I've been dealing with a ringworm infection for a few days now, and I've been using Quadriderm RF cream, but it doesn't seem to be helping. The infection is spreading, mainly below the waistline, and I'm really worried. Do you have any advice or alternative treatments? What else can I try to get rid of this?

I've been dealing with a dandruff issue and was told by my dermatologist to use Candid B lotion. I'm a bit unsure about how much of it I should apply. Also, once I put it on, do I need to leave it in, or can it be washed off after some time? Would really appreciate some guidance on this.
