Natural Home Remedies to Treat Ringworm

Ringworm is a fungal skin infection that is caused by Tinea or dermatophytes. It causes scaly, itchy rashes, which are often painful, and may release pus. If not treated on time, Ringworms can worsen and even cause a high fever. Without optimal hygiene and precaution, ringworms tend to reappear over time. The most common treatment for this fungal infection is an OTC ringworm cream. 

It is common in children and also occurs in adults who are into sports and athletics. While OTC ringworm creams are the prevalent treatment, most of them have synthetic components that can be harmful to the skin. You can switch to a natural antifungal cream for a skin-friendly and effective treatment. 

Let’s look at some natural home remedies to treat ringworm

• Rinse your infected skin with soap and water to remove dirt and moisture from the rash. Moisture is the breeding ground for the fungus, and once you remove it, you can stop the spreading of the infection. Apply a natural antifungal cream or powder to keep the skin dry and soothe it. 
• You can topically apply apple cider vinegar to the infected skin as it has great antifungal properties. Soak a cotton ball in diluted apple cider vinegar and dab it onto the skin. It helps kill the fungus quickly and aids recovery. 
• Tea tree oil is one of the multipurpose essential oils that helps in various skin problems like acne, scars, and infections. It has antifungal properties that can curb the growth of the fungus and soothe the skin. Unlike synthetic ringworm creams, natural antifungal creams have essential oils as components for natural healing.
• Aloe vera has a soothing effect that can calm down the irritation and heal blisters and red skin around the ringworm. Cut a small piece of aloe and apply it directly to the skin.
• Coconut oil has microbial and antifungal agents that remove the infection and also helps with curing the scar left behind. You can use it to treat ringworm that appears on the scalp.
• Tumeric has been known for centuries to be a natural and medicinal healing agent that can cure almost all ailments. It has antifungal and anti-inflammatory properties that prevent the growth of the fungus. 

Switch to nature with a natural antifungal cream 

Synthetic ringworm cream may be a good option for emergency treatment of the infection. But for recurrent ringworm, it is not advisable to use synthetic components on your skin. A natural antifungal cream heals your skin without any side effects and nurses it back to health naturally.
