Im getting a ringworm above my lip that i put an anti fungus cream which seem to be causing my outter trim of my lip to swell. what can i do to stop?

Stop the cream: Ringworm on the lip is pretty unusual, especially for a woman. Maybe it's something else. Sounds like cream is making things worse. Consult with your doctor or HealthTap Prime (submit a good photo).
