I have a ringworm problem since 6-7months and that is mostly around my waist, private part, underarms, under and around my breast. I had visited the dermatologist and he prescribed some medicine however sometimes it goes away but the area becomes very itchy and I keep on scratching and gets black big spots there, after 3-4 days new ringworms comes. I don't know the root cause of the same. I need the permanent solution to this and want the solution to get rid of those awful marks. Please help me.

Hi lybrate-user. Ring worm is also called Tinea. It is nothing but a fungal infection. It aggravates during summer and due to excessive sweating. Since you have multiple lesions, you will need antifungals in the form of tablets and creams and you need to use it for long duration. Also wear loose fitting cotton clothes and avoid excessive sweating.
