The treatment for ringworm is an antibiotic. They will give you a cream that you rub on it and it will die off within a certain amount of time. It will help cure it faster.
If you apply Neosporin on your weal/welt caused by ringworm it will keep it dry which is a good thing. Neosporin doesn't help getting completely rid of ringworm but it does help. To get rid of ringworm you need an anti-fungus cream for ringworm is a fungus growing on your skin.
No ringworm is a fungel infection and triamcinolone acetonide is a steroid, steroids help fungal infections grow. You need and anti fungel cream called Clotrimazole.
I' googled it and everyone is saying no. I get ringworm often and I use different cream each time. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. Recently I got ringworm again and developed over time from size of a quarter to size of half of my body. Most of the time I just left it alone and it'll go away by itself. This time I use clobetasol propionate twice I think and it worked for me. So maybe try it once and see if it works.
I have athlets foot bad and was wondering if Mometasone furoate ointment can be used for athletes foot?
No, for two reasons. First, cats groom themselves by licking their fur - any Lotrimin cream you put on a cat's skin is going to be eaten. Second, cats are not little humans - they react very differently to drugs than humans do. Just because Lotrimin is safe for humans does not mean it isn't toxic to cats. Your veterinarian can help you get your cat's ringworm under control; I suggest a visit to have your cat evaluated and appropriate medication prescribed.
My doctor prescribed it for me just last week. She said I did not have any infections and the cream might help with the itching. I started using it last wednesday and I havent itch at all. I am supposed to use it twice a day for 14 days. I am affraid that after two weeks and I stopped using it, Iwill start itching again. Hopefully it wont.
Yes you can go tanning with ringworm. The bright UV lights damage the ringworm fungus and drys out your skin. This process of quickly drying the skin will actually help get rid of the ringworm. I would wait to apply any topical creams until after you are done tanning because they might irritate your skin when combined with tanning lights. P.S. Don't tell the tanning business that you have ringworm because they might not let you into the beds. (You can trust this answer, I have had ringworm multiple times, it comes with being a wrestler)
Iodine can be an effective antiseptic for treating ringworm when diluted and used topically on the affected area. It may help in preventing the spread of infection and promoting healing. However, it is always best to consult a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and treatment of ringworm.
Well I can tell you if you have a big or small circle around your arm with white inside that's ringworm. The best think that I would tell you to do is go to medco.com or askdoctor.com they will help you.
Ringworm is actually a misnomer, it is caused by a fungus, not a worm. Antifungals usually help, or if a more natural approach appeals to you, tea tree essential oil (but make sure to dilute it before putting it on your skin.)

There is limited scientific evidence to support the use of aloe vera for treating ringworm. While aloe vera has some antifungal properties, it may not be effective in treating a ringworm infection on its own. It is best to consult with a healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and treatment of ringworm.
