Activated Charcoal

I took that for about 5 days.
Make sure you drink enough water and follow directions on bottle (if you take medicine and supplements take them 2 hours before or after).

I have had a rash or red spots on various parts of the body they come and then go then come again. Now pain in feet but not spots there. Very strange trying to diagnose this. Had this for 45 days or so never thought of the charcoal which I do have.

I have a tip for treating diaper rash; clean the baby as you normally would, then use an antibiotic wipe (like Wet Ones) over the rash area, THEN apply the rash ointment. The rash will clear up within no time.

Been noticing that 3-4 hours after going to the bathroom, the skin on my bottom forms an uncomfortable red rash. Started researching and found a site where contributors said they experienced the same with the Mr. Wipple brand. Ours is Nxxxxxxx brand but something's in it that I must be allergic to as we have a bidet and use it daily. Scary to imagine what manufacturers are putting in these products. Time for TP research!

Good day.... I'm John from Philippines.. , last week ( saturday) I've accidentaly cut myself and then on Thursday I've had a fever with headache and can't sleep. Then the following day I noticed there were tiny red spot in my skin and then the fever continues for about 5 days on and off. Maybe because in the 4th day I decided to take antibiotics and paracetamol... Today its 2nd day of fever free, but still can't sleep and my urine is kinda green, and the redspot or rashes for some are reducing. By the way, the red spots are in my neck, forehands and feet...
Thanks, please help me know my health problem.

John, the best thing to apply to the rash is Iodine. It will kill most bacterias on contact. I would also take some internally (lugols) to kill off any infection you may still have.

I have horrid prickly heat all over torso upper back few on arms. I'm allergic to aloe and benedryl so I'm super excited to try Apple Cider Vinegar. I've used hydrocortisone, anti fungal which dried some out but the heat and sweating with lotions on made it worse. It's awful and my stomach looks disgusting with scabs and peeling skin. Thanks for the great info. With puffy eyes, my dogs mange and this rash I'm stocking up on ACV first thing in the morning xx

My dad got me cortisone cream and it flared. apparently i found out at that time that cortisone feeds yeast! i got to thinking i had a yeast infection on my hand!!! i did try ACV it brought relief but i think the infection was too deep. Or that the ACV would of worked better mixed with a cream... it would clear to reemerge once the skin became dryer again. I was so convinced it was a yeast infection...
One day i told my dentist what i thought and she helped me get some cold sore medication... nyaderm/betaderm.. just to say it was antifungal!!! after 3 days the rash never came back.... i know its not a natural cure but just to say had i made a something with garlic or you know something antifungal the rash would of left.
since that time ive formed a belief that almost all health problems stem from mycotoxins or fungus/yeast living in human tissue. i still have a coated tongue and in my best efforts have only been able to partially clear it up. sucking on a tablet for candida did clear it up for a few hours, enough for hope but yeah thats expensive.

For your mouth and body as a whole try Oil Pulling. Google it. It is great for the entire body because it removes toxins. Continue doing it twice daily. Go on a yeast free diet. Clean every single thing in your home and continue to disinfect everything as the days pass.
Continue to treat the candida with a variety of potions including oregano oil, coconut oil, epsom salt and baking powder poltices, etc. Yeast is a living organ that mutates and mimics other diseases. You have to be persistent. Eventually the balance is struck.

Hello.. I'm really big on home remedies, which is why I come here a lot. When you said fungus/yeast I thought of this.. Candidas infections are caused also by what is in regular food supply.. Sprayed on vegetables and injected in animals.. I.E. Antibiotics and hormones! ... Causing all kinds of maladies.. Including rashes. I went organic.. The white on my tongue is gone now.. And, I no longer get chapped hands in winter which is odd, .. Since I'd get really bad just a few days when weather turned cold here. And, my son's allergies are gone. I still have a skin rash, but it's getting better without doing anything else to it. Detoxing would be a good thing to try. That's the thing.. we're 'detoxing' from the toxins we get from our own regular food supply itself, which is why I went organic.

So I just put some ACV on and the rash intensified. Is that normal ?

Dear Tusshay,
If the rash intensified, I would probably try a different remedy. Extra Virgin Coconut oil, perhaps. If you want to describe your rash more, some here may have ideas for what you might try.

Heat rash: The stuff I'm reading hear sounds like what I have. Itchy as heck, bite like marks. When I picked them, the scab went really hard after a day. Strong scabs too.
So I'm trying the Apple Cider Vinegar now. Thank goodness for this site. I have been a fan of Earth Clinic for a couple years now.
Whoosh, I was thinking that this stuff was really bad. LOL

NOPE! It only made my skin worse and the rash spread from the back of my neck to the front. Now I looked terrible and the rash was painful. So I figure if ACV is the cause then the opposite must be the cure.
I took some coconut oil and baking soda and made a paste. Put that all over the rash and let it set for about five minutes. It stung and burned but I was already suffering from the ACV treatments which were worse.
Well I took a shower, washed away all residue of the paste and gently dried my skin. Once it dried it was very DRY. The rash was already healing from drying out. That night it crusted over with scabs and today my skin is still dry and by tomorrow I should be able to peel the scabs away. Hope so because the scabs are stiff and look horrible.
Thank goodness I didn't keep up with the vinegar thinking it will work eventually. Sometimes the cure is worse than the disease. I just want people to know that if you have a bad reaction to something STOP and rethink the situation. Don't just keep going because other people said it works for them.
Anyway, the type of skin irritation I had didn't take to ACV, but ACV still works for other ailments for me.

Please be sure to dilute the vinegar with water for the first few treatments especially for babies with diaper rash. You can slowly decrease the water with each application.

Hey Elizabeth,
I have seen success by using coconut oil applied topically. You might also make sure you are getting some internally.
Lots of causes to skin itching. Lack of minerals to chronic liver issues or kidneys not functioning properly; and taking medication the body is allergic to.
No nausea...right? If poisoning, you'd likely find organ issues and I'm presuming there are not other serious matters going on.
Could be something you are allergic to ... clothes you are wearing being washed with a perfumed soap.
What foods might you be allergic to? Since this is during the day...later in the day, it sounds like something you are around or consuming during the day and then the reaction occurs.
Keep trying out by process of elimination. You'll figure it out.

Elizabeth - it could be your laundry detergent. It happened to me - as the day wore on, I'd get itchier and itchier all over. This went on for about 2 years. I finally tried an all natural detergent in lieu of my beloved Tide ... problem solved!

Hey listen! Quit chemotherapy! Please I have seen people's health deteriorating using that poison! Please use anoda/graviola juice. I would prefer fresh. Type anoda fruit on google. That's harmless obviously and a beautiful cure. I just want to help at least one person if I can't help the whole world :)

I don't know why folks say stop the chemo. In my case, I'm not the one taking it but I am the one trying to fix the things I have control over. My loved one chose chemo. I just want to know how to relieve/ease his pain. Also, you can't undo a lifetime of bad influences just by starting today to take good care of yourself. My loved one was exposed to agent orange, asbestos, jet fuel, starvation as a pow--I'm just trying to make his last year(s) comfortable.

I started with organic ACV from the grocery store. It was $5.00. I mixed 1/2 cup ACV with 1/2 cup water, grabbed a paper towel and dabbed it all over my body. It stung badly, but my rash was pretty itchy at the time. In literally TWO MINUTES, the swelling of my bumps decreased dramatically, so much so that I started taking pictures to send my mom.
I went to bed, woke up in the middle of the night itchy again, so I dabbed myself liberally again (it still stung), and the itching stopped again after about 2 minutes of hopping around and swearing. Thye next morning I woke up to a very diminished rash! Over the next three days, the big bumps flattened and dried. Then they started peeling and fading to nothing. The second day, I stopped dabbing with paper towels, and started taking 15 minute luke warm baths, morning and night, with about 4-5 cups of the good apple cider vinegar. I also got a spray bottle for any itching emergencies that came up during the day. After the third day, there haven't been any! The transformation has been so rapid and so remarkable that I went back to my doctor. She confessed she has pretty severe eczema, has been on steroid reams for a long time to very little use, and will now try ACV!
Thank you, so much, all the people who contributed their stories! If there hadn't been so many people who told of their success, I'd never have tried it myself. I'm a changed woman! And now, I'm curious -- what other home remedies are there that I never knew about?

Back to bed for me! Thank you earth clinic and the many people who have posted of your experiences. ACV is definitely a need to have, not only in your kitchen, but also in your bathroom cabinet.

Finally, after reading these posts, this worked for me is 1) 2x day lather rash with Grandpa's Pine Tar Soap. It gives temporary relief due to the ingredient coconut oil. 2) natural aloe vera gelly (as close to 100% as you can get) and 3) apple cider vinegar COMPLETELY CURED the rash! I applied it with a cotton ball to the rash 2x a day and it has dried up. After the first use, my rash was not itchy within 1 hr. The next day it was 50% better. Now after 4 days of use, my skin is not bumpy and the rash is disappearing.

I tried Tinactin, b/c I thought it was ringworm, but no-go. Vick's vaporub did nothing, and I tried ACV one time on a small spot on the back of my hand, and it made the rash spread and take over my whole hand and start creeping up my arm. After using neem oil, neem leaf extract, coconut oil, tea trea oil and fresh garlic, I still couldn't get rid of it!! I came back here and re-read all the ACV comments. At this point, my hands were so swollen from washing, scrubbing and itching I was having trouble typing -- and I write for a living.
ACV straight from the bottle, on a cotton ball, is what finally worked. It didn't make the rash spread this time; it dried all the tiny blisters out and the awful itching and pain have stopped. In the past, the itching has always gotten so bad the only way I could avoid clawing my skin off was to run my hands under hot water or blow a hot hair dryer on them. This kept me from making things worse :( Now, it's the second day of 3x/day ACV applications, and the healing is miraculous. My skin is still thick and "bubbly" and my fingers still look like sausages, but the skin is dry and flaking off and the little blisters are all popping and healing. The itching stopped for the most part after the first application. I'm definitely glad I tried ACV again. I was losing sleep every single night because my hands felt so itchy and painful.
