Posted: 06 May 2008 at 9:56pm |
ok so we have had this skin infection thing going round the family scince febuary. And it just won't go away we have cleaned everything with antibactiral stuff including ourselves just when we think we have it beat someone else get's another one my house smell's like a hospital we just can't get rid of it I am going completly crazy.  I am back to the doc tomorrow to get more antibiotic's couse this is for me so this is going to cost me again!!!. Not to mention if I can't convince the doc to give me a script for DH then he will have to go in as well. I am actually feeling really stink about going to back to her again about this she prob think's I can't clean and we live in a pig pen or something. Short of burning the entire content's of my home and starting again I really don't know what else we can do to get rid of it. well rant over sorry ladies I am just out of pactience with this thing so if anyone has any advice please let me know. I want this thing gone.

Ask for a few repeats on the script so that you have some tubes for DH.

Becks' we have been using anti'b cream its not been working so we actually need to get oral anti'b.
Mel its just common school sores we prob got them from the pool's in summer. I know they can be really hard to get rid of, but never knew we would still have them this far down the track.

A capful of janola in the bath water will help rid the bath and your body of the staph infection on the skin called Impertigo. This is very safe and effecive for families with ongoing sores or boils. I hope this helps

Have you been using the canasten/dettol inwash stuff for clothing etc? we found that helped when it attacked our flat a few years ago (dont worry, I feel your pain)
I confess to using janola in the bath - man it helps! Or if you're not game enough for that, good old pinetarsol as well.

I'd be careful with both the kids in the bath with janola in case they get it in their eyes, but it should be fine for Mikey's skin so if you can keep it out of his eyes it's a miracle cure.

I feel your frustration. After one of my practicums I came up with this horrible itchy skin, and because I suffer from bad eczema just thought it was that. I finally went to the dr, and I had scabies, I felt ill when he told me. They gave me treatment for it, but didn't mention that all of us needed to be treated. After a week I went back and asked for enough cream for the whole family. Finally got rid of it. But still felt disgusting.

With only a capful or a half of a capful depending on the bath size will be fine for the kids eyes. As long as they are not hanging out under water with their eyes open for long amounts of time it is perfectly safe. This remedy is endorsed my a skin specilist that came to do a presentation at the DHB last yesr.
Just an option for ridding a house where reccurent infection is a problem.
