Should I cover a small ringworm patch on my knee with a plaster?!
Question: Should I cover a small ringworm patch on my knee with a plaster!?
It is right on the area where my trousers rub against my knee and it's helluva uncomfortable!. But I read you should try not to cover it!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
The reason you are not supposed to keep the ringworm covered is because it is a fungus - it will heal faster if you use an anitfungal cream!. But, on a place like your knee, if you don't cover it, you may spread the ringworm to other parts of your legs through the movement of your slacks/pants!. You should look for an antifungal cream that contains an - azole product as its active ingredient!. i!.e!. Lotrimin AF!. Continue to use the cream (on clean, dry skin)as directed until the fungus is gone!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
no dont cover it with a plaster as ringworm is a fungus and it wont be able to heal!.just use your cream and should be ok to wear trousers ,but once your home allow the air to it as much as possibleWww@Answer-Health@Com
paint it with clear nail varnish, give a few layers drying each one in between after a few days peel it off and it should cure it!. Weird I know but it works !
