By using a ring worm home remedy,money
and time can be saved. There are a large
number of over the counter treatments for
ring worm,but most are rather costly. With a
few ingredients properly measured and
mixed,It would be easy to create your own
home cure for ring worm.
Here's a cure that was copied from an old
medical document dated 1926 by DR.
Willam A. Evans M.D...(and colleges). When
the doctor was asked the question "what is
ring worm and can it be cured?" He
responded by saying ..."inflammation of the
skin due to a parasite. Yes,the best and
surest method of cure is the use of X-ray.A
good method is to pull out the hairs around
the ringworm patch and to keep them pulled
out. Wash the patch twice daily with soap
and water and then paint with iodine or rub
in sulfur and mercury ointment. Spend at
least ten minutes rubbing the ointment in.
Ringworm cannot be cured by anyone in a
short time. Patient,persevering
thoroughness is a necessity of treatment. It
matters little what drug is used. It matters
much that patient,thorough care be given."
Years ago when there wasn't a drug store on
every corner or a doctor just a few blocks
away,many people made their own
medicines; ring worm cure was one of these
medicines.
As a child growing up on a tobacco farm in
the southern part of Virginia,I recall my
brother and I having head teeter,
(scalp ring worm.) The itch was something
that I will never forget. The infected spot
was scaly white and hair in the area became
very thin. My bother had a large spot to the
front left side of his scalp, and mine was
directly in the center back of the skull. But
thanks to Dad's Ring Worm Killer ,we were
soon cured. This old remedy was handed
down from his mother,which was of African
and American Indian descent.
Before the ointment was applied the
remaining hair was removed from the
infected area with hair clippers. The hair in
the area was kept trimmed as close to the
scalp as possible(very important). The
ointment was applied twice daily;morning
and night. The head was covered with a
night cap to keep the cream on the infected
area and to protect sleeping covers.
Tinea of the scalp;meaning any fungus skin
disease-can be very difficult to get rid of.
So it's very important to be consistent with
what-ever form of treatment one chooses.
