 Nixoderm
For skin problems – externally caused pimples,
blackhead, itching, rashes, ringworm of the skin and scalp.
Nixoderm is a firm ointment that adheres to the skin. Thus it is formulated
to keep active ingredients in contact with the skin for the maximum amount
of time. This gives better results than liquids or thin, greasy applications
that quickly run off. Give it a fair trial and you will benefit from its
medication.
Active Ingredients Benzoic
Acid ........................... 6%
Salicylic Acid ........................... 2.5%
Precipitated Sulphur ................. 4.6%
Treatment for Eczema, Pimples, Rash
When the skin is red, itching, burning, cracking or peeling, use care in
cleaning your skin and do not use harsh or irritant soaps. After cleansing,
apply gently but thoroughly a liberal amount of Nixoderm so that the entire
surface is covered.
This should be done twice daily, in the morning and the evening. The
treatment should be followed for seven days then discontinued for three days
and resumed for a further seven days. Continue this pattern of treatment
until the condition has cleared up. If the skin problem persists after
prolonged treatment, you should consult your doctor.
Treatment for Foot Itch
Itching, cracking, peeling and scaling of the skin of the feet, on the
soles, and in between the toes usually is caused by a germ or parasite which
burrows deep down under the skin. This is a stubborn condition and usually
requires treatment over a considerable period of time. On account of the
germs being buried under the skin, it often seems that the feet are entirely
healed, and then it will break out again. For that reason it is well to
follow the treatment for two or three weeks after the skin seems to be well.
It is helpful to bathe the feet for a few minutes twice a day – morning and
evening – in a bowl of warm water to which has been added 2 tablespoons of
table salt and 1/2 tablespoon of baking soda. The feet should then be fried
thoroughly and apply gently but thoroughly a liberal amount of Nixoderm into
the affected area, paying special attention to the areas between the toes.
This should be done twice daily, in the morning and the evening. The
treatment should be followed for seven days then discontinued for three days
and resumed for a further seven days. Continue this pattern of treatment
until condition has cleared up. this is one of the most stubborn skin
conditions, hence symptoms may disappear only to re-emerge.
Therefore it is recommended that treatment continue for three weeks after
symptoms have disappeared. Clean panty hose and socks (preferably cotton)
should be worn and changed every day. This same condition often affects the
hands – the same method of treatment applies.
Treatment for Ringworm
Ringworm is due to fungus which burrows under the surface of the skin and is
evidenced by round or circular red blotches on the skin.
In treating this condition, apply gently but thoroughly a liberal amount of
Nixoderm twice daily, in the morning and the evening. the treatment should
be followed for seven days then discontinued for three days and resumed for
a further seven days. Continue this pattern of treatment until condition has
cleared up. This is also one of the most stubborn skin conditions, therefore
it is recommended that treatment continue as long as it is necessary.
Your skin and Nixoderm Diet
has a major effect on skin problems; eating fresh vegetables and reducing
the amount of fat in your diet can help avoid them. Should they arise
however you will find that Nixoderm can be soothing and curative treatment.
When Nixoderm is first applied to extremely sensitive skin, it can cause
smarting. To avoid this, apply a thin layer of petroleum jelly before the
application of Nixoderm; this need only be done for the first few
applications since your skin will become accustomed to Nixoderm's effect.
