What are the treatments available for ringworm infection?

Question

Hello doctor,

I have ringworms on my face, nose, eyebrows, scalp, jock itch, white spots around the anus that hurt and itch. I get blood when I go to the bathroom, nails rip off easily, always feeling sleepy, swollen lymph nodes and itching all over the body. Please help.

Thanks.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I can understand your concern.

For how long do you have this problem? This is not ringworm or fungal infection. There are multiple atrophic plaques over the face and arms from your picture. Have you applied anything over them? It looks like it is lupus erythematosus but confirming the diagnosis would be made on skin biopsy. You also have folliculitis over beard area with secondary infection over it. I will suggest you consult your nearby health facility.

I hope this information will help you.

Thanks.
