I have had a fungal infection, which I believe to be ringworm - Trichophyton rubrum, for 6 years. It started in one foot (left) and has now infected one hand (left).
It manifests itself in itchy blisters and makes my skin sore and cracked. It disfigures some of my nails. Altogether very uncomfortable (drives me to distraction sometimes) and unsightly.
I have tried repeated treatments with Dactacort cream, which temporarily relieves the symptoms until the fungus returns with avengance later on. It can be really troubling and painful and seems to get worse in the heat. I would be so delighted to get rid of it, but I don't want to take the drugs the doctor has suggested.
I am considering starting an anti-fungal diet to try and get to the root cause of it. I am not overweight, but my diet has it's fair share of sugar and carbohydrates.
I wonder if anyone has any good suggestions of way to tackle this horrible fungus? Dietry suggestions / homeopathic treatment etc. Thanks.
