I live with my sister-in-law who loves dogs and decided that she wanted to go get a dog from the dog shelter. She found a dog, and after about a week of having her, I found a very small patch of lightly colored barely even red bumps on my calf. I had no idea what it was. It didn’t itch at all, and I was very worried since i didn’t know what it was I asked my mom who’s beast at knowing what things are. She told me it was ring worm and gave me some athletes foot to treat it. Used that twice a day, for a week straight. Instead of getting rid of it, it got worse. It now is on my upper thigh, and it was inflamed. So then i moved to tea tree oil, applied it for 2 weeks, and put band aids on the places where I had it. It didn’t clear up at all, it actually was more inflamed than it was before. I than began to think that I didn’t have ringworm. I’ve looked at multiple sites, and pictures trying to find something that was even remotely close to what I had. I thought I might have eczema, but I the places where I have it does not itch. So now for about 3 days I haven’t used any treatment, and it has begun to clear up, but I found a small cluster of bumps on my forearm. I know I need to see a doctor, but I really cannot afford it at the moment. Can some please help me? I’m desperate. ]]> /uncategorized/ringworm/comment-page-1#comment-114551 Sat, 25 Feb 2012 21:20:00 +0000 /ring-worm/#comment-114551 i have just realzed ihave ring  worm. it is on my upper thigh by the groinand spreading what can you recommend. ]]> /uncategorized/ringworm/comment-page-1#comment-114490 Wed, 15 Feb 2012 14:48:00 +0000 /ring-worm/#comment-114490 I am gone have to try this.It seem like every year about this time my son comes home with.

Also I wanted to mention that lots of fungus can be suffocated by using duct tape. I had planters warts that I wrapped in duct tape once. It took about 10 days for them to disappear. Hope this helps ]]> /uncategorized/ringworm/comment-page-1#comment-95873 Wed, 06 Jul 2011 00:04:21 +0000 /ring-worm/#comment-95873 On the farm the cattle got the “ringworm” and a neighbor told us to use old dirty motor oil and apply it to the infected areas. It not only worked for the cattle but for my brother who got infected as well. ]]> /uncategorized/ringworm/comment-page-1#comment-94435 Thu, 16 Jun 2011 05:34:38 +0000 /ring-worm/#comment-94435 You can use antifungal creams and sprays even if they are for a foot they all work the same. When you go to sleep use a cream and put a gauze pad on for overnight, it works great and really helps the itching. ]]> /uncategorized/ringworm/comment-page-1#comment-91645 Sun, 01 May 2011 06:41:41 +0000 /ring-worm/#comment-91645 I have used sulfur dip with great and rapid success. The drawback is it stinks. I have also successfully used tea tree oil, but that was a small spot caught early, whereas the sulfur took care of a severe case I had years back that the prescription meds could not help with at all. Iodine does work, but the sulfur is much quicker. I am trying apple cider vinegar this time. The basic concept of all of these methods is to upset the ph of your skin so as to make it an inhospitable host for the ringworm fungus. So, most if not all of the aforementioned remedies will work. Just be diligent, don’t forget to treat it and give it a chance to get stronger. ]]> /uncategorized/ringworm/comment-page-1#comment-82293 Mon, 11 Oct 2010 16:43:33 +0000 /ring-worm/#comment-82293 I had a spot of ringworm and my Dad said to put iodine on it three times a day for nine days; it completely cured it and my doctor was amazed. My Dad said he got it from his mother and as he raised dogs he said he used it and it always worked. ]]>
