  4. Health Queries for Clob-MG Cream 15 gm

  5. I've had ring worms in my thighs, underarms, and in front of my breast for almost three months. I tried using clob-mg cream, but it didn't work. The doctor then recommended Amfy gel, Cetirizine, and Terbinafine?tablets. But I haven't noticed any improvement in terms of skin cleanliness or itching. In the past, ringworms were surrounded by pus, but now they are dry and appear slightly red. So kindly tell me what to do.

Since your ringworm (fungal infection) has not improved even after using Terbinafine and creams, it may be a resistant or partially treated infection. this is common, especially after using steroid creams like Clob-MG Cream, which can worsen fungal infections. It?s very important to revisit a dermatologist, as you may need a longer course or a different antifungal treatment.
