As a child, I ended up with ringworm on my arms. The doctor asked if any of our pets had them. Which they didn't. Come to find out that ringworm can be picked up from the dirt, grass, etc.. I had trouble trying to get rid of it, meds after meds. Then this little old lady that rented from my folks told them to soak tobacco then apply it 3 to 4 times a day. By golly it worked! I have scars from them. Marie [Posted in FML 6459]
