Ringworm (Tinea Infection) is usually treated effectively with antifungal medicines. For mild cases, doctors commonly recommend antifungal creams or lotions (such as clotrimazole, ketoconazole, luliconazole, or terbinafine) applied regularly for 2-4 weeks and continued for some time even after the rash clears. For more severe, widespread, or long-standing infections, oral antifungal medicines may be needed under medical supervision. It is important to keep the affected area clean and dry, wear loose cotton clothing, and avoid using steroid-mixed creams, as they can worsen the infection. For best results and to prevent recurrence, consult a doctor to choose the right treatment based on the severity.
