Tea tree oil for treating- skin infections

Tea tree oil cure for-  Nail fungus, ringworm, athlete’s foot and other infections, as it has  natural antifungal and antibacterial properties. 
Some people believe it can relieve vaginal yeast infections. 

To use- It works  very well when applied topically to the infected tissue. It can also be used  in a natural oil base treatment for head lice.

Beware- Dilute it before using: At full strength, it can irritate the skin, especially in sensitive spots (such as genitals). Best is to mix 50% tea tree oil and 50% olive oil. If the 50/50 mix causes redness or irritation, it can be further diluted.
