ABSTRACT
Public health problem is one of the major concerns, especially for health careprovider. One of the health problems that arise are infectious diseases such astetanus. Miliaria is one of the clinical manifestations caused by the tetanus bacteria.Miliaria occur as a result of excessive sweat production, causing blockage of sweatglands in the skin. The case study was carried out aiming to identify the effectivenessof virgin coconut oil (VCO) in overcoming miliaria tetanus patients. The method usedwas observation before and after administration. The result after 6 days of treatmentwith VCO showed decrease in the number of miliaria. VCO was proven effective forlowering miliary. The used of VCO in miliaria caused by other diseases and analyzedthe result is important to increase health care for patients. ;Public health problem is one of the major concerns, especially for health careprovider.
