A member asked:
I'm on oral terbinafine for 10 days for recurring ringworm. i have large areas on both legs. im on day 4 of treatment. can i shave my legs? or should i wait until completely gone before shaving?

You may shave keeping in mind that the procedure may produce raw areas from the shaving blade affecting the areas of rash that have not healed yet. If you do shave and have abraded or raw areas, apply triple antibiotic cream to the raw areas. Wish you good health!
