I've been dealing with recurring ringworm issues and I'm really getting frustrated. I've gone through three cycles of using candiforce 100mg and antifungal cream according to the 15-day treatment but it just keeps coming back a few days after I finish. Every time it seems to be completely gone, it just reappears out of the blue. What should I do for a permanent solution? I'm really tired of this repeating cycle.
