Dianne,  Gentian violet works for ringworm-a fungal infection.  My kids would
get this infection after playing in some swampy areas(Florida) or so it
seemed.  First time it happened I did the over-the-counter stuff and then
prescription stuff, nothing worked.  I called a midwife and she told me
gentian violet.  Sure enough it clears up in about 24-48 hours with gentian
violet.  Valerie W. McClain, IBCLC
