The fungal nuisance on Greedy Baby was in a very inconspicuous place — right under the neck. Ringworm is highly contagious, so I didn’t beat myself up about her catching it, yet felt I had failed for not noticing it sooner.

By the time I spotted the ringworm, it was red & swollen and huge. I applied Lotrimin for a few days, which is hailed as one of the best over the counter treatments for ringworm. While small parts of the ringworm were going down, for the most part it continued to stay red, inflamed and grow larger.
After several days of frustration, I ditched the Lotrimin completely and began applying colloidal silver gel
Directions ~ Colloidal Silver for Ringworm: Apply colloidal silver gel
This treatment can also be used on animals.

January 24, 2015 at 10:16 pmHi Cassandre. I hope you never have to deal with ringworm with the kids, but don’t be scared it if pops up. You can easily fight it!

January 24, 2015 at 11:16 amRingworm is in the environment, especially in the soil. It’s a common fungus. The fact is that we wash it away most of the time before it can get a hold on the skin and infect us. That’s why children and pets, who don’t wash themselves as well, are most likely to get it.
And it is developing a resistance to the most common anti-fungals. We have foster kittens coming down with it all of the time, and the shelter last year had to take drastic steps to eradicate it. Thank you for letting me know colloidal silver will get the job done! It will be easier to battle if it comes back this kitten season.

October 12, 2015 at 9:27 pmRingworm is not that serious. It is not a worm it is a fungus! Fungus are everywhere. I am diabetic and I have had outbreaks of ringworm on my legs several times. As my Dr says your diabetic and you have had high blood sugar levels. Fungus feeds on sugar thus fungus likes me. I have taken pills and used prescription creams, colloidal silver works fastest and best!

February 16, 2017 at 9:18 amI’m still suffering for this so call ringworm😿. It’s been more than months haven’t get rid of it. I tried everything but it doesn’t work at all. What should I do to get rid of it as soon as possible and faster too.??
Hannah Pafford says
July 10, 2017 at 9:19 amput colloidal silver into a spray bottle and try that.. I am doing that for my Chihuahuas and it is the only thing that is working. RIngworm is a living hell and my whole family got it. I was constantly washing and bleaching everything and cleaning the environment nonstop. I am even vacumming every day!!

February 9, 2018 at 7:08 amHello, which brand of colloidal silver gel did you use? Neither Sovereign nor ASAP 10 manufacture a gel. Thanks!
yumyucky says
February 21, 2018 at 10:11 amHi Linda. For the gel, I use the Silver Miracles brand found here http://amzn.to/2GycJUa as well as the American Biotechs brand here http://amzn.to/2BGlxIx
I have both of them at home and they both work the same. When it’s time to buy a new gel I simply see which price is better at the time.
