A ringworm infection lasting a year may indicate that your current treatment is not fully effective. You may need a longer course of oral antifungal therapy under your doctor?s supervision to completely clear it. Keep the affected areas clean and dry, avoid scratching, and follow up with your doctor if it persists.

  1. Understanding Ringworm and Its Treatment

    • Ringworm is a persistent fungal infection. Consistent use of antifungal medications like Oxiconazole cream and Griseofulvin tablets is crucial.

  2. Proper Use of Medications

    • Apply Zoderm E Cream (Oxiconazole 1%) as directed on affected areas.
    • Take Grisovin FP (Griseofulvin 250mg) as prescribed, ensuring full adherence to the treatment duration.

  3. Additional Measures to Support Treatment

    • Maintain good hygiene: keep skin dry, avoid sharing personal items.
    • Wear loose, breathable clothing to minimize moisture.

  4. When to Consult a Doctor

    • Seek medical advice if no improvement is seen after several weeks or if symptoms worsen.
    • A doctor may recommend alternative or stronger antifungal treatments.

  5. Follow-up and Prevention

    • Complete the full course of treatment even if symptoms improve.
    • Prevent recurrence by maintaining skin care and environmental cleanliness.
