I'm not sure about this, we have members here that are very knowledgeable in treatment because some of them have worked with the best vets, but if someone has just googled an answer, I think I'd trust my vet's treatment first. You might want to do a thread on ringworm, and perhaps you'll get some good tips. It can be very hard to eliminate, but keep up with treatment.

I took out medical insurance for him - it does not cover the stricture - but at least other stuff!
Lol, I've never heard of stricture either, but at least I could have googled that! Glad you got that taken care of. Have you informed his breeder of all these problems? If the insurance company didn't cover it, my guess would be it's genetic, and the breeder should be informed.
