Help for Ringworm?

[Guest guest]

My 15 year-old son has what I think is ringworm.  He had a similar spot on his

neck last year, and antifungal cream started to heal it almost immediately.  I

feel strongly that's what it is, and now it's quickly spreading to other parts

of his body (i.e., face, neck, hands, arms).  I am assuming this is sufficient

confirmation that there is a significant systemic candida infection going on,

despite a negative candida lab test.  In any event, I will take him to a doctor

if necessary, but feel he will immediately be put on an antifungal such as

Diflucan or Nystatin?  I am not comfortable with Diflucan because he has health

problems and the liver implications concern me tremendously, but what about

Nystatin, if it comes to that?  Is it relatively safe?  And is it pretty much

the same with all antifungals of this sort, that it will control the yeast

temporarily, but it can/will come back with a vengeance later?  I know it is

time for a candida

diet.  But I have put tea tree oil on all the spots.  I imagine I can use whole

garlic by mouth, or grapefruit seed extract.  But I am hoping the tea tree oil

does the trick.  I have also started Candi-Gone by mouth (not my preference, but

what I had on hand).  He is itching and distressed, so I would like to help him

properly from the get-go.  Any and all suggestions would really be appreciated. 

Many thanks!
