Killed Scabies or Fungus in a Week!

I live in the country and my doctor is in the city, so it's hard to see her for every little thing. One day my neck started itching, and while I thought it was odd, I chalked it up to seasonal allergies.About a week later with my neck still low key itching, I suddenly felt little tiny raised bumps all along my neck. They were about the size of tiny skin tags. This alarmed me because my neck is quite smooth normally.After several internet searches, I speculated that I was at the beginning of a scabies outbreak and the itching was how I created microscopic tears in my flesh for the little buggers to enter through.At that point I began to bathe in Sulphur soap (thanks to ebay) and apply this cream liberally for another week. I resisted the urge to itch, which continued for many days. I also cleaned my sheets etc.Whether I actually had scabies or not, I was definitely experiencing some sort of outbreak localized to my neck. It may have been a fungal thing too. This cream, I am convinced, stopped whatever it was early in its tracks. I'm going to keep a bottle on hand for future.As for the folks saying it smells funny - it contains Neem oil, which kills scabies. I bought Neem oil separately, and it smells deeply earthy, almost yukky. So of course that smell might turn you off. Mostly though the peppermint cancels it out. I would put up with this smell ten times over to prevent the little bugs from living in my flesh again without a second thought.Thanks to whomever put this formula together - I'm so relieved not to have to go the doctor plus harsh prescription medicine route (which is in the pesticide family)!

Pros
  • Reduces the appearance of scarring
Cons
  • Could cause a burning sensation if applied to the sensitive skin around the eyes
