I've been struggling with a stubborn ringworm infection on my inner thigh, and it's just not going away. I've already tried some over-the-counter creams, but they aren't doing the trick. I'm getting pretty frustrated and worried. What else can I do to treat this persistent issue? Is there something stronger I should be using? Any advice would be really helpful.

I've noticed these small white patches on my thighs, and they've been there for about a month now. They seem to be spreading, and I'm getting really worried. There's no family history of vitiligo, which makes it even more confusing. I've tried using Momate cream and Tacroz 0.1 for two weeks, but there's no sign of improvement. Now, my dermatologist has prescribed Melgain lotion in the morning, Tacroz 0.1 at night, and T.Ascozinc for a month. Do you think this will actually help, or is there anything else I should be considering?

Continue all the medications..
