A Comprehensive Guide to Treating Ringworm with Antifungal Creams
Providing the answers to your most pressing questions in our comprehensive guide to treating ringworm with antifungal creams and why using antifungal cream is a quick and effective means to get rid of ringworm.
Understanding Ringworm SymptomsRingworm, also called ‘tinea’ is a common skin rash or infection that can occur anywhere in the body. Typically presented as a red, circular rash, sometimes with a raised, scaly border. The centre of the rash may appear clear or slightly red or have purple tones. It may start as just one ring and can develop into more as it spreads to different parts of the body including the feet which is called Athletes foot.
The rings can be different sizes and can grow if left untreated. This can be unsightly if you are out and about, so you’ll want to start treatment with an antifungal cream immediately.
Ringworm can occur on the skin, scalp, nails, and in the groin area. You may see a red, scaly patch on the scalp or beard area, or thick, discoloured, or chalky nails.
It is important to note that the rash may not always be in the shape of a ring, and the rash may not be itchy. Ringworm can present slightly differently for different people.
