A member asked:
When should my ringworm disappear?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Slowly as treated: Topical antifungals may work relatively slowly but are generally quite effective in eradicating what are called "dermatophytes", or fungi which predominantly produce skin infection. This should clear in several weeks.
