Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. Ring worm infection (tinea corporis) in my patients like your condition i treat with ointments of antifungal agents like miconazole or terbinafine for local application. I also advise them to take fluconazole tab weekly once for 1 month to stop recurrence.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
