Hi, since january till now I am facing ringworm problem. Medical history - for the 1.5 month I was on homeopathy. In february month I was first on terminating. During this medication the itching was controlled but formation of rings was still there. In march doctor prescribed me itraconazole. I am with the immediate result of this medicine. No reddishness but yes scars are there. I have a ringworm issue on my wrist, shoulder, below neck, lower abdomen, inner thighs, under breast. Due to which my chest area also affected a lot. Although I have seen improvement in all the areas within 14 days, but still I am on medication as doctor told me that it will take till june july to recover. My question is I am experiencing itching on scars, elevation of small bumps I see, then after some time skin seems fine. Right now, my under breast area is full of itching and same problem is also there. Reddish bumps develop. What to do in this case.

Hello Vandana I understand your concern.Ringworm can be a bothersome issue.It takes atleast 2-3 months to control it. I can definitely help you with the scars but for that I will need to see clinical photos of the scars.You can start a private consultation for that . Meanwhile wear loose cotton clothes and keep the area as dry as possible since ringworm can increase in summer. Take care
