subject: Ringworm Treatment Naturally [print this page] Ringworm, regardless of how the word sounds it is not caused by worm but it is fungal infection. It is highly contagious and can spread from one person to another or from one body part to another just by touching. It can also spread through pets. Many pharmaceutical methods are available in the market for the treatment of ringworm but as we know chemicals always have some reaction on the body so side effects are also observed, hence natural treatment is always a better option.
Natural treatment
Some of the effective home remedies which can help us in treating ringworm infection are
Equal amounts of turmeric and honey shoud be mixed and applied on the affected area. It can be also taken orally but I prefer topical application.
Tea Tree Oil is also an effective Oil which can be used for its treatment. It can be used in undiluted state but if your skin is very sensitive then it should be diluted with appropriate amount of Jojoba oil.
Gel obtained from the leaves of Aloe plant also gives a cooling effect on the effected area.
One of the best natural cures is the slices of raw Papaya. It has the enzyme which kills the fungus causing ringworm. It shoul be allowed to sit on the effected part for atleast 15 to 20 min depending on the severity of the infection.
Medicinal herbs can also be used for the treatment of ringworm naturally.
The topical agents which help in the treatment of ringworm include Ketoconazole, Miconazole , Terbinafine, Butanafine etc. If the condition becomes severe consulting a physician will be the best idea.
