good morning sir/mam.... i have been suffering from ringworm for quite a long time now....there is rarely a chance for red circles in the areas but the dark spots are an impossible thing to get rid off... the thing is i have been applying ointments powders or other medicines that i used to take before but they all only used to dull the itch but after a few 2 or 3 days the itching problem starts again... i have to be honest...once the itching is reduced then i am a bit careless myself and stop the application of the ointment...but these dark spots seem to be the only problem for itching and it really gives an irritating sense sometimes....the places where these dark spots are my waist line and my groin...i regularly take baths and clean my clothes as well... my personal hygiene is good but since the time i got this infection it never went away,....so i would be really greatful if you could give me some advice and tips as to how can i get rid of this disease permanently.... thank you.
Hello, Thank you for your contact to Chat Doctor. I understand your health concern, if I am your doctor I suggest you that you must have applied a cream of steroids and not fungal Chat Doctor.  I suggest you to start with the fluconazole antifungal cream. Do not leave until all the infection clears up. I will be happy to answer all your future concern. Thank you, ChatDoctorInfectious disease specialist. Wish you the best health at Chat Doctor.
