Went to the doctor multiple times and tried every cream, pill, and shot they had. None of it worked. They even told me not to sweat. Huh? After a while, they had no idea and had nothing to tell me.
So, I started looking into other means and that's when I came across ACV. I didn't believe it at first but I gave it a try. Lo and behold, it started having a positive affect.
In conjunction with colloidal oatmeal soap, cool showers, and keeping myself washed off more aggressively, the ACV has made a lot of difference. What it's doing internally? I have no clue.
As a bonus, it has really helped my stomach issues too. How that works, again, I have no idea. And it tastes pretty good with juice. The Walmart brand works fine and is more inexpensive. However, there are specialty brands which are good too.

That sounds kind of like a bacterial or fungal skin infection. They got some crap overseas that scares the hell out of penicillin. It may be that the vinegar is affecting the Ph balance of the living environment of the organisms and making life tougher on them , but better on you. If you aren't allergic to onions, you might try an onion-heavy diet for a while and see if that helps. I used to eat so many and get so saturated with onion that my sweat would even smell like onions. Not terribly good for the love life, but the oils in onions is antimicrobial, so it may help. Life is full of trade-offs I reckon!
So you take a tablespoon mixed into a glass of juice at a time?
.
More like 'however much I can stand in one glass' with some juice.
At first it was a tiny amount. After I got used to it, I could add more and be OK with it.
I never thought about the changing ph. That could very well be it.
