Question

I'm worried about my mom's ringworm fungal infection and she's been using Dermotraid cream for it. I'm wondering, is that really the best option for treating this condition, or should she be looking at other creams?

That could be fungal infection which needs both oral and topical antifungal medications and personal hygiene is more important for such condition.
