    Is it ring worm? scurvy is caused by vitamin C deficiency.

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.

    Ring worm.
    Imravol is what you are looking for.
    €18 for the bottle and it makes up a litre. Doesn't affect their eyes so get it right in there.
    If its not bad then one treatment usually works. But if it's bad you might need a second run.
