“Ringworm concern?”
I have had ringworms for almost 2 months now. I took pills for 3 weeks on & off I applied the cream. It got a bit better but came back again. I got it from street cats that I play with. All of my body itches at night. The ringworms are only on my thighs now.

Grisiofvin (spelling off). Is the appropriate treatment for ringworm. You might want to get retested to make sure that it is ringworm and not something else. Because if conventional treatment has not worked as of yet it might not be ringworm, or it is something that is resistant to current treatment. Often on would not work as well as continuous treatment throughout. It does take a long time in order for ringworm to be treated but it is a very treatable illness. Please speak to your provider about this nor to see what he and/or she has to say about what is to do right and the appropriate medication and order to clear it for good. Also, you might want to check that you’re not re-utilizing the same thing as a potential he can be carrying the ringworm and re-infecting yourself on a regular basis.
