A member asked:

Can miconazole nirate 2% vaginal antifungal cream can be used to treat ringworm on the skin between breasts too?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes.: Miconazole will work on regular skin as well, as long as the rash you are treating really is a ringworm. If it doesn't work, something else is going on, and you should see your doctor or a dermatologist to find out what it is.
