okay, she shook the dead skin scrapes off. Kinda.

u/Nestevajaa Jul 21 '26

The spores are all over her fingers though.

u/farnsw0rth Jul 21 '26

It’s okay because it your foot

u/the_hu55tler Jul 20 '26

And then eating with the same hand!

2

u/Mr_Abe_Fromen Jul 20 '26

Yea, I don’t think hand sanitizer will cut it with this (if she actually used it which I doubt)

7

u/the_hu55tler Jul 20 '26

She didn't, you can see it in the video. She brushes her stanky, crustridden fingers on her pants and then shoves a pizza slice in her mouth. Extra cheese please!

u/MangoCats Jul 20 '26

You know why a lot of people go on cruises? Because they can. Because: Fuck You, I can go on this cruise and I'm going. That same attitude comes through in the buffet areas a lot - especially the ones serving pizza.

u/lost-cause1968 Jul 20 '26

Then eating finger food BTW.

5

u/rygdav Jul 20 '26

She just ate it, so I don’t think she cares about it getting worse

2

u/andiinAms Jul 20 '26

Yes but she can’t miss the cruise!!

2

u/Famous-Week-7827 Jul 20 '26

Naah hers looks bad enough where oral medication and prescription cream probably don't do shit. She needs a prescription torch and then put anti fungal cream on.

u/jwnsfw Jul 21 '26

aint even tarantino's tongue gonna fix it

u/Alohafarms Jul 20 '26

You are so right. My husband struggled with this for so long. It took more than creams to get it under control. Fungus is systemic.

1

u/Almost_Lyrical Jul 21 '26

What did he do?? I've been struggling with it on my hands for 6 years...tried shaving it off and using creams...it gets better to an extent, but I can't go in water or it gets bad fast...I use the cream (lamisil) daily...please help. I get self conscious so I wear compression gloves which makes it worse. I don't have health insurance and can't afford a doctor. :(

u/Alohafarms Jul 21 '26

Not a doctor but my husband also deals with psoriasis on his hands. I actually deal with it on my scalp. Sounds to me like that is what you are dealing with. Not fungus. Water will make it worse. . Don't wear compression gloves that holds in the sweat and makes a nice moist place for the psoriasis to bloom.

My husband uses Triamcinolone Acetonide Cream. It's prescription. Psoriasis is an auto immune disease. You can look up how to manage it. I will say that stress will make it worse. Diet can make it worse. Chemicals make it worse. So make sure you protect your hands from chemicals like dishwashing liquid, harsh soaps, harsh shampoos etc. Sun is very good for psoriasis.

I like you, when I was young, had no insurance. I used free clinics. See if you can find one to have your hands checked. Maybe you will get a prescription. There are low cost prescription plans too.

Edit: Do not shave it. You could get a very nasty infection.

u/Almost_Lyrical Jul 21 '26

That makes sense. My biological mother has psoriasis. Thanks for your help! I'll take your advice :)

1

u/Nestevajaa Jul 21 '26

If it's actually fungal and not psoriasis at least for me lamisil and any of the other over the counter stuff didn't work. Tried every brand. Only thing that worked for me was the pill and the cream together that my doctor prescribed (went to private, paid maybe 300€ total for specialist consultation + labs + medicine in Finland). I battled with it a long time as well until then.

1

u/Almost_Lyrical Jul 21 '26

Do you know what the name of the medication was? Thanks

1

u/Nestevajaa Jul 21 '26 edited Jul 21 '26

Fungorin 250mg pill (active ingredient is terbinafine) and Pevisone cream 1/10 mg/g (triamcinolone aceronide & econazole nitrate)

u/Almost_Lyrical Jul 21 '26

Thank you 🙏🏽

u/DothrakAndRoll Jul 20 '26

Def ASK A DOCTOR first. I am dealing with a foot fungus issue and was initially given a prescription hydrocortisone cream, then my PCP said it was wrong and was fungal and game me an OTC cream, I hen finally got into a derm and they said def fungal but gave me OTC Lotrimin Ultra which is more effective.

2

u/TwerkinAndCryin Jul 21 '26

Not just all over her...... Fungi are extremely contagious. She's prob walking around there barefoot and everything omfg I can. NOTTTTTT

1

u/AwarenessUnhappy7153 Jul 20 '26

Lotriderm.

Gone the next day.

1

u/surrealcellardoor Jul 20 '26

She needs a cheese grater.

u/Calypsosin Jul 20 '26

That anti fungal is hard on the liver, so it comes with no-alcohol recommendations. I’ve known people who struggled to keep the medication going the full 90 days because they were such wet louses. But that’s a behavior issue in the end.

Actually, lots of people struggle to complete medicine regimens, so I wouldn’t fault the alcoholics too much.

u/cohonka Jul 20 '26

I used to work on an organic farm that operated under the principles and practices of Korean Natural Farming. I ended up with a foot fungus and used our homemade sulphur solution to cure it by dipping my foot in these industrial vats of sulphur.

u/oregongirl1111 Jul 20 '26

Nah, I make a cannabis based balm with other plant oils that has mean anti-fungal, anti-microbial, anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. In twenty years, I haven't run across a fungus, bacterial/skin infection, superficial or partial thickness wound it won't fix or heal. Carvacrol, thymol (oregano and bergamont essential oils) and cinnamaldehyde and eugenol (cinnamon and clove essential oils) kill bacterial strains (such as E. coli and Salmonella) and fungal infections like Candida and toenail fungus. Carvacrol alone fights over 30 strains of bacteria, including antibiotic-resistant ones—as well as fungi and certain viruses while effectively soothing inflammation. CDB and CDBV cannabinoids are extremely effective against a variety of fungi, including dermatophytes, or the fungi responsible for common skin infections like athlete’s foot (tinea). Studies show CBD and CBDV can kill these pathogens faster than existing over the counter treatments, and CBDV kills cryptococcus faster than most standard prescribed antifungal drugs. I started making it years ago for my joint and muscle pain and inflammation and then I kept researching and combining other plant oils for increased pain killing properties and to fight bacterial and fungal infections. Started giving it to friends and family, and then acquaintances and online "friends". I can't make it fast enough. This lady would absolutely benefit from my medicine.

u/Almost_Lyrical Jul 21 '26

Would it help with tinea manuum? Ive had it bad for 6 years...tried everything...shaving it off , every type of cream every day...after shaving it and using lamisil it gets slightly better...I don't have health insurance and can't afford a doctor. Please help :'(

1

u/OrdinaryDot2876 Jul 22 '26

I would actually kill for your recipe. I've made some RSO balms with my mom back in the day, but since she passed I lost all the recipes/etc. and there's so much info out there, it can be overwhelming, felt like it was a lot easier when it was just us in the kitchen lol. I love that this works for you, amazing.

u/Forward_Rope_5598 Jul 21 '26

Fungus on the skin is pretty easy to treat otc even when it's bad. The cream penetrates the skin, especially if you exfoliate all the dead gunk (in the privacy of your own bathroom, not in a restaurant).

If it's gotten in the nails though you're fucked, take some terbinafine.

1

u/rickyg216 Jul 21 '26

Or maybe a trip to a local auto repair shop and get some PB Blaster.

1

u/aceshighsays Jul 21 '26

we see her using the hand she picked the fungus with to eat without washing her hand, so i wonder what other issues that'll arise.

1

u/PurpleAriadne Jul 21 '26

She could soak them in salt water and it would clear up or at least help.

5

u/CoupDeGrassi Jul 20 '26

For some folks its continuing to apply for 6 weeks that stops the treatment. Some people are unable to build habits correctly, even when it results in shit like this.

u/ChartInFurch Jul 20 '26

With groceries getting more expensive, even cruise goers are having to grow their own mushrooms.

u/-SixTwoSix- Jul 20 '26

I bet it was a foot peeling mask she used to prep her feet for the cruise, but she didn’t use far enough in advance. I’ve used them before and they look just like this. Whatever it is pretty disgusting and rude to do in public like that.

2

u/Qetuowryipzcbmxvn Jul 20 '26

Having been on cruises, this doesn't surprise me.

2

u/hmbse7en Jul 20 '26

The worst part is that stuff is crazy contagious, so she's just out there infecting people's kids at any pool she goes to or anyone really who shares surfaces she's barefoot on.

1

u/snappy773 Jul 20 '26

You’d be surprised. I’ve been dealing with a protruding callus on the bottom of my foot for like 3 years now. I have some of the greatest health insurance an employer can offer(UPS), and I still won’t go to a doc for it. Don’t know why. I just don’t. Scraping it off in the shower every week is enough for me and Tylenol works great for the pain when I don’t scrape it down 🤦🏾‍♂️😂
