no bleach, it doesn’t work. i got ringworm about a year ago pretty bad on my leg, i don’t know how! and all you have to do is get athlete’s foot cream and rub it on 2 times daily. it will be gone in 4-7 days!!! trust me just do this, i have heard of bleach, nail polish remover, nail polish and lemon juice… don’t even bother!
Topically with antifungal agents such as terbinafine 1% cream (Lamisil) applied twice daily until symptoms resolve (usually 1-2 weeks). Terbinafine is not recommended for children < 2 years old or anyone with impaired hepatic function.
Systemically with oral medications, especially for scalp ring worm, or infection of the finger nails or toe nails
-Not sure if there is a fast way to heal that because healing takes time…-
Bleach also helps to, place it daily for a week.

or just see a doctor about it to be more safe, it’s a more secure way of finding how to heal it.
I had ringworm. Go to the doctor, he/she will give you a medicated cream that you have to use until it goes away. Worked for me.
A doctor may not be necessary. Over the counter antifungals are efficent enough. Lamisil (terbenafine) as earlier suggested or Clotrimazole (some manufactures will label it as athletes foot treatment… it has the same exact use). Goodluck
i’m a wrestler and have had it a couple of times, if you have time use lamisil or some other antifungal, but if you dont bleach kills it fast, but it does leave a scar. Its not as safe though so i would recommend the antifungal
