StudentI got some kind of a bite on the top of my left foot about where my ankle joint is, working in the garden last July. I used some Ess Oils on it and thought it was almost healed up. Then a rash started. I have used Ess Oils, used a Mullein poultice and also Homeopathy remedies(most useful for the intense itching now) but the rash was spreading and has also started on my rt foot. I have gotten some kind of bites since then and am thinking that the rash is from allergic reactions to these bites. I get to itching in other parts of my body and then a rash forms there also. I have been using Oregano Ess oil in coconut oil and it seems to be helping keep the rash from spreading the last few weeks. I am very sensitive to pharm medications. Any suggestions what kind of herbs would be most beneficial for me to try would be appreciated. I just started this class and so excited to learn all I can about natural protocols for my health. Thanks so much to Doc Jones for creating this !!! 🙂

StudentTo start, I’d use some plantain topically to see about drawing anything toxic out of where the rash is, and then take some burdock root internally to help out the liver process everything better. Other people here will have good suggestions too, but that’s where I’d start

StudentI have a different skin rash issue I would love some help with. I have a 53 year old female client who developed what was diagnosed initially as shingles, then re diagnosed as cellulitis on her lower stomach back in February. She has done a 7 day round of antibiotic, essential oils, cortisone creams, antifungal creams, oatmeal baths, etc. When I saw her it was better than it was at it’s worst stage, but still weeped sometimes, causes pain sensation in her belly button, her clothes rubbing on it makes it very sensitive. I showed her how to make Doc’s wound poultice into a salve, that helped for a time, but it is still causing issues.
Her med hx is rheumatoid arthritis, brain surgery in 2020, hysterectomy 2005.
meds/supplements include: Ningxia, Sulfurzyme, Mineral essence, Herbal teas, Plaquenil, Vitamins B, C, D K (taken Daily)
allergic to Codeine
Non Smoker, very little alcohol, frequent caffeine, frequent red meat (they are hunters), frequent fish, frequent chicken/fowl.
She experiences gas/bloating, bruises easily, fibromyalgia, but has an energy level of 8/10, sleeps well.
Any insight on where to go from here would be helpful. Thanks in advance!

StudentHello Aubrie,
Have you ever considered Castor Oil or Aloe Vera for your client ?
Oh, what peace we often forfeit, Oh, what needless pain we bear,
All because we do not carry, everything to God in prayer!
