Place the XLR8 over the area of involvement (AOI). The clinician may choose to (#2) laser over the nerve root (located using the myotome/dermatome chart) or the organ involved (using the Merrick chart).
Microsporum canis is a fungal species known as dermatophytes that causes numerous forms of disease and is a communicable pathogen. Ringworm can be found in a variety of environments and may survive for up to 15 months if left untreated. It feeds on the keratin on the outer layers of skin, hair and nails.
The main environment for Microsporum canis are cats and dogs; however, it can also be transmitted to humans through direct and indirect contact such as animals and fomites such as combs, brushes, hats, furniture, linens etc.
Prevention of Ringworm can be as simple as eliminate direct contact with infected animals and related fomites. If contact with infected areas of skin or infected animals is unavoidable, wash hands immediately after exposure. The shed skin of an infected mammal may also spread infection so wash/change bedding as frequently as possible.
The Erchonia violet/red laser does provide significant treatment improvement.
Perform "Cleanse the Blood" if thought to be systemic.
