If your Ringworm has not improved after two months of using multiple creams and tablets, it is likely that the infection is persistent or not being treated correctly, which is common when using mixed creams like Clop-GM or Fourderm. The best next step is to stop using such combination creams and use a proper antifungal treatment as prescribed by a doctor, usually a single antifungal cream (like luliconazole or terbinafine) applied regularly for a few weeks, and sometimes a longer course of oral antifungal medicine if needed. Keep the area clean and dry, avoid tight clothing, do not share towels, and continue treatment for at least 2-4 weeks even after the rash improves to prevent recurrence. Since your case is not improving, it is important to consult a dermatologist for a proper diagnosis and the right treatment plan.
