the reason behind recurrence of ring worm infection is presence of moisture. the presence of water helps in multiplication of ringworm. so please see that the area is kept dry from water and sweat. use clean napkins to wipe the water. wash your underclothes with dettol etc. along with the use of the creams. this will yield result.

A natural treatment for jock itch is:
1. Make sure that you have a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar and mix it in with a cup of warm water.
2. Place the solution that you have created on the affected area and wash it thoroughly. Do not wipe the area and let it dry on its own.
3. Do this about 2 – 3 times a day every day. It will help get rid of the jock itch in no time.
