Advice on ringworm treatment Posted: 02-01-08 14:04pm
Hey,
I’ve been diagnosed with ringworm by my
doctor, I’ve had it for over 4 months
now, I’ve tried two different anti
fungal creams and it hasn’t cleared up.
It’s just got worse whilst using the
cream and it is quite extensive around my
groin. My doctor has since prescribed me
with Terbinafine tablets (1-a-day 250mg).
I’ve been taken them about a week and I
haven’t noticed any change, except
it’s slightly flakier than normal. Is
this a sign of getting better? Or is it
just a coincidence?
Any advice would be appreciated, this is
ruining me, I hate going out and I worry
ever time I touch my face I’ll spread it
to there.
My main questions are, will this
definitely clear it up? How long will it
take? And what does ringworm look like
when its healing?
