I'm dealing with a ringworm infection and I've been using okacet l and applying betnovate gm and scabex s. Are these the right medications for treating it? Is there anything else I should be doing or anything I should avoid while using these treatments? I'm just worried if I'm handling this correctly.

So, about two months ago, I had a scab on my nose, and after it peeled off, the skin underneath turned pink. It's been two months now, and the pink skin hasn't changed back to its natural color. Should I be worried about this? Is there anything I can do, or is it just a matter of time before the skin tone evens out?

Usually it takes time to regain normal skin, especially over sensitive areas like nose ,give time and moisturize it often, if the size is increasing visit Dermatologist for evaluation.
