I've been dealing with a really persistent ringworm infection for about a year now. I've seen a few dermatologists and the treatments they gave me worked while I was taking them, but as soon as I finished the course, the infection just came right back. I've tried using ointments like Terbifine and Onabet, and more recently, Dk gel, Nailrox cream, and tablets like Itaspor and Xyzal. I even used Absorbz soap. I used everything as prescribed up to last month, but here I am again, facing the same itching and rashes. Is there any way to get rid of this permanently?

View allI've read that barium sulfate can be used in preparing soap for removing permanent unwanted hair. Is that safe to use? I'm worried because I don't know much about how barium sulfate works and if it has any side effects on the skin. Can you explain this to me and whether it's a reliable method?
Using soap combined with any substance like barium sulfate for hair removal would not provide any significant results and could potentially cause irritation or harm to the skin. Always choose clinically tested and proven methods for hair removal.
