Ringworm Treatment help!!!!

Please can anyone help??
So last Saturday I woke up with a mark on my arm and thought nothing of it as it wasn’t itchy. It was still there on Sunday and I noticed I had some on each of my shins too. I kept an eye on it as it wasn’t itching at all and went to the pharmacy on Wednesday and they had a look and said it looked like ringworm!!! I have no idea where it’s come from but just want it to go. I have been putting canestan cream on it 3x a day since Wednesday and also took an oral tablet on Thursday night. The one on my arm seems to be slowly disappearing but I can’t seem to get control of my legs. I wear a new set of clothes and pajamas everyday and everything is washed. How long does it take to go? Do I take another tablet? Has anyone got any suggestions? It’s driving me mad and getting me down a little bit. Thanks 🙏🏻

Derbac lotion is the best thing for it.

I've just looked and you can get it from Superdrug!
