Home Remedy #4: Hydrogen Peroxide

Hydrogen peroxide is a fairly common substance that has the chemical formula H2O2. It is often used as a bleaching agent and is commonly found in salons with the purpose of removing color from hair. It is caustic and it needs to be treated with caution to avoid burning the skin.

Hydrogen peroxide is also an antiseptic, making it effective at preventing infections. To use it, take a foot bath and fill it with warm water. Then, pour in half a cup of 3% hydrogen peroxide. You should allow your feet to soak for around 20 minutes and you should repeat two to three times a day.
