Hi Dear,

welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern.

Thanks for your query . The ringworm infection is cased by fungus .

I would suggest you to consult dermatologist for proper examination . Doctor may prescribe anti fungal medicine like clotrimazole or terbinafin for around week . If these treatment doesn't work then doctor may prescribe oral anti fungal griseofulvin which is very effective .

Applying tree tea oil and raw papaya will be very healpful.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
