You can dilute clorox with water and put it on the ringworm several time a day. If you are not allergic to iodine that works also, but you have to do it more than once or twice a day.

It could be that the medicine killed the ringworm, but your skin is irritated from the treatment, it’s powerful stuff. My advice is stop putting anything on it for a few days and see if it improves. If it doesn’t, go see your doctor again, but my guess is that it will.

I put that perscribed cream on my daughter too, it got worse, of course. So the neighbor told me to use Iodine and lotrimin cream and I was so happy it cleared up in 6 days.

Hi Sweeti,
Of course you probably allready know that RW is not a case of worms but wrather a bactirial infection. Your imune sys. can usually take care of such things but as with us all, we need help sometimes.
I understand you have a topical ointment now you are useing. Return to your physican and have he or she observe it. You may need to go on an oral antibiotic. Remember, if your on the pill or some other kind of birth control, antibiotics can sometimes render them useless.
Good Luck and STOP ICHING IT!!
Mike

Myself and my brothers all had ringworm many years ago when we were young (50 years ago). My mom tried everything and two of us were cured. My older brother could not get rid of his. One day, an old country woman told mom that the only cure (in those days) was ‘bluebutter’ from the Chemist. Mom asked for and got some, used it and it was cured within days. It was only after wards she found out it was an old cure for venereal disease.
