I'm reaching out because my skin doctor diagnosed me with ringworm and suggested I use Funginil soap and cream. It's been about a month now, but the ringworm hasn't gone away. Am I on the right track with this treatment?

Ringworm can sometimes be stubborn to treat. In addition to using funginil soap and cream, I recommend adding an antifungal medication like Terbinafine (brand name Lamisil) cream to your treatment regimen. Apply the Terbinafine cream twice daily for at least 2 weeks. If the ringworm persists, consult your doctor for further evaluation and possible oral antifungal medication.

I'm really concerned about what might happen if I stop my PRP treatment for hair after just one session. Could it cause me to lose more hair?

I've been having these boils on my buttocks and they're incredibly painful. I've tried a few medicines but they arent really helping. Could you please guide me on what to do? I'm feeling really uncomfortable and worried about this.
I recommend trying an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin. Apply it to the affected area three times a day after cleaning the area with mild soap and water. Additionally, you can take an over-the-counter pain reliever like ibuprofen to help with the pain and inflammation. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to promote healing. If the boils do not improve or if you develop a fever, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.
