All About Ringworm In Humans
10. Treatment
Although ringworm is a very mild disease, it should still be treated. Thankfully, this is fairly straightforward and the medication can be purchased from most drug stores without a prescription. If over the counter medication is not working for you, then you should speak with your doctor about being prescribed stronger medication.
Medication from a drug store will usually be a topical anti-fungal cream. Stronger medication is likely to be oral. In addition to medication, the patient should try and keep the infected area covered. They should also try and keep the area dry and clean because the fungus prefers moist areas.
