A member asked:
I recently got ringworm and now it's its starting to spread everywhere any tips to stop the spreading? i am using lotrimin (clotrimazole) athletes antifungal cream

May not be ringworm: The basic adage that if the treatment isn't working, the diagnosis may be wrong may apply in this case. The agent in lotrimin (clotrimazole) should help if it is really ringworm, but if not better after a week you might want to have it looked at.A contact dermatitis can have some similar findings.
