Hi lybrate-user,
Thanks for writing in.
Ringworm is fungal infection of skin caused due to sweating ,hot humid climate ,wearing of wet clothing, lack of hygiene and such factors. So avoid these things. A 3 month course of good quality Antifungal medication along with good hygiene will clear the fungal infection.
Hope this helps.

Stop using fourdeem and quadriderm. They are combimation creams containing steroid. Use antigungal creams for ringworm infection. They can be prescribed by a dermatologist after confirmation of ringworm infection.

Terbinafine is the treatment of choice in tinea infection. it may two weeks to show improvement and a prolonged therapy may be required to prevent relapse.do not use clob-mg cream.

Measures to prevent recurrence of Jock itch include weight reduction (if obese), wearing less occlusive clothing, drying thoroughly after bathing, using topical antifungal powders, laundering contaminated clothing, and treating concomitant onychomycosis or tinea pedis if present.

Hi lybrate-user,
thanks for writing in on Lybrate.
Itchy Red circle on personal parts of body can be fungal infection of the skin called tinea cruris and corporis.
Keep the area clean and dry. Avoid wearing wet innerwear. Use Antifungal powder daily. A course of Antifungal for 3 months should be taken to completely clear tinea.

I am suffering from skin diseases since about 4 years. Sometimes in the form of Ringworm, most of the times rashes and itchiness that brings cuts down there in pubic areas. Also I suffer from mouth ulcers that appear deep inside my mouth on the tonsils or surrounding area. Another terrible thing I face is that some of my fingers get very dry on finger-folds and get cracked. Blood comes out. Not only embarrassing but these things are very very painful. I have tried many doctors many medicines but all were temporary solutions. None of those qualified specialist doctors (duffers rather) could finish my problems and just kept on charging huge amounts as fees. I am fed up. Fully fed up. I wanna end this suffering or end myself. Its very shameful. I avoid handshakes. I stay isolated with people most of the time so that my problems do not enter into other's life. Please help me out somebody if you can. I am a poor person who cannot afford to waste money in temporary solutions with stupid selfish doctors who do not even talk properly in mannered way. They don't even clarify what and why am I suffering all this. They just open mouth for the fees. 500. 700. 1200 rupees plus the medicines expenses. That all for a few days. Problems bounce back again. I hate taking medicines now. I want a permanent solution and end these skin problems. Please please please help me.

Hello Mr. lybrate-user, it might be Eczema and there is no permanent cure for it. Everyone has a unique skin. There’s more than one kind of dermatitis – and there’s more than one way of treating it. Whether your skin feels itchy, irritated or dry, it’s important to understand your dermatitis – no matter the type as it is a chronic condition and has many causes from reactions to previously harmless substances through to stress or genetics.

Dear sir I've a itches and rashes before 3 months in my anal I thought it was some yeast infection and I bathed 2 times a day. After 2 weeks I got itches and red rashes in penis shaft I thought it was a ringworm and I applied candid b. The itches gone for 3 days and I stopped to apply. After I got tiny sores on base of my penis head and no bumps. I search online and I guess its hsv2 now I'm using acv and turmeric with combination of garlic the sores are going but bumps will appear in top base head of my penis. Now I'm using garlic plus olive oil till bumps is there but sores are going disappeared mildly. Can you tell me what's the exact disease its herpes or wat? If herpes means how should to clear I tried accivlovir cream and tab 200 mg for 10 days before 1 month but no use. But garlic can reduce but I got inflammation and burning when I use regularly so I'm confused about this pls suggest me I want to get rid of this. Tell me what medication should I have? And what exact STD test name should I do for this? Really I'm worried about now pls tell me some suggestion or tell me the medication names I should try whatever you said. In my area don't have STD labs facility that's y I'm posted here? PS: I've oral and anal sex before 3 months afterwards only I got this problems. This is my 1st outbreak. That's why I thought it was an STD.
