SWAMI RAM ADVICE ON SKIN PROBLEMS

In my work as a swami for the last 25 years, I have found that one of the most irritating problems in the category in human health is “skin problems.” They are sometimes referred to as “athlete’s foot,” “psoriasis,” “ringworm,” “jock itch,” and so on.

In my experience with people who have these skin problems I have found out that a lot of these skin diseases are formed on the outside body of a person by a nest of bacterial viruses and/or fungus. Many times if the doctor cannot assess what type of bacteria is creating the fungal disease, he/she will refer to it as athlete’s foot, ringworm, or some other type of fungus. I have tried to use many of the recommended cream and ointments by doctors and I have found that some are affective temporarily, some not effective at all, and some very effective in curing the problem.

The following is a list of creams and skin products I have tested and their results are shown below each cream:

TARO – TOLNAFTATE 1% ANTIFUNGAL CREAM (ATHLETE’S FOOT)

TUMERIC SKIN CREAMS – AYURVEDIC CREAMS

In my experience I have found out that lots of TOOTHPASTE are very effective in removing the bacteria before the application of any of the above creams, and then good results are obtained. Some of the most effective toothpaste is listed below…

MESWAK – WITH MIWAK PLANT PURE EXTRACTS (TOOTHPASTE)

NEEM TOOTHPASTE – Tends to stop itching for Psoriasis, Skin

                                                          Eruptions and inflamed skin boils

LISTERINE TOOTHPASTE – removes ringworm itch and kills allergic skin rashes

DENTAL FLORIDE/PEROXIDE TOOTHPASTES –softens hard dead skin rashes so that it can be treated with creams and ointments 

Also some of the ANTIBACTERIAL CLEANING DETERGENTS have been very helpful in removing stubborn Skin rashes such as Flaky skin rashes which become white in color when dried  or Skin Rashes that build up into layers of dead skin where the itching is constant. Here’s a list of the Anti-bacterial detergents I have tested

LIQUID LISTERINE MOUTHWASH – very effective in removing itch from internal areas such as the Mouth, the Uterus or Vaginal inner areas, the rectum, and the inside penal area of the male…if there infections there. Please remember to dilute the Listerine by 50% before internal use or else the burning will be very strong.

MR CLEAN DETERGENT AND FLOOR CLEANER –Apply liquid with cotton wool as often as you can until the rash disappears. The lemon-flavored liquid is best

HYDROGEN PEROXIDE – Very effective for bleeding gums if gargled with water everyday. If taken as a gargle with water everyday, bad smelling mouth odors disappear…also it is very effective at cleaning open rashes and skin eruptions that itches.

FLORIDA WATER (COLOGNE) – Used generally as a cleansing agent, to stop the itches and stop further infections. It is somewhat expensive, but if you can buy enough to place it in a bucket or bowl, and soak the infected area in it for about 1 to 2 hrs, the infection will start weakening and disappear with other treatments eventually

There are other NATURAL SKIN REMEDIES, which I have tried and which are very successful:

1.Application of poultice consisting of a mixture of neem powder, aloe plant jelly, baking powder and Florida water as a mixing agent

2.Another poultice mixture is one consisting of Blue Soap, Cow Dung, Aloe gel, and Rice flour (grounded white rice)

3 .A bath everyday consisting of LIMES (not lemon), CAMPHOR and FLORIDA WATER, and A GALLON OF REGULAR WATER will relieve whole body itching and hair falling

There are many more natural ways that a skin irritation can be cured, besides using doctor recommended creams. You may write or see the Swami at the Heendu Learning Center Temple for more advice if you need it. I hope that this article has been helpful in removing your skin affliction. Please send you comments after you have used one the effective methods or creams and we will add it to our research list
