Realised that my 2year olds rash I thought was eczema is more than likely ringworm. Shall I make an appointment for doc, just ask for treatment stuff at chemist or anyone have tips please?

You can buy cream over the counter at the chemist.
Just remember to make sure everyone washes their hands after touching animals etc

timodene cream or daktarin. Both very effective and started to work very quickly.

Point to note though; I was prescribed the timodene (sp) but left it at home when I was unexpectedly away for a few weeks with the kids. IO was told by the pharmacist that I needed it on presciption, but I went back on a Saturday (out of hours) and they were able to give me it.

Oh, and none of the rest of the family has caught it.
