I have a ringworm infection on my thigh, what cream or medicine should I use to treat it?

Asked by Male, 28 · 4 hours ago

Ringworm is a very common and highly treatable fungal skin infection. For an infection on your thigh, you can use an over-the-counter antifungal cream containing generic ingredients such as terbinafine, clotrimazole, or miconazole. Apply a thin layer to the rash and about an inch beyond its borders, once or twice daily. Keep using the cream for one to two weeks after the skin clears to prevent it from returning. Keep the area clean and dry, and avoid sharing towels. If the rash does not improve after two weeks of treatment, spreads, or becomes very painful, please consult a doctor for further evaluation.
