We recommend washing the socks after every wear. While treating foot or nail fungus, it is important to put on a clean pair of socks each day. If your socks become damp or sweaty, change them sooner.
Fungus can contaminate socks, so washing them thoroughly before wearing them again helps reduce the chance of reinfection.
If you are applying EMUAIDMAX to your feet or nails, allow approximately 10 to 20 minutes for the ointment to absorb before putting on clean socks.
We also recommend keeping your shoes clean, dry, plus allowing them to air out between uses. Treating the foot or nail, socks, plus shoes at the same time is the best approach to help prevent the fungus from being reintroduced.
