A member asked:
I was diagnosed with ringworm and i did the treatment for four weeks but the spots are still there on my inner thighs and on the side of my body but as im doing the cream its getting lighter should i go and get it looked at for a stronger medicine?

You can kill all the fungus associated with ringworm and it will still take weeks before the skin appears normal. Run the tips of your fingers over the site. If the skin feels rough it is not responding and may not be ringworm. If the skin surface feels similar to the surrounding skin, it is responding. If concerned the doc can still check the sites.
