Ringworm advice

[BottomlessPit]

Think my son has ringworm on his leg. Seeking advice from the mumsnet collective about best way to get rid of it. Is it clean towels and cleaning bedding every day?? As well as the topical cream from a pharmacy. Anything else? Thanks for any advice.

No you don't have to change bedding every day. I didn't when I had a patch of it on my arm

I had a patch of ringworm and just put athlete's foot cream on it but as it's a child I would probably get some cream from the pharmacy, you don't need to change bedding and stuff, I didn't, that's probably scabies you are thinking of. You do have to continue with the cream until it is well gone or else it will come back

Thank you! That’s made me feel a lot better!
