Bring your fungal toes to Charles Sturt University (CSU) in the coming weeks to assess your condition and participate in a project investigating treatments for toe nails infected by fungus, or onychomycosis. Honours student Ms Cassie Bramston, in her third year of a podiatry degree in CSU’s School of Community Health, is observing the effectiveness of applying eucalyptus oil directly to infected toes as an alternative to oral medications and ointments currently used for fungal infections. “Participants will learn about treating their feet for this condition while also making the Albury-Wodonga community more aware of the debilitating effects of onychomycosis. Treating infected toes with eucalyptus oil is potentially much cheaper than the current medications, so if it is proven effective, it will become a much cheaper and more accessible alternative, particularly in more remote areas,” said Ms Bramston, who is  based in Albury. To take part in the research study, book an appointment at CSU’s CEW Clinic, Thurgoona, on (02) 6051 9299.
