Hello,
Thank you for the query on HCM,
I have reviewed your condition, as you are having confirmed infection of ringworm infection and taking Tab Terbicip (Terbinafine) and Applying oint over the infection site it will bring down the infection.
My advise will be to continue the Tab Terbicip for minimum of 4 weeks once a day.
Apply the ointment for the same duration.Nothing to panic you will be alright.Feel free to put queries.
Thank you.
