- Greetings All -
-
- Two weeks ago I had my best visit with an allopathic physician so far.
- Although her specialty is OB/GYN, I asked her about a Plantar's wart on
- the sole of my foot. She pegged me fairly well and suggested a garlic
- remedy. I'm to put the juice from a small clove on the wart each night,
- and it should be healed in 4-6 weeks. Anyone else ever try this, and what
- results did you have?
-
- Also, my partner has a bad case of Athlete's Foot. I use the Body Shop's
- Peppermint Foot Lotion, which seems to prevent the fungus from taking hold
- on my feet. But what to do about a case already in existence? Are the
- pricey drugstore remedies the best way to go, or are there alternative
- cures that people have tried?
-
- Thanks in advance!
-
