Suggest Remedy For Red Patches On Thigh

Hi good am! Recently I noticed a small red patch on my left thigh and thought it was just a regular rash, after searching thru internet, I found this ringworm and it is similar on the rash I have. My question is, does biotin affect the growth of the fungus? Is it still safe to take 1000mcg biotin? Thank you and have a good day!
