showering after exercise and covered in sweat gives you white spots?

[Jah_rastafar_I]

Wonder if this is true

I think the white spots are more of a symptom of mould growth on skin.

Used to suffer from them in my army days especially after a week long exercise with no chance to tuang back to camp for a bath.

I doubt it but the old folks remedy to treat this is to get a suntan

apply lemon juice on skin or drink it.

apparently, lemon juice is excellent for healing all types of skin conditions, good for health too.

Last time, you can bring your own bottle ( soy sauce bottle) go to the kedai, tell the provision store people top it up, & they will even provide you a cork , you pay & bring it home, or you can buy a small tin or order the entire kerosene tin to be delivered to the house.

Where can you find kerosene these days?? hardware store?? & you carry it around..you maybe frisked for being a terrorist..

Doubt it is garlic as the smell is very strong. Probably ginger.

In the past people will try all kinds of stuff including smelly roots mixed with hydrochloric acids. Life is a lot easier since. My skin doctor would give me a short course of meds to be taken internally. The stuff comes out from your pores and kill white spots. Alternatively, look for cremes or shampoos containing nixoral. Some are OTC. Most can be bought from friendly pharmacies in JB.

If you're desperate, you can splash urine on your body. Leave it on for a while before rinsing off.

The uric acid will kill the skin fungus.
