If an account holder's qualifying dependent is disabled and this disability prevents him/her from self-care, a DCFSA can cover the cost of expenses that will allow the account holder or spouse to work, look for work or go to school full-time.
A Dr. James P. Ioli, DPM , Podiatric Medicine, answered. As people grow older, toenails may become thicker, making them harder to cut. Here's a home remedy that works: apply a bit of Vicks VapoRub ointment (normally used for easing chest congestion) to your thick nails, massaging it on gently. Wipe off any excess ointment before pulling on socks or going to bed.
Prepare a pail of warm water. Soak the affected foot in warm water to soften the curved toenail. Massage the swollen part of the skin if the area is inflamed. Stuff a small piece of cotton or dental floss under the curved part of the toenail so it is lifted away from the skin.
