Chronic Fungal Foot Infection

[Guest guest]

Of all the issues my son has I think this is the one that currently causes him

the most discomfort. He has flaky patches of skin on his feet and between the

toes and cracks between the toes that are itchy and painful.

His dad has a similar problem since childhood and various creams and lotions

only keep things under relative control but the problem is never entirely

eliminated.

I'm interested in what might be best to use to alleviate his immediate

discomfort and also what this means in the bigger picture and what it may

suggest we should focus on in terms of biomed. I know yeast/fungal issues are a

really tough nut to crack and do tend to keep coming back...

thanks

Charlotte,

My son had a similar problem - the following footbath every day for a week

cleared it up - for every day maintenance I use Neem 40 Talc from

www.neemgenie.co.uk

Mix half a cup of organic apple cider vinegar with 5 drops of tea tree or manuka

oil and 5 drops of lavender oil and add to a bowl of warm water. Soak your feet

for 10 minutes. Dry thoroughly.
