Growing ringworm

2016-02-23 04:39:20
My friend has got a small ring work on her back some months ago but she didn't pay attention to it. Now it has increased to an extent that it has covered her whole back and still growing further. It itches a lot and due to excessive itching it bleeds sometime. She is in pain . What can be done about it?

Hi, Do not neglect skin conditions in this manner. I would recommend her to see a dermatologist at the earliest so that she may get a proper diagnosis and treatment. Take care, Dr Siddharth Prakash
