I'm dealing with a ringworm infection on my stomach and it's super itchy. Is Tyza cream, which contains terbinafine, the right thing to use for this? Id rather not take any oral medication and prefer treating it with just creams or ointments. Could you let me know if this is a good approach?

Yes, Terbinafine cream, sold under the brand name Tyza, is a suitable product to treat ringworm on your stomach. You can apply a thin layer of Tyza cream on the affected area once or twice daily for about 2-4 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry before applying the cream. Additionally, it is important to continue the treatment for the recommended duration even if the symptoms improve earlier.
