Athletes Foot

Athletes foot is not something you would normally think of going to an acupuncturist for treatment but I have had success treating a case where a skin doctor said it was the worst case he had ever seen! It took a few months but it finally went away. I did not use needles. Instead, I used the FSM protocol for wound healing with modifications to better treat the inflammation in the skin and the blood vessels just under the skin (The bottoms of the feet were very red and painful as well as peeling). The pain went down first along with some of the redness. The peeling skin was slower to go away but it did eventually. The treatment is painless. At most you might feel a slight tingling or stinging sensation. So if you have a bad case and the meds are not working, you do have another choice. It just takes a while.
