Description
This is not just any DIY jock itch — I suggest you use a strong concoction of essential oils, a vital carrier oil like coconut oil, a strong anti-inflammatory oil like neem oil alongside some apple cider vinegar, which acts as a potent antifungal agent.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ounces coconut oil
- 2 ounces neem oil
- 10 drops lavender essential oil
- 10 drops myrrh oil
- 5 drops tea tree oil
- [optional] 3 drops oregano oil
- 1 ounce apple cider vinegar
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients except for the apple cider vinegar (ACV) into a glass jar and blend well. (If the coconut oil is solid, simply put the closed jar with the mix in hot water, which will melt the coconut oil.)
- Next add the ACV to the mixture and blend.
- Clean and pat dry the affected area.
- Rub onto the affected areas twice daily — once in the morning and again at night.
- You may want to keep in the refrigerator to provide a cooling sensation for added relief.
Notes
You may experience layers of skin peeling off of you. This is normal. If irritation occurs, discontinue use or reduce the amount of essential oils by half and try again.
