Natural Remedies for a Skin Infection

I have had a hard year with a wandering itchy rash and many changing symptoms and plan to visit your clinic. While in a villiage near Tasala in NSTammerat a lady saw my weeping sores on my feet and went off and got me a bright yellow powder and mixed it with coconut oil and applied a thick paste on the feet.

Wthin a few days the sores had dried, but the itch still means I scratch them ( not hard) in deep sleep, and they open up very quickly again.

The powders name she called "supan'', said as in Supan Buri. She said the supan was a type of tree. She pulverizes and dries its inner bark to a powder.

Old sanskrit defines 'Suphan' as gold. I can find no other reference to it except this colour. Its a very effective skin drying agent, and so cheap she gave me a pack.

EC: Hi Dean,

Thank you for your wonderful feedback!
