Ringworm issues
Hi, I have ring worm issues, after doctor consultation I have taken medications but was not able to continue due to covid 19 and I was admitted in hospital ( 1 month ago) after recovery my ringworm problem seems to be aggravated. Can I still take the same medications prescribed previously by my dermatologist?
Fungus or yeast infection....common around skin folds like thighs and genitals.. avoid sweating, sharing clothes,towels and soap.. specific medicine required depends on the severity.. for detailed prescription do direct online consultation by sending photos.

You should consult before starting medicine again and avoid stopping the treatment unless advised by your doctor as fungal infections can become resistant to medication
