Athletes Foot.

Question

I have had athletes foot in between my toes since 2015. I have been backwards and forwards to the doctors with it since then. My GP has given me a range of different medications for it and they have not helped. 

I came off my arthritis medication for a year and a half whilst taking the athletes foot treatments as the arthritis medication suppresses my immune system and that has not helped. I'm currently on a treatment for the foot infection. 

I was wondering if anyone had any other tips or any suggestions for alternative treatments to help clear it up?

Thanks in advance. X x

Low cost treatment to try. Take a plastic square basin. Pour 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar, 3 tbsp. epsom salts, in water. Soak feet for 10 minutes a day. It is relaxing also.  For arthritis, epsom salts in a warm bath is great for muscle aches and pains relief. Add some essential oils and relaxing music. Hope this helps you.

Air...lots of it...barefoot or slip slops.....air...natural remedy....for arthritis...detox...I stay away from GP's..they make one substance dependent...works for most though...all in the mind..reduced body weight also helps and healthy diet..reduce junk food...reduce alcohol.....all the best..
