Studies seem to show that colloidal silver can deactivate viruses, but it didn't seem to help MC for me. I used colloidal silver spray a few times while the MC was still developing as fleshy bumps in the months before it had made fully developed white cores.

I think you need some way to get the colloidal silver to fully absorb into the infected skin for it to deactivate the viruses. But because the MC virus first gets deep in the under layers of skin it's not easy to get the colloidal silver down there.

Methylene blue 0.1% and DMSO to help get the MB deeper into the skin + red light seemed to work much better for me.

My 8 year old son got MC about last winter and it spread like mad over the summer. First we tried apple cider vinegar - it worked a little but burned and itched. He also had so many lesions that I was concerned about spreading them every time I used a cotton ball to dab the ACV on. Tried clove oil (no change at all), tea tree oil (dried his skin out and itched), and boosted his immunity with vitamins and probiotics. Nothing worked until we tried Colloidal Silver. Within 2 days of ingesting 1 tsp/day and spraying his body topically, almost half of the lesions in his armpit (which was covered) were gone. He was also pain free from the itching and burning. We are 4 days in and every day the improvement is tremendous. I bought it over the counter at Whole Foods and can't believe the change. He is thrilled and I am so relieved that something finally worked!
