Hi,
Thank you for reaching out! Yes, you can wear socks after applying EMUAIDMAX First Aid Ointment to toenails affected by nail fungus.
The ointment absorbs quickly into the nail and surrounding skin. We recommend allowing approximately 10 to 20 minutes for the product to fully absorb before putting your socks on.
It is also important to keep your socks and shoes clean since fungus can remain on them and potentially reinfect the nail. We recommend changing your socks frequently and washing them thoroughly before wearing them again.
For the best approach, treat the affected nail while also keeping your footwear clean and dry. Allowing shoes to air out in sunlight, alternating between different pairs of shoes and using an appropriate shoe disinfectant or antifungal powder can help reduce fungal contamination.
Consistency is very important when treating nail fungus, so continue applying EMUAIDMAX as directed while maintaining good foot, sock and shoe hygiene.
