Hi.
I've gone through your query. I can understand your anxiety.
Your symptoms might be due to the ringworm or Tinea infection. I advice you to take,
- Tab. Itraconazole 100mg OD for 4-6weeks
- candid powder in the day time or
- Terbinafine cream at night for 2weeks
- maintain good self hygiene
- use separate towels & soaps.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Get well soon.
Regards,
Dr. Yogapriya V, General and family physician.
