best thing for ringworm is "denerex". It is a dandruff shampoo. I had really bad ringworm and it got rid of it when nothing else could.

You need to talk to a vet.\nSteroids unless prescribed by a vet is illegal.

sounds like scabies. just go to a doctor. if it is, you need a prescription to get a medicine to apply it. that is the safest way than recieving incorrect information online. do not trust people online.

it is probably ring worm or mange, you can put some jock itch cream on it and it should clear up in a week

Yes I would check it out. Make sure you note whether or not it is itching. Triggered by certain foods. Have you changed your laundry detergent? Any fever? Necklaces (nickle allergy?) - there are many things that it could be caused by... so I would definately go to the doctor and make a mental note of any changes in diet, clothing, or jewlery. \n\nHope you feel better soon!\n-laura

Yes you can get scabies again if you come in contact with someone or something that is infested.

I think you might have mites. Try looking up info on that.

If you've tried Blue Star Ointment or other creams that are similar without the ringworm getting any better, I would contact my Dr.  Good luck....ringworm is no fun!

Not to sound mean but just suck it up and get in the shower. Believe me taking a shower in public is better than getting ringworm from the mats.

You may have elephantiasis. This is a serious diseas, and you may want to see a docter.

I know you don't want to hear this, but talk to your doctor about. Ask why it keeps recurring. If he does not provide a suitable answer, ask for a referral to a specialist who can.

Even better than that, say you have an ear or sinus infection.  Getting a doctor's note is good too.  But they can't make you get in with an ear infection, and it's not as embarrasing as the other stuff.  You could also say you have ringworm.  That might work.

Hmmm...\n\nI still think they are hives.  A minor case may only stay around for a day or two.  Hard to tell, but if they really start bothering you, go to a free clinic, to be safe.\nYour health is more important than money.\n\n Another possibility is ringworm ( a fungus), but I think it stays for a while without medicine.\n\nHere is another idea.  Go to your nearest pharmacy the next time you break out.  Then ask the pharmacist what he thinks you can put on it.  He/she might recognize the rash and be able to help you...\n\nGood luck!  Let me know ok?

sounds like an allergy to me.  take off all jewellery for a few days and see if it goes away.  I can only wear jewellery that is pure gold or i break out in a rash too. good excuse to get some nice bits of gold though.

You certainly could have threadworm - and the medication is benign enough that you can safely take it yourself without consulting your doctor. I would reccomend two courses back-to-back, and the other measures described in the previous psots (treat the household, wash your bedlinen).\nThrush is NOT a feature of threadworm. If it is recurrent, and you are losing weight, you need to consider diabetes as a possibility. Are you particularly thirsty, passing plenty of urine, and fatigued?\nSomething else to consider with weightloss and episodes of diarrhoea, is hyperthyroidism (overactive). \n\nIf the double course does not help, attend your doctor with these alternative diagnoses in mind (which, by the way, are not exhaustive).
