I have a coffee-colored milk mole on my cheek and I'm really bothered by it. Is there any way to remove it? Would I need surgery or are there other options that don't involve going under the knife?

I'm having a bit of a tough time with ringworms right now. I used Allegra 120 mg and Terbinaforce tablets before, and it seemed to help, but I'm noticing they're coming back on my crotch area, hips, back, waist, and thighs. It starts as a small dot and then grows larger. Any idea why this might be happening again, and what else I can do to stop it from spreading?
