I've been using Skin Shine cream and soap for about two months, but I'm planning to stop now. I'm worried about what might happen to my skin when I do. Could there be any side effects or changes that I should be prepared for?

I'm really frustrated because I've got a ton of ringworms all over my body. I've already tried so many creams like sapat lotion, KT5, dermring guard, panderm, triben, and itch guard, but nothing has helped. It's driving me insane because I can't stop itching the whole day. I'm desperately looking for an immediate home treatment for this. What can I do to finally get rid of them?

For immediate relief, you can try using Terbinafine cream (brand name Lamisil) twice a day on the affected areas. Additionally, taking oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole (brand name Diflucan) can help clear up the infection from within. Make sure to keep the affected areas clean and dry, and avoid sharing personal items to prevent spreading the infection.
