Description: Ring Worm refers to a fungus infection that affects the scalp, body, feet and the nails. It is also known as Tinea. In ringworm a red ring appears on the infected person’s skin. It is contagious and may spread with direct or indirect contact. Ringworm is caused by several different fungus organisms that belong to a group called Dermatophytes, derma means skin and phytes means organisms. The duration of the scalp ringworm is 10-14 days and that of skin ringworm is 4-10 days. Often topical anti-fungal like Cannestan or Nizral are used for treating Ring Worm. Splinter bean bark extracts are as effective as conventional topical anti-fungal in treating fungal infections. Most anti-fungal are hepato-toxic and Splinter bean bark extracts are comparatively much safer. Splinter bean is also known as Entada abyssinica, Tree entada, Abyssinia entada, Umusange, Mushangeshange and Tree entanda.
Directions For Use: Crush 50 Gms of Splinter bean bark into a fine fine paste adding a little water. Apply the paste on the affected site, thrice daily for two weeks. The potent fungicidal action of Splinter bean bark will remove all traces of Ring Worm in two weeks.

Side Effects: None are seen. Splinter bean bark is safe and well tolerated for treating Ring Worm.
Expected Results: The potent fungicidal action of Splinter bean bark will remove all traces of Ring Worm in two weeks.
