Hi Thank you for asking HCM. I have gone through your query. If you send a picture of it then it will be more helpful in identifying. For ring worm (tinea corporis) fungal infection i would recommend using anti fungal ointments like miconazole. Oral fluconazole weekly once for 1 month will be helpful to stop recurrence. Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear. Thanks.
