You can’t. You need to see a dermatologist.

Hello,
There are different causes for infections like various fungi or bacteria species, and some things that look like infections but are not. They are other kinds of skin conditions. To be able to answer your question, I would need more information about what it is that you are actually trying to treat, and other personal information that would be obtained during a medical visit regarding lifestyle; things which would contribute to immune system function. So, unfortunately, I cannot answer your question with the limited information here. Please consult a local naturopathic doctor or dermatologist for assistance.
