If you’re not using castor oil, you’re missing out. Here are 7 things you need to know (Page 3 ) | April 5, 2025

6. Treat fungus
Because castor oil has antimicrobial properties, some think it may help treat fungus. If you want to try to treat jock itch, ringworm or athlete’s foot, Mercola recommends warming the castor oil and applying it to the affected area before bed. Apply every night for about a week or until the fungus is gone.

7. Reduce pain in joints
Castor oil has anti-inflammatory properties which some believe may help with joint pain. Dr. Axe recommends rubbing the castor oil straight onto the bothersome joints and then using a hot pack afterwards. He recommends doing it twice a week.

Castor oil has some great medicinal properties. Be aware that some people may be allergic to the oil, so test it on a small area before going crazy with it. Who knew that one simple vegetable oil could be so helpful?
