Answers:
As long as it isn't on the scalp, you can try a topical antifungal cream!. Lotrimin is available over-the-counter!. You will typically treat the infection for four weeks!. If you do not notice any improvement, or the area looks worse or becomes infected, you should see your doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

ANY jock itch or athletes foot creme will work!. You can find them at any drug store!. Also wash sheets , towels and cothing that touches that area well!.!.!.!. the ringworm comes in contact with that area and can be spread very easily making it harder to get rid of!. Usually 2 weeks of the creme is sufficent , but may want to extrend that another week just to be certian!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Sure!. Try using an "athlete's foot" medicine from the drug store!. Lamisil works best because it actually kills the fungus that causes ringworm!. In fact if you go to the dermatologist they may tell you to just buy an over the counter medicine!. Other meds you can use include Lotrimin and Micatin!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Buy an antifungal ointment at the drugstore and apply it at least twice a day!. It will take a few weeks of diligent application and patience!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
