Posted on Mon, 23 Jun 2014
Question: I have been using 73% sulfur mixed with baby lotion for three days ivermectin for two days and now going to just put baby oil on for four days an then the sulfur and ivermectin then four days of baby oil for a month. Do you think that will be long enough treatment or should i do it for longer? But my skin is real red on my neck and real itchy all over is there anything else besides baby oil i can use to put moisture back in my skin? What can i use in my hair because so many site say to do your head and then just as many say you dont have to treat it. So which one is true?
