Can I cure my tinea, ringworm, and blepharitis with medicine after trying various creams and home remedies?
Asked by Female, 31 · 2 months ago
Yes, these conditions can usually be treated effectively, but since creams and home remedies have not worked, you may need prescription-strength medicines. A doctor can suggest the right antifungal for tinea/ringworm and appropriate treatment for blepharitis. Follow their advice carefully, keep affected areas clean, and avoid self-medicating.
