Rash is a broad term for any noticeable change in the skin’s appearance, texture, or color, often involving redness, bumps, blisters, scales, patches, or itching—ranging from mild and temporary to serious indicators of underlying issues. Common causes include allergic reactions (e.g., contact dermatitis from irritants like poison ivy, soaps, or jewelry, causing red, itchy, blistering patches where contact occurred), eczema (atopic dermatitis: dry, inflamed, intensely itchy areas often in skin folds), psoriasis (thick, silvery-scaled plaques on elbows/knees/scalp), hives (urticaria: raised, itchy welts that come and go quickly, often from allergies or stress), heat rash (prickly heat: small red bumps from blocked sweat ducts), infections (bacterial like impetigo, viral like chickenpox/measles/shingles with clustered blisters or widespread spots, fungal like ringworm), autoimmune conditions (e.g., the classic butterfly/malar rash across cheeks and nose in lupus), drug reactions, insect bites, or even systemic illnesses (e.g., viral exanthems in kids). Symptoms can include itching, burning, pain, swelling, oozing, crusting, or fever if infectious/systemic. Most rashes are benign and improve with home care (cool compresses, moisturizers, OTC hydrocortisone or antihistamines, avoiding triggers), but see a doctor promptly if the rash spreads rapidly, involves the face/eyes/genitals, is accompanied by fever, swelling, difficulty breathing, severe pain, blistering/peeling, doesn’t improve in a few days, or if you’re unsure of the cause—dermatologists often diagnose via exam, history, or tests, and treatment may involve prescription creams, oral meds, or addressing root causes.
Chronic Psoriasis and Sinus Issues Completely Cleared
Transcript:
I’m here in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, with Pedro. Pedro Acuna.
So I was 35 years old when I actually got the flu vaccine, and I was also traveling. So I got the required vaccinations when you travel to another country, yellow fever, Chagas, three different vaccinations.
Until then, I would say that I had pretty good health. Sometimes I got a cold, but nothing that really made me feel sick.
Probably between three to six months later, I started developing the first symptom of psoriasis. My arm, my shoulder, my hip, all on the right side.
Every time it started getting worse and worse. I didn’t know what it was, so I went to the doctor. After two or three months, I was diagnosed with psoriasis.
I started getting all kinds of creams. I started cortisone. Nothing helped me, and the psoriasis kept coming back continually. So I was one week fine, another week really bad, but every time it kept getting worse.
Then I started developing a sinus infection. The symptoms were really slow at first, two or three days, then a week. Then there was a moment when I was really sick. I couldn’t work anymore.
I remember being in my house for a week in bed with a lot of pain. Every time I coughed, I felt like my eyes were going to explode.
So the infection was really, really bad. That was the moment I started taking pharmaceutical drugs to deal with it. It helped me for one month, but then it came back, and every time it came back, it came back stronger.
So I needed more and more antibiotics. I was in that situation for two to three years.
My psoriasis was treated with drugs, and the sinusitis as well. Then I moved to Canada because I thought maybe healthcare would be more advanced. But it was the same solution, more drugs, just dealing with the symptoms.
The psoriasis and sinusitis kept getting worse and worse.
Until one day I needed to replace my prescription. I went to the doctor, and that day the doctor treated me really badly. I felt humiliated.
And I said, this is enough. I’ve been in pain all these years, worse and worse, no solution.
That day I left the clinic and said, I will find a solution by myself.
At that moment I was working in a research department in an IT company, so I had time to do research. I started researching many different sources, and one of them was Jim Humble talking about MMS.
For about a year, I read everything on the internet about MMS. I read so much that I knew every article that was available at that time.
Then I decided to contact Jim Humble to verify that it was real. He answered my email, and I arranged to meet him in Mexico, in Puerto Vallarta.
I traveled there, learned about MMS, and started doing my own protocol. At that time, we didn’t have the protocols that exist today.
I did my own protocol. I had a strong Herxheimer reaction, but after each reaction I started feeling stronger and better.
The symptoms started disappearing. At the same time, I was also researching diet, so I completely changed my diet.
In a period of six to eight months, I completely cleaned my body. The sinusitis was gone, psoriasis was gone, and they never came back again.
Today my skin is completely clean. No itch in my sinuses.
I also noticed more energy. I wake up every morning at five a.m. with a lot of energy. I feel like I slept until ten a.m. because of the energy I have.
I believe this is because I continuously use MMS to maintain my health.
Severe dermatitis
I had severe dermatitis on all four extremities, this along with severe itching and a lower left leg wound.
My dermatologist and my primary MD could not help me. All they know are antibiotics and that didn’t work for me.
I was introduced to MMS by my holistic healing Dr of chiropractic son.
Following Jim Humble’s protocol of 3 drops of MMS in 2oz of purified water each hour, 8 hrs a day, for 21 days I was cured in 19 days. No embarrassing red and itchy arms and legs and my wound healed completely.
I am a daily swimmer and would wear knee high compression sox and a long sleeve swim shirt so as not to freak out my fellow swimmers. Now thanks to Jim Humble I am cured and free.
Eczema - the burning painful skin was almost unbearable
We live in South Africa and are very excited about MMS. We have watched and copied many of the YouTube videos on MMS and testimonials and are also printing leaflets to share with people who do not know about this product.
I myself Carmen am 61 years old was quite healthy until five years ago when I used latex cloves for washing dishes and developed a blister rash on my hands which over time spread to my body and got progressively worse. I was diagnosed with excema and given steroids and Aqueous Cream which has made it worse. I have been to many doctors who cannot only refer more useless medications and cortizone which I hate to take but sometimes the itch was so severe that I had to take it for a short while.
I was then diagnosed by another doctor to have scabies and it looks like he could be right. After trying Scaby Rid and another all over medication the outside skin cleared a lot but the itch became progressively worse and did not go away even after two months.
My sister in law told me about MMS which I am now on. It has been over 1 week. I am on 2 drops per hour and also been taking the MMS Bath tablets. My skin was so sore from the itch and then the burning painful skin was almost unbearable. MMS has started to work and I am slowly beginning to feel much less itchy.
Andy Rijavec my brother was walking with a walker and had almost given up hope when he found your protocol and now he is walking tall, 6’3”, and no walker and volunteering at his church.
Thank you for all you are doing!
Couple Reports Recovery From Lyme-Related Illness After Three Months of MMS
My husband contracted Lyme from a tick in southeastern Idaho spring 2015. In the first three months, his vital signs were fluctuating and he had horrible, painful, papular skin rashes which would break and bleed.
We went from MD to MD. You know the story: they told us to go to a dermatologist. Lyme travels in “packs” with other “friends,” such as bartonella, mycoplasma, ehrlichiosis, etc., and invites in new friends and even parasites.
When my husband developed staph and was oozing ounces of yellow serum from his head, I forced him back to an MD, and the MD told us to change our laundry soap.
Eight months post bite, when the last infectious disease specialist told him over his encrusted, split, bleeding legs that he was fat, lazy, and probably just wanted to collect a disability check, he left her office, slumped in his truck, and said a prayer. Within an hour he had found a naturopath who agreed to see him that night. She sent him home with herbal tinctures.
The Herxheimer for both of us was bad. (I was infected via sexual contact with my husband after about two months of him becoming seriously ill—I didn’t know Lyme can be easily sexually spread and spread to fetuses in the womb.) Beginning those tinctures cemented my belief that herbs could work.
That allowed me to open my mind to other things we found combing the internet. This is how we found Jim Humble.
As we had actually visited India and become ill only two weeks before my husband was bitten by a tick, I wondered if he had something like Dengue Fever from India. We were both seriously ill in India and after returning home for six weeks, but then my husband was bitten and continued being very ill.
The MMS is what first stopped the serious rashes. We both took it internally for about three months. It worked so well that I think we stopped it only due to the taste. I have since read others take it in juice.
My husband would ask me to bathe his rash-ridden body in a glass of MMS wherein I’d used about 25–30 drops of MMS and then filled the 6 oz glass with water. I also often added 1 T. DMSO to allow the MMS to penetrate through his skin layers to kill the nasty bartonella, which loves to reside in the skin layers.
Anyone you see with permanent little “knobs” all over their face most likely has bartonella. Bartonella suppresses Lyme and then becomes the major offender. It can ultimately ruin the heart valves.
My husband could feel the MMS working immediately on his skin. It was the only thing which stopped the painful, to-the-bone itching he suffered day after day until we tried MMS on his skin.
Thank you, Jim Humble, for being a humble warrior. May God bless you.
We must tell everyone about MMS and stop the FDA rules from allowing our loved ones to suffer and die.
My husband almost died at the hands of MDs who actually refused treatment. I quoted to the doctor in front of my husband whose vital signs were fluctuating: “The Merck Medical Manual states that if a patient has recently returned from a tropical or third-world country and has fever, rashes, breathing issues, bloodshot eyes, etc., do not wait to detect the exact pathogen but begin treatment immediately with broad-spectrum antibiotic and anti-parasitic.”
This doctor refused. He was dead-set on finding the exact pathogen whilst my sweet husband was delirious and almost stopped breathing some nights.
Only herbs, MMS, and regular supplements like calcium/magnesium and Co-Q-10 helped. The MDs took lots of money and some even refused to test him for Lyme.
My husband thinks he is recovered now, nine months later. MMS works. Thank you, Jim Humble!

Sarcoidosis (Sarcoid) - cured myself in 25 days
I was diagnosed with Sarcoidosis (Sarcoid) on December 23rd, 2009 with biopsy from my nose, MRI and chest X-ray, eight months after I got sick. I was one of the lucky ones to be diagnosed in such a short time for Sarcoidosis, due to a granuloma on the left bridge of my nose, enlarged lymph nodes, itchy sculpt, skin rashes on the left side of my neck, which is called Erythema Nodosum.
I also had weight loss, chronic fatigue, chronic pain, night sweets and fever. However, most of the time Sarcoidosis does not have any symptoms; therefore, it is hard to be diagnosed with Sarcoidosis. So far my nose, eyes, thyroid and lungs are affected from Sarcoidosis.
I search the internet and found 3 different protocols to cure Sarcodiosis even though I was told that there was no cure for it by my doctors. I thought about using Marshal protocol, however there was side effects and need to take it for a year or more.
Therefore I chose MMS and cured myself in 25 days. I hope that you all be cured like I did in a very short time.
Thank you Jim Humble.

Chronic Tooth Infection, Headaches, and Jaw Pain Relieved with MMS

Lloyd’s Testimonial
Name: Lloyd
Age: 58
Weight: 140
Lifestyle notes: Mostly raw food diet for many years, raw eggs about 5 years, kefir about 2 years. All 6 amalgam fillings removed in proper order in 1996. I have been running uphill every day for about 4 years.
Health challenges before MMS:
Jaw pain from tooth infections or abscesses, headaches, neck and shoulder discomfort, and a growth or tumor on the mandible near my eyetooth (about a quarter inch in diameter).
Other protocols being used:
Oil pulling with coconut oil.
MMS start date: Mid-October 2007
Day-by-Day Experience
Day 1
I think I took 2 drops, then 3 drops with vinegar.
Day 2
4 drops, then 5 drops with vinegar.
Day 3
5 and 5 drops with bottled lemon juice. (The vinegar hurt my rectum so I switched.)
Day 4
I think 5, 5 and 5 drops with lactic acid from kefir.
Jaw pain had started about 3 or 4 days before I got the MMS and continued until about Day 6, mainly at night.
Day 5 or 6
8, 8, 8 and 6 drops with bottled lemon juice.
During the night I had to vomit a little. I suddenly got very hot in the face and a bit sweaty for a moment, then had diarrhea briefly. When I returned to bed the jaw pain was gone.
Days 7-12
I dropped down to about 6 drops twice a day and then raised it again gradually. When I got up to 10 drops twice a day, I vomited again at night, so I dropped back down to about 7 or 8 drops at a time.
I skipped one day because I wanted to plant wheat at the farm and didn’t want nausea or sleepiness.
That day I biked 9 miles to the farm, going up 3 big hills on the way. I disked 12 acres of ground, then cleaned 17 bushels of wheat by hand with a screen and loaded them into the drill. That took a couple of hours. Then I planted the 12 acres of wheat and finally rode the bike back home over the same 9 miles, climbing 3 slightly bigger hills.
I seemed to have more energy for riding the bike than I did 3 or 4 weeks ago when I did a similar feat.
Improvements Noticed
The growth or tumor on my mandible near my eyetooth has been shrinking.
It seems that the tooth infections may have spread into my neck, shoulder and maybe my upper spine. As the jaw pain left, much of the tenderness in those areas also disappeared.
The gum around my bad tooth remained slightly tender for a few days after the jaw pain left, but it is no longer tender at all as far as I can tell. There is still a small sore spot on the other side of my jaw, but it is fading.
Hopefully this will be the end of my periodic headaches and toothaches.
Longer-Term Effects
Before MMS, no matter what I tried, nothing really helped except an extremely strict diet with almost complete elimination of carbohydrates.
I even gave up beer, and I had been drinking beer for 50 years. I even gave it up when I went for a round of golf. I have played golf for 40 years, and a few beers were always part of it.
The point is, I could never maintain such a Spartan diet forever. There were always relapses.
I have spent thousands of dollars buying products that others claimed would help, but nothing really worked. I went to many doctors and was even told that I might have delusions of parasites. Eventually I quit going to useless doctors.
MMS has been a different story. I have begun to feel a real difference.
The fungus appears to be receding. I am up to about 10 drops a day, and I also use the mixture on my forearms. The crustiness there is slowly retreating.
I am back to working out seriously again and using my Gazelle (glider), a no-impact walking device. My lung capacity seems much better.
Am I completely out of the woods yet? No. But I finally see hope of getting there soon.
I have gone through some severe herx reactions including cramps, bowel looseness, and headaches. I attribute all of that to die-off.
I hope I continue to improve, because I have had many relapses in the past.
I hope this gives others some inspiration to continue the fight.
Memory and Toenail Fungus Improvement Case
My dear friend Bruce Crane (RIP) who was one of the founders of the Senior Olympics in the USA was very healthy at 87. He was playing pickle ball each day and keeping busy. The only challenges he was facing was he was starting to have severe memory loss…
He didn’t have a doc that he could remember so I brought him to mine that was a MD but that was also open minded to natura1 things. He gave me permission to help my friend take MMS.
Within not many doses at all I noticed several months of his memory loss going down hill really fast be cured!!! I noticed he had a terrible rash on his lower legs up to his knees that itched and burned a long with terrible toe nail fungus on all of this toe nails. I started helping him soak his feet in this and applied some on his rash. I noticed that his diet mainly only consisted of sugar… Ice cream specifically… I believe all of these conditions he was experiencing were candida related. I wondered if Alzhiemer’s is candida of the brain.. and that heart disease is cand1da of the heart?
I wished I could have treated him until he was healed completely but he was moved out of state and unfortunately passed away not too many months after that as he was admitted into a nurs1ng home. I miss him dearly and I am so grateful for the incredible blessing of MMS helping his memory improve even if only for that short time while I still had the blessing of his friendship in my life!
Deathly Staph Infection from Hot Tub Cured!
In 2022 I got a horribly severe staph infection from a bacteria-riddled hot tub. It smelled bad and had pink foam floating on the top.
I had just shaved my armpits with a fresh razor and all of it entered my body through the tons of micro cuts under my arms.
I began to feel ill the next day and my lymph nodes under my armpits were swollen. My armpits smelled like the bacteria in the hot tub for days.
I began running a high fever and had rashes and huge lumps begin to appear all over my body.
I didn’t really understand what had happened at this point so I went about my life. I became more and more sick and then found on the internet that I had a staph infection from a dirty hot tub.
I began to have early signs of meningitis, meaning the staph was spreading to my brain.
I remembered my MMS and decided to start dosing. I was so sick.
In 3 days I was like new with a little bit of skin stuff left over.
My mom was out of town and when she returned she made me go get checked out by a doctor and the doctor couldn’t believe I beat that gnarly of an infection without antibiotics.
