What Is the Best Way to Use Apple Cider Vinegar for Granuloma Annulare?

Posted by Jessica (Martinez, Ca) on 08/03/2015

I've had GA on my elbow since I was an infant. Im now 18 and have tried most remedies in the book: Steroids, topical ointments, shots, freezings, etc. After trying all of these with no results I got discouraged and basically gave up any hope of it getting better. The physical look of it has resulted in me being teased all throughout my school days and made me very self conscious. I've never heard of the ACV until reading this forum today! I'm going to go to the store today to try it out, it kind of gives me some hope since so many people have had success with it. Should I take it both by mouth and apply it topically? Or just one or the other?

Dear Jessica, I would used try Apple Cider Vinegar topically and internally for your Granuloma Annulare. We use raw and organic Apple Cider Vinegar for medical uses. We dilute 1/2 with water when we are using it on the skin. (Or dilute even more for sensitive skin.) Internally, you could start with 1 teaspoon once or twice a day. Some people work up to 1 Tablespoon a few times a day; you would need to see how it suits you.

Let us know how it goes!
