HI,
I understand your concern.
Ring worm infection not responding to ointment ..needs addition of antifungal agents like Grisovin/ flucanozol orally.
Alternatively it can be contact dermatitis / allergic/ exema. which needs anti allergic/ steroidal medicines.
Please check with your dermatologist for change of medication/ addition of oral anti fungals.
Thanks.
