Suffering from ringworms from last 3 years (on and off), (sometimes on neck, below and above armpits and on thighs), and continuously from last 1 year. Have tried a course of terbinafine tablets and ketoconazole ointment, in the beginning, it went away but came back again. Tried itraconazole cap and sertaconazole ointment also, went away but came back again. During both of these treatments my sgpt/sgot levels reached 200/90. Usually also I have these levels elevated which further goes up after antifungal. Since last 1 year, have tried homeopathy treatment (reckeweg r82 and r60) and unani also (sharbat unnab, itrifal shahtara, dabidulward, musaffikhas and qurs asfar). These also failed, went back to dermatologist who didn't give any oral treatment but luliconazole and amorolfine ointments. After applying for 10 days went away from neck, but again started appearing above and below armpits. Please help. How can I permanently get rid of them?
