METHOD FOR TREATING IMPETIGO AND THE LIKE

摘要

A method for the topical treatment of skin affected with a dermatological condition selected from the group consisting of impetigo, epidermolysis bullosa, eczema, neurodermatitis, psoriasis, pruritis, erythema, hidradenitis suppurativa, warts, diaper rash, jock itch, and combinations thereof. For most conditions, sodium chloride, in a substantially pure form as a solid block, is topically applied to the affected skin by gently gliding the block over the affected skin in a manner insufficient to cause abrasion and debridement of the affected skin. For certain conditions, such as epidermolysis bullosa, sodium chloride in the form of an aqueous solution preferably should be used. The applied sodium chloride is left on the skin.
