What To Do For Painful, Itchy Ringworm On Inside Of Thigh?

Hi, I have two ringworms on the inside of my thigh right next to eachother, they are very painful and itchy. I am putting perscribed cream on them and clear finger nail polish. They seem to be getting bigger, and they are leaking a clear fluid. What should I do? Or what can I do until I get to the doctor tomorrow?

Hi,
From history it seems that apart form yeast infection there might be having secondary bacterial infection giving this problem.
Go for one antibiotic medicine course for 3-5 days to clear bacterial infection leading to stopping of leaking of discharge from the site.
Apply triple action cream.
Keep local hygiene proper.
Ok and take care.
