Hi,i am a 22 year old female; I got a ringworm infection on the inner side of my right thigh 4 months back.i have been self treating it with Flucort - C (fluocinolone acetonide & ciclopirox olamine) since then.I had shown symtoms of disappearing in the first month but then it came back and spread circularly further. There are multiple rings of a total diameter of an inch and a half on my thigh.is there any other effective medication which I can use?
