5. Use Antibacterial or Antiviral Remedies
The best way to get rid of a bacterial infection or a viral infection that has taken hold in these areas is by using some sort of antibacterial or antiviral natural remedy. There are antibacterial and antiviral products that you can purchase, but most people just use regular antibacterial soap without any frills. This will work really well if the infection is a bacterial one, but it will not kill the infection if it happens to be viral.
The good news is, there are a lot of natural remedies out there do you can use in order to kill viruses as well as bacteria. Many of the natural remedies that you are already familiar with have both antibacterial and antiviral properties. If you are able to find some that work for you, then you can apply them to the affected areas and kill the bacteria or viruses that are causing you problems in the first place. Of course, you still want to do the cleaning and other strategies as well.
