Is It Ok To Peel Off Old Skin While New Skin Grows On?

For ringworm.
Every few days or so I guess some new skin starts coming and it starts to peel, this peeling seems to be the cause of the itching that then occurs. I often end up peeling it off - questions is should I avoid peeling this skin off or is it fine?
