Ringworm - oral treatments

3 replies

I must be run down or something because I had one patch of ringworm which I was treating with daktarin but suddenly it's spread absolutely everywhere - arms, stomach, neck and I think scalp.
Can I get an oral treatment form the pharmacy or do I need a GP?

Probably a GP job. Might be a type of eczema rather than ringworm

Looks v classic ringworm tbh, but I guess I'd better call them

So stressed about this. Took an oral tablet on Friday with instructions from the GP to do so once a week for 2-3 weeks but it's spreading so fast. I'm so uncomfortable!
