A member asked:

Been using lotrimin (clotrimazole) for ringworm redness went away but i think it's coming back should i use it more than 2ce a day?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Probably unnecessary: Would continue with current course of treatment and if this does not clear things up you may need a change in therapy. Good luck.
