Guest guest Posted August 9, 2000 Report Share Posted August 9, 2000 Hi. About that weird rash.......sounds like chigger bites. Does it itch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 9, 2000 Report Share Posted August 9, 2000 This may seem odd, but could it be a candida rash?! Someone spoke of something like this on another chat line and I had had the same kind of thing (under my arms of all places!) the past couple summers. I mention this because of you telling that it appears to be spreading. Normally calendula does help. But try this (sticking with therapeutic quality oils)..... lavender, patchouly, lemon, rosemary and chamomile. Here's a formula that might be of help: 10 drops patchouly with 4 drops lavender, 2 drops blue chamomile and 5 drops lemon. Use 2-4 drops each use. Or you could try this: 3 drops rosemary with 6 drops lavender. Use 2-4 drops each use. A nice rose ointment would be very soothing as well. I hope you let us know how this goes for you.
