I have it on my foot and on my neck. My training partner got it on his leg..It's pretty easy to spot, and diagnose. You can usually tell by the rings that appear on the skin. public gyms can be a hotbed for contracting things like ring worm, athletes foot, Mersa, Yeast ?

I have been using some lamasil (Clotrimazole 1%) for it. However, it's been 3 weeks and it hasn't gone away yet..

I heard that Bleach kills it instantly?  Can anyone confirm this?  

doesn't kill it instantly .. but a few days at most

mix the bleach 3:1 with water and use a q-tip to apply it on your neck ( try to do it a few times using another q-tip each time and letting it dry in between ) you could use a band-aid with the pad moistened with the solution on over night on your foot  .. full strength will burn and could scar .. on your foot that may be alright .. but I'm thinking you don't want a scar on your neck




You need to eat more beans and play less x-box. you've been very negative lately, Johnny Crow.

Sodium Hypochlorite (chlorine bleach) was a treatment for Trench Foot (fungal infection) during World War One...When I was a kid in deep suburban/semirural Houston... me and my brother would go wading in drainage culverts in the neighborhood after rainstorms...We were perpetually infected...Pediatrician had mom soak our feet in a dishpan of water with a cup of Clorox in it...straight bleach might be too strong.


NEVER us straight bleach for anything!  Think about it! You don't even clean your toilets with straight bleach!  Dilute it by at least half.

Good idea, on diluting the bleach and applying it with a q-tip. Have you tried this method yourself?

Or a cotton ball for larger areas.

Obviously, it's highly contagious, so do your best not to spread it to others or back to yourself.  It's not just caught from skin to skin contact.  It can be picked up from surfaces.

I'm pretty shure ringworms is something you get in the ass, be sure to apply a generous dosage of bleach.

You realize it is not in that spot, but rather in your bloodstream.  You treat the spot other active parts could just "move" somewhere else.

go to rxprohub.com and purchase Lamisil TABLETS.  Take one a day for as long as you see a spot and then keep going for an extra 7 days after the spot is gone.  It kills from the inside out and not just treats the most obvious spots.

It's not that bad to have to use oral anti-fungal agents..

However, bleach is working great IMO..It has stopped itching..
