Ringworm in armpits

2017-06-14 20:27:52
I have been facing irritation and itchiness for almost about 2 years. Now it is a little better. When consulted a doctor he told that this is ringworm. Now I donnot feel the same I used to earlier but still sometimes I feel like scratching it all over. When perfume is used it causes irritation. I use perfume due to body odour. I have a huge problem
