If you are sure it is ring worm and it has been there for more than a year, then you should consult a doctor ASAP as you will need a proper course of anti fungal tablets along with anti fungal cream. And no, the mark on the skin will not remain forever, it will fade gradually but only after the ringworm is cured.
