The reason your infection may be reoccurring are 1. Touching/scathing the infected area than touching other parts of your body2. Using the same towel or clothing after cleaning the infected marabou can prevent it by1. Not touching any other parts after a scratch2. Sterilizing the towel and frequently used clothing 3. Continuing the medication for longer period of time 4. Maintain proper hygiene including hand wash after touching the infected areaVinegar is said to help due to its potassium content and the alkalinity, but there is no data to prove this Thanks regard Chat Doctor.
