Second pic

Hi,

i wanted to send a second pic to my question asked. Below is a copy of my question. Thanks for any help you can offer.

"Hi,

My husband who is 47 has had itchy painful spots/sores on his lower legs for a couple months now. We have tried to use an antifungal cream (for athletes foot)on them. And we are currently on day two of using a new Lamisil AT Gel product that has "terbinafine gel 1%" says once a day for 7 days.

He has also had symptoms of athletes foot for years, itchiness etc but no actual visual symptoms. He also had a biopsy from his tongue done last fall and that came back as a fungal thing. Otherwise he has no other symptoms such as fever, swollen glands etc.

Is this just coinsidence with fungal things or could there be something else going on? Will the Lamisil take care of this or should he just go see his doctor? Is this contagious?

Also, there is a cat in the house (i thought this might be ringworm) and we have since taken her to the vet and she is fine and now on an anti flea, ringworm etc medication.

Thank you in advance for any help or insight you could tell us.

Kathy,

I think using our zinc and tea tree lotion will clear up this inflammation very quickly.

You can also use it on his athlete's feet.

Use twice daily until symptoms are gone and then once a day for at least a week or so afterwards.

Here is a link to the treatment:
