lol f*** u cookie lol
pm me? ya?
Get well, homie. Yesterday, the doctor told me I couldnt train for a few weeks, and I started crying. A 30yr old man crying because he can't train. lol We'll both get well, and will continue training. Good luck, bro.
Ring worm is just a fungal infection. You just put cream on it and it goes away in no time. Happened to me just as I left for a vacation.. worse part of my vacation by far.. but it was gone in no time once I got cream for it.
Staph.. I haven't gotten it.. but I don't think its a reason to end your study. Maybe post pone it till your better.
It's not a death sentence to you or your jits. I have had both.

Over reacting much?
Take acidophilus pills everyday. The friendly bacteria in there helps keep the ringworm and staph away, I've been taking it for 7 years and I used to get ringworm alot :)
Yes
Thx eddie
Imma get some 10th planet leggings as well so i wont get it on my legs again
thx man good luck
Get better soon
MAN, I thought dude was gonna say he destroyed his knees or something...yikes.
Get better dude.
Ya big disappointment huh? Lol and thx
I have debated not competing due to fear of staph - ringworms not so much. I still haven't decided if I will compete again.
I didnt know that u need a cut to get staph
So thats out the picture its just rongworm coming back
Your JJ career is not over.Quote:

Go see your Dr, get some pills kill it off, rest up, you'll be back soon.
Ya man thx
I make a mountain out of an ant hill constantly
Imma start wearing some leggings as well
Oh, if the staph doesn't respond to antibiotics and your MD thinks it might be MRSA, let me know, there's a ton of chinese herbs that can be used on antibiotic resistant staph with great success, including but not limited to Huang Qin (Scutellaria Baicalensis).
As for the ring worm get an over the counter athlete's foot cream and some dandruff shampoo. Wash the area with dandruff shampoo every night and then apply the athlete's foot cream to the affected area when it's clean and dry. Both of those are cheap OTC antifungals.
Oh it isnt staph cuz i dont have a cut where the red mark is
And what does the dandruff shampoo do?
Thankfully you responded with a useful tip. I was starting to get paranoid reading this post. I just showered after my first training session of the day. I have to make 139 on Friday for NAGA. I also, just used for the very first time my new vaporizer. Let me tell you, you don't have to spend much cash to get really really HIIIIIIIIGH.Quote:

lol jk but nice phone case for your evo
where did u get it? i wanna get a clear one like that
i wonder if you can buy acidophilus pills from like GNC shops....anyone know? i am litereally clueless where i can get some
I had acne on my face and got staff couple months ago. Whatever kind it was it was not real bad. Took some pills and I'm fine.

Fungal infections.................. are pretty easy to treat but can stay with you for life if you don't treat them properly.
The protocol for a recurrent chronic fungal infection is simple.
#1 kill it
#2 strengthen immune system
#3 limit environmental factors that will contribute to its reoccurrence (IE preventing retained moisture build up or avoiding rolling on the floor in a public shower).
So, the reason why Eddie is recoming Acidophilis is #2, the intestinal probiotic can help keep the immune system strong but will do nothing about an active infection. Other supplements that will help with this would be Ling Zhi (ganoderma lucidum, AKA reishi mushroom don't buy this or or other herbs at GNC their chinese herbs are crap quality. also you want fruiting body NOT mycelium on this herb).
At the same time you want to kill the infection. Dandruff shampoos are basically shampoo + an antifungal so its a cheap easy way to clean the area. Athlete's foot creams are another topical over the counter anti fungal.
If you want to go all herbal their's a great topical antifungal fluid called Yin Care which you can find online. They don't sell that directly from the manufacturer unless you're a medical practitioner though, and if its more than $19.99 a bottle the wholesaler is marking it up.

ahahahaha a year ago my doctor told me I would never be able to compete and I had the worse knee damage he had ever seen. I'm back on the mats. 100%. didn't let it stop me. You're trippin over a little ringworm? This ain't shit bro trust me you'll get through it.
"ya its like $160 xD but its worth it!!!!
how long do you think i should use the leggings and rashguard b4 i wash it?
cuz the board shorts, and ankle supports i will wash every week"
"damn your killing me man!!
im gonna be going through hundreds of dollars of soap wash!! "
Might be the source..
yeah gnc, vitamin world pretty much any type of vitamin shop would have themQuote:

It is not %100 but will lower the chances of staph and ringworm to a minimum.
Ps: I have eczema so I am prone to getting ringworm and I can't kill it with lotrimin etc.. I end up using prescription pills and stuff, so shower has been the best option for me so far. Believe it or not there is a difference between showering right after and showering at home 2 hours after the training was over. Every second you spend with that fungus on your skin or staph over a superficial cut on your skin, you are increasing the chances of it to make its way under the skin and develop there.
Ya the gym doesnt have a shower
But i take a shower like 15 minutes after practice
+1, I just wish my gym had a shower.Quote:
