Cure scabies
How to treat scabies
Scabies is caused by a small mite that burrows under the skin. The skin burrows often become infected because they are open to the external skin. The end result is that scabies causes intense and often intolerable itching.
Scabies starts when the scabies mite gets under the skin. It is usually passed by close physical contact – most commonly in children at school, and then to their wider family.
A pregnant female scabies mite will dig down into the skin and lay eggs. These eggs hatch between three and ten days later and the scabies larvae move around in the skin – making the scabies itch worse. (more…)

Treatment for Athletes Foot
What is Athletes Foot?
Fungal infection on the foot – most often between the toes is known as athletes foot.
The condition can occur in anyone at any age – it is not restricted to athletes or sportsmen. Other conditions can cause dermatitis on the foot – including allergic reactions to the materials in the socks or shoes. Skin conditions like psoriasis or eczema can also be seen on the foot. If you are in doubt about the diagnosis of your foot rash then please consult your doctor.
Fungal infections thrive in warm and moist areas of the body – sweating, socks and training shoes create this ideal environment for fungal growth – leading to the athletes foot infection that many of us experience from time to time.
Itch is the main symptom of athletes foot. The skin around the athletes foot area often becomes dry, red, cracked or peeling.
Athlete’s foot can spread to the soles of the feet and to the toenails.
Some sufferers also develop fungal rashes in the groins or under the arms.

Ringworm treatment
What is Ringworm?
How to treat Ringworm
Ringworm is caused by fungal infection. The worm part of the name is misleading. There is no worm involved in the infection – the problem is due to a simple (usually harmless) fungal infection under the skin. Fungal infections grow outwards from a central point – producing an active redish edge as they grow. This red edge forms a ring shape and gives the condition its name. The same pattern can be seen in the grass of a lawn when fungal infection develops. When we were children we called these “fairy rings”

Treatment for Poison IvyPoison Ivy AllergyPoison Ivy ItchPoison Ivy, Poison Oak and Sumac cause problems every year for many people.
Sufferers experience a very itchy rash – often with blisters forming. This is due to a chemical called urishiol that is found in the sap of the plants. If this sap comes into contact with your skin it triggers an immune reaction – and this means that the next time you touch one of these plants you will experience a skin sensitivity allergic reaction – sometimes very severe.

Night Terrors
Child Night Terrors
Night terrors are not the same as nightmares and the two need different approaches from the parent. The best way to handle a night terror is not the same as the way most of us would deal with a child having a nightmare.
We all have dreams and a nightmare is really just a dream with unpleasant or scary content. Children seem to dream more than adults and as result they seem to have more nightmares. Children may also be less able to understand the difference between the dream state and reality – causing them to become distressed by the experience of the nightmare. (more…)
