Guest guest Posted November 25, 2006 Report Share Posted November 25, 2006 Dear Mr , guruji. you give long explanations and cleanliness advices for athletes foot. Here in India I cure with a 100% guarantee this disease with in a month unless you know the right medicine you can not cure the disease. of course this medicine wont be to the norms of the health department there . no matter patient needs a permanent remedy. I suggest you one thing. make a paste of peeper nigrum collect cow's urine just boil it just for sterilization mix peeper psate and apply on foot or hand keep one hour and then wash. cows urine contains most powerful anti fungals which will cure the disease or simply send the patient to me Allopathic practitioners prescribe betamethosone tablets and worsens the condition of the patient. modern antifungals are very week they never produce results.
