My elder daughter had developed Ringworm few years back and she is alright now. But now since my younger son also plays a lot in the parks and sometimes even in the puddles too. I want to make sure he doesn't get the infection. What should I do for prevention?
You can start by teaching him some basic personal hygiene like washing hands every time he comes after school or playgrounds etc. If anyone is suffering from the infection, touching the infected parts should be avoided.
Sharing items belonging to an infected person including soaps, towels, clothes and any sports gear that the infected person comes in direct contact with should be strictly avoided. Skin should be kept clean and dry. Make sure that the clothes worn are not wet and clothes should be changed immediately after getting wet in rains or after increased perspiration. Applying some non- medicated talcum powder after having a bath can also keep the skin dry and absorb perspiration.

I suffer from RINGWORM on and off almost every 2 months. This has been happening since I was diagnosed as Diabetic 7 years back. Every time I have the infection I have to take a course of antibiotics. Currently I am on medication for the same. Do I need to discontinue these medicines if I start HOMEOPATHIC Treatment?
HOMEOPATHIC medicines start acting on the body immediately on starting the treatment. But since you have been taking conventional medicines for a long time now, it is not advisable to stop them right away. On stopping the conventional medicines, it is possible that the disease returns with a higher intensity. Along with parallel HOMEOPATHIC treatment, you can gradually taper off your doses of the medicine under the guidance of your expert HOMEOPATHIC physician. Eventually, you can discontinue your conventional medicines.
Since you are a diabetic, care has to be taken about sugar levels as high sugar levels delay the healing process of the infections. Homeopathic treatment will not only take care about your ringworm, but will also make sure that your sugar levels do not rise.
