There are contraindications. Consult your doctor.

Lemon for fighting ringworm: lemon juice can be used for treatment by gently applying it to the affected areas of skin.

Common soapwort (root): Pour 1 teaspoon of crushed root with 1 cup of cold boiled water and steep for 8 hours. Strain and take 1-2 tablespoons of the infusion 6-8 times a day.

Garlic (heads):

Here are a few folk recipes with garlic:

Rub the affected area with garlic, then rub in finely crushed birch charcoal mixed with burdock root. This remedy is effective for ringworm.
Crush garlic, wrap it in gauze, and apply it to the affected areas of skin for 10 minutes for 3-4 days.

Greater celandine (herb): fill a 0.5-liter jar halfway with fresh chopped leaves (or 0.25 of the jar with dried leaves), pour boiling water, cool, and strain. Take 100 ml three times a day 10-15 minutes before meals. For children, a half dose is recommended. Take a break for 2 days after every 7 days of intake. This strong decoction can also be used for compresses.

Colophony plaster: mix equal parts of colophony (powdered), fresh hog lard (rendered in a double boiler), and pure beeswax.

Preparation is done in a double boiler. First, melt the wax, then add colophony, stirring continuously. Gradually add the rendered fat. When the entire mass has melted, remove from heat and mix thoroughly until it thickens. This plaster has a powerful healing effect and helps with abscesses, boils, carbuncles, ringworm, and cuts. Change the plaster dressing 1-2 times a day. Do not squeeze the purulent core from boils; it will come out on its own, after which rinse the wound with a potassium permanganate solution.

A mixture of frankincense, aloe, garlic, and egg white for treating flat ringworm: combine 50 g of church frankincense, 50 g of aloe, 50 g of garlic, and the white of 1 egg. Mix all ingredients thoroughly and store in the refrigerator. Apply the mixture to the affected areas using a gauze tampon. This remedy is also helpful for psoriasis and purulent wounds, but apply the moistened tampons to the wounds.

Birch bud salve: grind 1 cup of birch buds and mix with 0.5 kg of lard. Cook in the oven in a clay pot for 3 hours a day for 7 days. Afterward, strain and store the salve in jars. This salve can be used for eczema and other skin diseases, as well as for tuberculosis: take a teaspoon of the salve in 50 ml of warm milk 3 times a day before meals. It is also effective for lupus erythematosus and other dermatological issues.

Celery: long-term use of celery can help in the treatment of certain forms of psoriasis, urticaria, and ringworm. Apply a mashed paste of its leaves and roots to the affected areas and drink 2 tablespoons of fresh juice 3 times a day.

In cases of skin tuberculosis, use a paste mixed with an equal amount of butter or fat.

Paper resin from ringworm: roll coarse wrapping paper into a tight tube and light one end, holding the structure with forks. When the paper burns, carefully collect the brown resin left at the bottom of the plate and apply it to the ringworm until it hardens. If the resin hardens, diluting it with a drop of vodka will help. Keep it on the skin for 30-60 minutes, then gently wipe it off with cotton. The next day, the skin will begin to peel, and the ringworm will disappear, leaving clear skin. Be sure to indicate the source when reprinting: Source.

I treated my pink lichen with Naftaderm ointment, which my doctor recommended. The ointment helped, and I still remember with horror those terrible spots on my body.

Marina

For some reason, the yoda is growing. Bubbles are appearing along the edges.

People, my children brought from kindergarten: my son is 2.5 years old and my daughter is 4 years old. My son had 7 of these spots appear after the bath, he only had one on his forehead before, and my daughter had them on her head. You shouldn't drink any pills; you are poisoning your child and may end up without grandchildren in the future. We treated everything with folk remedies! For my son, I mixed vinegar with vodka in a 1:1 ratio and applied it with newspaper resin, and within 10 days it all disappeared. It was more complicated with my daughter; the remedies didn't help her, but I boiled sunflower oil and cauterized the focal point with a cotton pad, and by morning everything was gone. This parasite is afraid of burning pain, so you need to cauterize everything. Iodine and vodka, celandine, apple cider vinegar, fukorcin, and apply with raisins, newspaper resin, and spots on the shaved head. I didn’t let anyone shave them without useless doctors; I managed! Wishing everyone good health.

Yulia

People, first of all, it's essential to consult a doctor immediately (before that - do not wet!!!). Next, it is mandatory to take a scraping and conduct a culture to identify the type of fungus (THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!). There is a type of fungus ringworm that people treat for months. Therefore, it is crucial to determine the correct treatment right from the start and not to waste time unnecessarily. All the folk remedies listed (iodine, tar, Yams ointment, burnt newspaper, salidol, vinegar, etc.) do NOT HELP a specific type of ringworm fungus (I simply do not know what it’s called but have personally faced this issue), and only contribute to its spread (in quantity and size...). It’s just horrifying.
Demand all the information from the doctors so they can explain in detail about the ringworm itself (specific type of fungus, how to treat it, all the procedures that need to be carried out down to the millimeter - whether it is (not) necessary to go beyond the borders of the focus during treatment, etc.). Being informed is YOUR main weapon against this "plague". Wishing everyone good health!!!

Important!!!

Tar is the best remedy! Tested

Alexey

Apply iodine and once it dries, use Sinoflan.

Kanan

I have developed a pink spot on my face, I've applied Synoflan ointment but it doesn't help. What should I do to avoid harming my face?

Nazgul

HELLO, CAN THIS OINTMENT BE APPLIED TO A 4-YEAR-OLD CHILD?

OKSANA

Hello everyone, do you know that Exoderil didn't help me? I am wiping it with apple cider vinegar and it seems to be getting better.

Gulya

I’ve been treating it for the second week now, clotrimazole and sulfur didn’t help, I’m following your recipes, just combined everything!
Garlic through a garlic press into a piece of gauze, add a few drops of camphor oil and a little apple cider vinegar! With this tampon I cauterize several times a day, and then, just to be sure, I sprinkle it with cigarette ash! It seems to be starting to retreat! I’m also on my third day of taking Exifin!

Faith

The doctor prescribed me Exoderil salicylic ointment and Fukortsin

Masha

There was already a ringworm, we got rid of it with vinegar and it really helps. After a year, a strange spot appeared on my chest (it's flaky and a little different from the regular skin color). It doesn't look like ringworm, but it's still a bit scary. What could this be?

Urgently.

I recommend vinegar, it helps a lot!!!

anon

How quickly does ringworm spread? I've searched the entire internet, but I don't know where to start the treatment

Sergio

I tried apple cider vinegar. It’s fizzing a lot. Is that normal?

guest

I caught ringworm from my cat. I'm applying iodine. It seems to be gradually getting better. I'm afraid it will turn into tinea. I'll also try apple cider vinegar. What else helps? Please let me know.

Guest

The most effective way is resin from paper. It helps from the first time. Nothing else is needed. For both people and animals. I was advised by acquaintances in my childhood; I had ringworm for about two weeks, underwent scraping, applied something, but as soon as I applied this resin once, the nurse was surprised, asking how did this happen? At first, they didn’t say anything, probably afraid I’d be scolded for using unknown substances, but the scrape showed that everything was just wonderful and there weren’t even any traces. Just to be safe, they didn’t let me go to school for another week. Then everyone recommended it, and everyone confirmed the effectiveness of this method. So don't be afraid; you won't get burned badly, it's unpleasant, of course, but you won’t need to waste so much money. You need to burn clean paper.

Hello! My daughter developed spots during the summer. We went to the hospital, and they said it was pityriasis rosea. They prescribed shaving the affected areas twice a week and applying household soap, then applying iodine mixed one-to-one with water, and using Terbinafine ointment. We treated it, took all the tests, and I thought it was finally over, but after 1.5 months, it reappeared in the same places. Not knowing what to do, I was advised to use an old folk method: burn newspaper on a plate, from which tar is released. While it's not cooled down, quickly apply it to the affected areas. Now we apply it, and everything is improving!
Wishing everyone good luck and a swift recovery!

Alina

Sophora japonica tincture is a very effective remedy, available at the pharmacy.

Olya

I ONLY APPLY IODINE AND THAT'S IT.

ALIX

My son (6 years old) has been suffering from ringworm for 3 months. Now I've caught it, and I have it on my forehead. How can I treat it? Please advise.

Akmaral

I had something similar. The doctors treated me for a long time, but no one could really help. Once, while in Thailand, I showed my lesions to a local healer. He looked at them and gave me an ointment, and lo and behold, literally the next day everything started to subside, and in a couple of weeks it all disappeared! Recently, I found out that a girl I know has similar problems; she stopped talking to a boy because she had many patches of skin covered in these spots. I suggested she give it a try, and since nothing else had helped her, she decided to try it, and she got the same result—the condition disappeared! Whether this is a miracle or medicine, I won't claim, but the result is clear!
If anyone is interested, feel free to write. I'll help however I can!

Ruslan

My grandmother has a rash on her head, and we don't know how to treat it. I've already searched the entire internet and wrote down several tips in my notebook. When I visit her, we'll do what I've noted from the internet.

Lyuba

I have a spot on my hand, on my shoulder, and on my genitals. Is it not serious? I am very scared. Please tell me what to do,

Asem

Hello! This is the first time I’ve encountered this; please help me understand how to treat it and which tests need to be done after treatment.

Asem

I have had a rash for three weeks now. Only now did I decide to see a doctor (it's better to do it right away). I was prescribed iodine mixed with vodka 50/50 and an ointment.

I have been applying it for 10 days and only now is it starting to improve. My rash looks like a spot with a light pink border around it. The doctor said that the rash is contagious, although the websites on the internet say otherwise.

Katya

Hello, my daughter developed a multicolored lichen, we immediately consulted a dermatologist. Treatment was prescribed. It only got worse from that treatment.

We went back to the same doctor, who prescribed other medications. When we went to the pharmacy to buy the medicines, the pharmacist asked, 'What’s wrong with your daughter?' We showed her the shoulder. She told us, no need for any ointments or pills, and brought us sodium thiosulfate solution and 6% hydrochloric acid solution.

First, you need to shake the sodium thiosulfate and apply it to the affected area; it will be covered with a white coating, as if it were smeared with chalk. Keep it like that for about 10 minutes, then wipe with a cotton pad moistened with hydrochloric acid.

Do this 2-3 times a day. And of course, follow hygiene rules, avoid synthetic clothing, and do not eat sweets or spicy food. Believe me, it worked like a charm. We were afraid the spots would remain. Everything is gone. I hope our experience helps someone.

Tatyana

Mix 1 egg white with 1 teaspoon of 70% vinegar. The liquid will turn white, apply it to the affected areas as often as possible.

Katya

There was an outbreak of ringworm, nothing helped. Both griseofulvin and iodine for treating animals and other remedies.

The spot went away, but then it became larger. I was already thinking about a skin transplant.

I found in Malakhov's book that someone treated it. I also tried boiled urine, as I was ready to try anything.

I made a compress under plastic wrap for a day and then changed it. There was no odor. It cleared up in two days. But I went for a week just in case.

Irina

Baniocin helped a lot

Guest

GIRLS, THE CONDOM CREAM HELPS A LOT..

SVETA

I caught ringworm from the neighbor's kitten, and then my husband followed. Believe it or not.

In 10 days we recovered. Do you know how? In the morning and evening we smeared ourselves first with formic alcohol, and then with furacilin, and that was it.

I was even surprised how easy it was. I read all the comments here and was amazed at what people are putting on, nonsense. If the ringworm is not advanced, it heals quickly.

Olga

If you have ringworm, try applying Belogent - cream, green tube.

Marina

Lyudmila - this is similar to what I had... but I was treated for allergies for 3 years... in the end, a female doctor came from Sofia, took one look at me and said it was pityriasis rosea, which is not contagious.

She cured me in 10 days - cheap and effective: a solution of clotrimazole, apply gently rubbing all affected areas twice a day - in the morning and evening. After you apply the clotrimazole solution, wait for about 15 minutes, and then apply a thin layer of Exefin ointment without rubbing, both in the morning and in the evening for 10 days.

Also, buy some vitamins and take them to boost your immune system; she prescribed me Kvadevit.

Svetlana

For 40 years every spring, I have had pinkish-brown spots on my shoulders and neck. They increase in size and number. One doctor advised me to wipe them several times a day (the more often, the better) with a boric acid solution; they go away after 7-10 days. From the descriptions, it looks like tinea versicolor, but no tests have been done.

Lyudmila

one egg, 1 tsp vegetable oil, 1/2 tsp vinegar, mix everything, keep in a closed jar, apply to the rash

irina

If there is one spot, then it has come from a person. From an animal, there will be many spots.

In childhood, there was one spot on my neck. Doctors tried many treatments, prescribed different ointments. They did scrapes. I thought I would have a hard time attending school for a long time.

A friend advised me: burn clean paper on a plate (we were told to use a sheet of notebook paper, it works better than packaging paper), I applied this yellow resin just once, the next day we did a scrape - everything was clean, the doctor was surprised!!!

Just to be safe, we kept it at home for a couple more days, did a scrape - no scales!!!!! So many acquaintances were infected before, everyone was told this recipe - it worked for everyone from the first time!

In the veterinary pharmacy, there is APIT ointment, everything will be fine in 10 days, that's how I treated my grandson, YAMT didn't help, APIT is better

Gennady

fungin - the effect that follows the day

salicylic acid and sulfur ointment - tested, fast, and effective

Anna

I'm 14 years old, I got a cat from a decent family. The cat lived for 2 weeks, and only when I went to wash her did I notice a spot on her belly where there was no fur. I didn't pay attention to it.

But after 5 days, the cat developed ringworm on her head. I took her to the vet. Everything was confirmed; the diagnosis is RINGWORM.

There are 5 people in my family. My mom and sister got sick, but my brother and dad didn't.

We have been treating the ringworm for 2 months now; it is healing, but then it reappears. We don't know what to do, we are applying Yam, it helps, of course, but not for long.

We didn’t throw the cat away right away, only after a month. We hope to get better before summer comes. I wouldn’t wish anyone to walk around with spots.

how long to keep the ointment YAM

Anna

I am 14 years old, and I discovered an unknown rash on my shoulder, but I didn't know it was a rash, so I walked around with it for 2 weeks. During this time, it grew from 1 centimeter to 3 or even 4.

I didn't show this patch to anyone, just scratched it and scratched it, and then I washed it. The day after I washed it, I found a group of pimples on my waist, then a couple on my chest, and more, and more, until my parents noticed it. They saw it when the rash had spread all over my back, stomach, and chest.

The dermatologist in our city got sick, so we visited different doctors and went for a diagnosis with a Wood's lamp. All the results indicated that it was a rash.

We started treating it with iodine (it burned, but it was bearable). At first, it seemed like it wasn't helping, but then the rash spread to my neck, face, hands, and legs.

Then we applied "Yam" ointment - there was some result, but not much. My parents figured it out - first iodine, then ointment, alternating and not stopping. They applied iodine all over my body for 2 days, twice a day in the morning and evening, and after drying out the rash, they applied "Yam" ointment for 2 days, 2 times a day in the morning and evening.

RESULT: The large patch on my skin disappeared, the rash on my chest, back, and stomach began to fade. On my neck and face, everything indicated that it would soon start to fade too; on my hands, legs, and groin - that's where we are defeating it. However, since it hasn't completely spread there, it is still trying to grow back, but that's not surprising - it's a fungus.

In general, it's going away, although before that, my whole body was covered with horrible groups of pimples and small patches (the revealed rash). Iodine and "Yam" ointment are effective remedies.

Ideally, iodine should be applied to the affected areas of the body 2-3 days, twice a day in the morning and evening; if the whole body is affected - APPLY TO THE ENTIRE BODY!!!!

"Yam" ointment (can be obtained from veterinary clinics - I still apply it, while I've been using it for 2 days, twice a day in the morning and evening. I am a 14-year-old teenager, a future man, and this has helped me.

Viktor

You can get rid of the ringworm in one day by applying iodine, and on another day using sulfur ointment - I did it myself

WRESTLER

I spoke, then the healer said to mix a tablespoon of store-bought sour cream and plantain so that it wouldn't be liquid, and apply this mixture on a clean sheet of notebook paper an hour before bedtime and overnight, and continue until the skin is clear. Then, rub the mark left by the lichen with the skin of a raw potato. Wishing everyone health, do not get sick!

Nursultan

I want to share a recipe for curing any ringworm; it's such a nuisance, people try all methods, but the result is zero.

A woman taught me, but unfortunately, she is no longer here. Her kids, aged 4 and 6, had tinea capitis, and the hospital's treatment yielded zero results.

They were sent to the regional hospital to be admitted. On the train, an old man approached and asked where they were going. He noticed a girl in a scarf and a boy in a hat.

She shared her troubles, and he gave advice: 50 grams of kerosene and 1 teaspoon of salt, mix it and apply with a cotton swab, twice a day for about 3 days, and you'll see the result; everything will clear up and hair will start to grow.

It smells, but what can you do? The result is visible.

And I want to suggest to those who have pets—cows, dogs, cats—any animals that have ringworm, also apply this, and you will save your pets.

I wish you a quick recovery.

Larisa

garlic and garlic again

Tatiana

garlic is the best

daniel

The cat had ringworm, I trimmed her fur short, applied iodine with vodka once, then applied 4% apple cider vinegar four times, bathed her with shampoo and creolin, and then applied a mixture of oil and tar (a little bit of tar). I put her in a dress so she wouldn't lick it, and that's it. She's already growing her fur back.

But I decided to treat her with griseofulvin at a dose of 1/8 twice a day just in case.

fgkty

Moistened the fogged windows. It helped.

Svetlana

The child has something like a bald spot on the head - a small patch. And then it becomes more and more. I applied iodine, but it doesn’t help, and the main thing is - it itches, what could this be?

Tanya

I have been a cat and dog lover since childhood, and I've had my fair share of parasites. The quickest and most budget-friendly solution is dried fruit!!! Cut it in half, rub it on the affected area, and there will be no parasites.

Lyudmila

I went to the doctor. I had tests done. They diagnosed me with tinea corporis. They prescribed wax strips, iodine, and sulfur ointment. The strips are needed to remove the hair of the fungus located in the area of reproduction. Cauterize with iodine, apply the ointment thickly, and cover with a bandage. It hurts the skin terribly. But the doctor warned that the infection focus should kind of burn out, be eradicated. I don't know, I've just started treatment. We'll see. I'll write later.

Olga

The child has a spot on their head - it's ringworm. I applied Mikosept liquid; it helps, but not quickly...

Natalia

YAM ointment is a very good remedy

darina

My cat got sick with ringworm. He found his own remedy: he would sleep on the saddle blanket we used for the horse. The ringworm completely disappeared without any treatment.

Ringworm and many blood-sucking insects cannot stand the scent of horse sweat. During the war, my grandfather transported gold washed from the mines to Semipalatinsk, and at night, we had to stay in auls where there was no plumbing, and people often suffered from ringworm; there were lice in the yurts.

So he would throw his clothes over the horse at night. And he never brought home any insects or ringworms.

At home, I would burn the ringworm with birch tar. I applied the tar to the ringworm several times a day. It goes away, but not immediately.

Eva

I forgot to mention - the cats received treatment with griseofulvin and were washed with creosote water. And I washed the dog with shampoo that contained tar. It helped. The main thing is not to overfeed, as they need immunity. Add love to the process, you'll even enjoy it!

Letka

In September, I discovered a small pink spot on my son's head, he is 2.6 years old. I didn't pay much attention to it, I had never encountered ringworm before.

Two weeks later, my mother-in-law visited and said that we have ringworm, it was Friday evening. We decided to go to the doctor on Monday, but my husband went straight to the pharmacy - they gave him Loriden.

The pharmacist said that her son had ringworm and she treated it for 3 days and it went away. We applied the ointment for 2 days, the spot turned white and I removed the flakes at the edges, then I applied the ointment for another three days.

Visually, it seemed like everything was gone, I calmed down, and we didn't go to the doctor. But a week later, a pink spot appeared again, this time larger.

I followed the same scheme again, but after some time everything repeated. We went to the hospital - the dermatologist was on vacation, I didn't know what to do, so I searched the internet for folk remedies.

I applied cranberry juice to the spot, and little red dots appeared; I cauterized them with iodine.

But the child scratched his skin on his belly, and a spot with a halo appeared. I applied a cranberry compress to that spot for two hours, then for another two hours.

My son complained it stung, but he endured it. Then I applied iodine to his belly for another day. We met an acquaintance who works in a laboratory, and we agreed to take a scraping for the fungus.

They didn't find anything on his belly, but found something on his head. We were all in a panic - we didn't know how to treat it, and all the doctors were on vacation. We live in a small town. We found the address for dermatology in the area. I went there, and the doctor shone a Wood's lamp - there was green light on the head, but none on the belly.

The doctor said we burned it off on the belly. He prescribed treatment with Griseofulvin 22 mg/kg tablets and to apply 5% iodine, sulfur-tar ointment at night.

Wash the hair with Nizoral shampoo. Shave the head bald, disinfect the house.

Now we're into the third week of treatment, and sometimes it gets better, sometimes worse. I tried raisins and celandine - it seemed to go away but then small pustules appeared again and a sore formed in that spot.

Since yesterday, I started to apply Yam ointment in the morning, and in the evening, as the doctor prescribed. It seems there is some improvement.

During the treatment, two more spots appeared on the body - I treated them with raisins - and they went away in one go. But on the head, it had progressed significantly by the time we consulted a doctor. The Loriden ointment only removed the inflammation on the surface, while the fungus spread inside the bulbs. I still regret that we didn't go to the doctor in time.

How to treat ringworm? I didn't know that I shouldn't wash. We have even more spots now, what should I do????

Razilya

green dye helps with lichens

butt

Tinea - don't apply hormones! Go see a vet..
Clotrimazole - resulted in an allergy. My head was like a barrel, we consulted a doctor, and the next day I was on the operating table.

The doctors said it was the first case like this in 15 years; I was 6 years old... During the surgery, the doctor came out to my mom and said to pray that I do NOT DIE.

For ringworm, don't apply hormone treatments, use sulfur-tar or Yam - good luck with your treatment!

Caesar

By the way - wash clothes and rinse them in a solution of water with added vinegar. Iron everything and spray the apartment and wipe it down with vinegar water. And steam the carpets through a gauze cloth. But this is if there are pets in the house. Treat animals at the veterinarian. Don't throw them away. The Earth is round. Good luck! And don't panic. Ringworm loves panic!

ak

In the summer at the dacha, I got microsporia. A spot on my neck. At first, I treated it with a bleach solution. The spot became red. The next day, I used iodine, and the redness spread more. After that, I applied green paint - the spot stopped itching and started to peel. A few more times with green paint and iodine, I finished the treatment with Clotrimazole. It all went perfectly.

kjjh

Can you please advise what to do? My children have ringworm, we are applying ointment (Onabet) and taking pills (Lamisil), but it is not helping. What should we do? This nightmare has already lasted for four weeks.

Tatyana

Another way. I just tried it; it should help. Treat the apartment (floor, walls, soft furniture) with a sodium hypochlorite solution (bleach).

Treat the skin spots with ZOOMIKOL (available at veterinary pharmacies). Do not wash for 3-4 days. This same remedy can be used for animals. Treatment every three days. Give the animal Vakderm (another vaccination in 10 days).

Also, apply sulfur ointment on the affected areas. The cost is affordable for everyone. ZOOMIKOL - 300 rubles, sulfur ointment - 10 rubles. Vakderm - 150 rubles. Bleach - 20 rubles. In total, it's about 500 rubles. The treatment cost is sufficient for both the animal and a small family. Good luck, I've also just started treatment myself.

Evgeny

I have ringworm on my hand and I bought the ointment Ftorocort, it's already getting better

Faiz

Nina. Try Yam, my baby also had it on his cheek, then it spread all over his body, Yam helped in 1.5 days.

Oksana.

I work as a veterinary paramedic, caught ringworm from calves and even infected my daughter. We're treating it with iodine; the veterinary ointment Yam and Clotrimazole help a lot.

Love

what forms a crust, while inside there is liquid and it spreads immediately can be called streptoderma (water blister), apply fukortsin and zinc ointment and take amoxiclav

Rihanna

My child is one year old, had ringworm too, then it passed to me and my husband. I tried everything from the list above, and only YAM helped, VERY EFFECTIVE REMEDY. I bought it at a pet store. Good luck everyone)))

Oksana

My child had a rash, we tried everything, and in the end, the YAM ointment helped.

Yana

My child is 1.8 years old and has ringworm on his head from a cat. We've been treating it from May to September. We consulted a doctor at the clinic, who said to get tests for liver function, a general blood test, and urine at the children's clinic, then return to her for treatment.

We took the tests and oops, the results were bad, and we can't treat with antifungal medications, and then the question arose, how to treat????

Sulfur-tar ointment, anti-dandruff shampoo, iodine, and candid cream; change the hat every two hours, wash the bedding daily and iron everything... (I don't have that many hats, so I changed them, but not that often; bedding twice a day, cleaning with Domestos), I read the forums and decided I would apply Yam + anti-dandruff shampoo + iodine (we stopped after the 5th application due to skin burns, and the doctor canceled it), and from June to August, there were no results.

We went to the sea - I thought the sea salt would work wonders, but alas. Then I read online that I should perform depilation. I bought an ultraviolet lamp for 200 rubles at a regular store, used it, and there was a terrible colony of green spots.......... we immediately shaved the child and started depilating the ringworm (the child was too small to let me pick at it with tweezers in the head), so I did all the work at night while he slept.

In general, for 1.5 months, we struggled day in and day out (then I noticed that the glow became more voluminous; I thought it was from the Yam, as we applied it along the edges of the ringworm, I got scared and decided to start applying candid cream, and that’s when it started: instead of 2 cm in size, the ringworm grew to half the head), and then I realized that there were two possibilities for my diagnosis:

1. the ringworm has grown that much or

2. an allergy.

The glow from the ultraviolet lamp was green............. I stopped applying it, only left the sulfur ointment and anti-dandruff shampoo once a day...... I took very sticky tape and started to remove all the scales + shaving, and after a couple of days everything stopped glowing, and my little ringworm remained, with just a few glowing hairs......

We came to take the scraping, and voila....NEGATIVE..... I was shocked, the doctor was shocked....but of course, I didn't give up, I continued the depilation.....today we took the scraping for the second time, the result is unknown, but frankly, I don’t care; I know we are almost done, and I am very happy about that.......

So I wish everyone not to get sick with this thing, and if you do have it, fight it, don’t panic, restore your immunity, and everything will work out for you............... and also, for those with ringworm on their body, use tape more often; I think that’s also necessary in the treatment.

Hello, I had ringworm on my face. At first, I applied iodine, burned it, then used an ointment. I applied aloe every half hour, sulfur ointment for itching, and healing ointments. I can say for sure, definitely use aloe.

Lyudmila

We were at the dacha, feeding a stray kitten, and in the end, ringworm.... Don't wet it, ringworm loves to propagate in a damp environment, for the first 5 days treat it with iodine, twice a day, iodine burns it, then for 5 days apply sulfur ointment or Yam ointment (it is sold in veterinary pharmacies), apply twice a day..

Both sulfur and Yam also burn it, it really needs to be burned... besides this, I took Kestin for allergies and Irunin, 2 capsules a day for 14 days... I will remember these days for a long time... horror!!!! The main thing is not to let it go... and not to wet it!!!!

Evgenia

Garlic helps a lot. By the first day, I noticed a significant decrease.

My child first developed a lump on the shoulder, filled with fluid... the lump burst after a day and a plaque grew with a "coin" pink color, periodically oozing, then two more plaques of the same kind appeared....

In general, today we went to the dermatologist.... We took tests, they said it was a fungal skin disease.... The doctor prescribed treatment: for the first three days, apply iodine three times a day, then for another three days, apply the "YAM" preparation - sold at veterinary clinics... we started treatment today (I hope everything will be fine!....)

Svetlana

People, respond to my words...You can treat a ringworm with a cigarette - take a cigarette, light it, and set it aside away from children; when it turns to ashes, let it cool, then apply it to the area with ringworm and it will go away over time. Do not wash off the ashes until they are fully absorbed, repeat the same the next day, and continue until it disappears...

Gabriela

I only started to get rid of ringworm after I bought 6% apple cider vinegar and applied it to the lesions three times a day...

It's actually much easier to treat animals. Take your dog to the vet clinic; by the way, I work there, and they treat them like this: three Vacciderm vaccines with an interval of 10-14 days... after the first injection, ringworm in animals begins to resolve!

I personally confirmed this on my kitten, who infected both me and my boyfriend((( What type of ringworm do you have? Describe it so I can better understand how I can help you.

Olga

An extremely effective remedy: roll the newspaper into a cone "for seeds" )) place it on a regular plate with the tip up, light it... after it burns, a brown residue, like tar, remains on the plate. Apply the stain. One application is enough to treat the ringworm contracted from animals. Proven.

Sasha

I've heard about medical tar, but where can I buy it??? It’s not sold in pharmacies((( And a question: Has anyone used the TERMICON spray??? Did it help anyone?

Olga

medical tar. Everything the doctors prescribed didn't help. Available in pharmacies. It worked instantly.

faith

Then I took our little cat to the vet, she was examined under a Wood's lamp and glowed green((. Treating cats is easy, the Vakderm vaccine every 10 days and as a preventive measure Fungin spray and Nizoral shampoo!!!

For people, it's more complicated; I have more pink spots because I took a shower and am occasionally itchy... My boyfriend has fewer. We haven't been to a dermatologist yet; there's no time at all.

We've been treating ourselves for 6 days now: I found that applying 5% iodine as often as possible is better, and I've tried applying burnt paper twice; it seems to help!

Today, I bought apple cider vinegar; I read that it helps, and tomorrow I'll try it with raisins. I have 2 questions! What are the symptoms of recovery, and when does the crust appear??? I already have 4 spots covered with crust...

And another question: does tanning help? I want to go, but I can't decide... Thank you in advance!!!

Olga

I bought a kitten near the metro, its owner said not to throw it out, it brings happiness, a tricolor cat... "Happiness" came to us exactly a week later... in the form of a лишняя!!

First came the Momka, as they call her, and then pink spots all over the body... since August 31, my boyfriend and I have been treating it... cauterizing with iodine, the Clotrimazole ointment doesn’t help us personally, today I bought apple cider vinegar, it stings in some places, 2 spots have already gone away...

The main thing in this matter is not to wash (which is terrible) and not to scratch! We have isolated our kitten in the kitchen.

Olga

My doctor prescribed that I apply iodine and after a few minutes, once the alcohol evaporates, to apply the TRIDERM ointment, and it worked wonders, everything started to heal quickly, give it a try!

Katya

The child had something on his head, we struggled for six months, we tried everything: burning newspapers and different ointments. We finally cured it with celandine, but the main thing is not to overdo it, so you don't burn the skin!!!

Irina

6% apple cider vinegar really helps! (it's brown and sold at Pyaterochka for 15 rubles.) Also, the quartz lamp dries it out and the scab falls off immediately (the lamp costs 2000 rubles, but it's always needed)

Guest

The doctor prescribed LAMISIL and iodine in the morning, I hope it helps

Yulia

First, I'll talk about cats and then about people. I found a kitten who lived with us for about a month. Initially, he had a spot on his nose that looked like a sore. I didn't think much of it, but eventually, my girlfriend, with whom I live, developed a round inflammation on her skin. She went to a dermatologist, and they said it was ringworm.

We immediately took the kitten to the vet. We also have an adult cat living with us, and he also caught the ringworm. The veterinarian said to keep the kitten separate from everyone else (we isolated him in a separate room).

In the clinic, they gave the kitten 2 injections (100 rubles and 250 rubles). The adult cat also got one for 100 rubles. They prescribed FUNGIN (a great thing) for the kitten and an injection every week (for 6 weeks).

For the adult cat, it was once every 2 weeks, and we had to apply the affected areas with YAM ointment (100 rubles). The kitten seems to be recovering. But the adult cat is losing hair. I called the vet and said the YAM ointment doesn’t seem to work for the cat — could we use FUNGIN on him? They told me to apply it. But why was YAM prescribed? YAM is stronger, and we need to shave the areas where we apply it.

The second week is coming to an end. We consulted with the veterinarian about how to treat ourselves. They gave us a list of what the dermatologist prescribed and said not to apply salicylic ointments — that's outdated; it could take 6 months to heal with those.

They advised to apply YAM (100 rubles) and take the tablets prescribed by the dermatologist EXIFIN (716 rubles). The next day, I also caught it.

I treated myself with YAM (for 3 days) — new spots started to appear. I switched to iodine first, then YAM, and the EXIFIN tablets. In the end, I went to an ELITE clinic (the company I work for covers all medical expenses), where I explained my treatment.

They approved the entire treatment regimen but said that iodine with YAM ointment should be applied at least 6 times a day. And the tablets should be taken 2-3 times a day; for girls, 1-2 times a day. And in three weeks, we need to go for a scrape at the dermatologist.

However, at the ordinary dermatology appointment, they still told my girlfriend to use different ointments and mix iodine with vodka. Despite her treatment for a week (before treatment, 21 spots appeared), many spots disappeared, and the others turned into a scab, but we still continue the treatment.

In 5 days of treatment, starting with iodine, holding YAM ointment for 5-15 minutes and then removing it. Everything turned into scabs, and some fell off (but I will continue treatment until clinical recovery).

I'm also taking vitamins Complivit (111 rubles), and since the kitten was everywhere, we need to disinfect the apartment. (I read that the spores causing ringworm can live on the floor, sofa, etc., for up to 2 years).

I also bought a quartz lamp today (2000 rubles). If you're going to buy one, get a medical-grade quartz lamp.

TREATMENT. IT IS DESIRABLE TO DO AT LEAST 2-6 TIMES A DAY, STARTING WITH IODINE FOR 5-15 MINUTES (TO LET IT ABSORB), THEN YAM OINTMENT FOR 5-7 MINUTES, AND REMOVE WITH A COTTON PAD. AND TAKE TABLETS AND VITAMINS. AND IT IS ESSENTIAL TO GO FOR A SCRAPE AT THE DERMATOLOGIST. RINGWORM AFFECTS EVERYONE DIFFERENTLY.

Arthur

Oh, and this nasty thing - ringworm! At first, I didn't pay much attention, went to the sea - I thought it would just go away by itself, but no such luck! In the end, I let it get worse when I came back from the sea - I took a bath, and it (the ringworm) was just waiting for that - it spread to the nearest areas of my body, and that's when I realized what a nightmare this is!

I started applying everything listed on this page! Ointment, garlic, iodine, rubbing in salt - all of this is very painful, I suffered a lot, my skin is delicate, I stopped sleeping, panicked, started praying (I never go to doctors).

The idea came to me that I needed to buy a quartz lamp, and only after the quartz treatment did the improvement start. What I realized is that the worst part is the panic that this crap will never go away.

You need to fight ringworm for a long time and persistently (if it's advanced).

Try to affect it every 4 hours with something it doesn't like.

Ringworm loves moisture. I still haven't completely defeated it, there are still a few traces, I understand that I can't relax.

In the end, the ultraviolet lamp helped me.

Alena

People!! I want to quickly write about treating ringworm. Rub apple cider vinegar (6%) several times a day with cotton or a bandage (rub it in!) for 1-3 days and everything goes away. At first, the area affected by ringworm becomes flaky, and then it all disappears. A miracle! I found a cure for ringworm. You can also apply synthomycin ointment after that.

Vika

Candida ointment helps a lot with ringworm. I apply it to my daughter, and it clears up.

Anna

Can ringworm on the head be treated without shaving the hair?

Masha

Pink spots appeared on my hand, stomach, and legs, and within a few days grew to the size of a five-ruble coin. There is a red rim around them, smooth skin inside, and a flaky spot in the middle. I went to the dermatology clinic - the diagnosis is mycosis.

They prescribed treatment: Lamisil tablets for 14 days and to apply Mycospor ointment to all affected areas twice a day for also 14 days. I should not wash for several days. I have been following these procedures for the 5th day now - as a result, no new sores appeared, the old ones have dried up and are decreasing, some are practically not visible anymore.

On the second day after I started applying the ointment, all the sores seemed to increase in size, and the edges swelled with fluid; by evening, the skin cracked and fluid leaked out from each sore in turn, forming scabs that started to tighten and fall off.

I understood that when treating ringworm, one should not panic if it seems that the treatment is not effective and just continue to apply the ointment regularly. I got infected from my cat, and today we took him to the vet, who checked him under a lamp - he lit up, although externally there was nothing resembling ringworm; it seemed that the shedding had simply stretched a bit.

The cat was shaved, prescribed to be washed with nizoral twice a week, and given antifungal tablets for two weeks, then a 7-day break and another 7 days of tablets, and this continues until complete recovery.

The apartment needs to be cleaned with chlorine-containing agents.

Polina

The creamgen ointment 100% will help - wishing everyone a speedy recovery

Roma

I once had ringworm too. My mother treated it with a decoction of wormwood, celandine, and succession. You need to wipe it with a hot decoction so that the liquid doesn't spread further. Only this helped, and before that, we tried everything.

tatyana

Termicon spray works well. It's 200 rubles at the pharmacy, spray twice a day for 2 weeks.

Inga

I'm glad I read this page, it reminded me of that ointment that helped me quickly once - benzyl benzoate, mentioned here once, the ringworm is already at the coin...

olia

Today we were prescribed NITROFUNGIN and FUNGOTERBINE cream. We applied it for the first day, we'll see what happens next.

guest

We were at the dacha, the child brought a kitten that turned out to have ringworm. A few days later, I noticed it in the kids. We immediately took the kitten away. I'm treating it with vinegar, propolis tincture, sea buckthorn oil, and raisins.

Natasha

Garlic helps well)

Dima

brine from pickled or canned cucumbers helps (apply several times a day)

Tatiana

Ichthyol ointment helped me with the ringworm on my fingers - it costs pennies

Sveta

At first, I applied iodine and fungoterbin ointment, but it didn't help. Then I tried iodine and a band-aid, and it seems to be getting better. Also, how can I treat it within a week before camp?

guest

I cured ringworm with a Vietnamese star anise - it helped right away

Tatiana

My son has ringworm on his hand, I applied Pimafucort ointment, but it didn't help, and the ringworm actually worsened.

Anya

I rubbed myself with onion juice, it doesn't sting too much, you could say it hardly stings at all... but there are some strange spots... summer... I really want to swim...

anna

I have a ringworm, it's been 3 days now, my whole leg is covered in small red spots, they itch a lot, and it happens like this every summer, usually it's round and big.

We treated it like this: buy fresh homemade milk, leave it in an open jar overnight, in the morning you wake up and take the film off into a cup (preferably without taking the milk itself), then you whip it so that this mixture becomes like butter and put it in the freezer for a couple of hours, then take it out and apply it to the affected areas for a week, it will all go away.

guest

I healed both my children and myself in three days with this solution: crush ten acetylsalicylic acid tablets into powder and pour medical alcohol over them. Let it infuse overnight. I applied it in the morning and evening. After three days, the scab falls off.

Svetlana

Very effectively helps the following: take a piece of beef weighing about 20-30 grams, pour vinegar over it, and put it in the fridge.

After a while, take this piece of beef, blot the affected area, then put it back. Use it until recovery. Do not throw it away. It can be stored for a long time.

The infection goes away in a week. Tried on myself and my grandchildren multiple times.

Hope

Nurgiza. This is most likely what people refer to as "climatic lichen"; my husband had it. It manifests at a certain time of year, we treated it with formic alcohol and then with Nizoral cream. Everything went away.

Irina

HELLO, I HAVE BEEN STRUGGLING WITH A SKIN CONDITION FOR 10 YEARS. IT STARTS WELL, BUT THEN IT SPREADS ALL OVER MY BODY. IN WINTER, IT DISAPPEARS, BUT AT OTHER TIMES OF THE YEAR, IT FLARES UP. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO, I AM EXHAUSTED - THIS IS MY NUMBER ONE PROBLEM.

NURGYZA

Ointment "ACRIDERM" - the lichen cleared in 2 days

lilu

You only need to see a doctor to ease your conscience. I've had this nonsense on my face for 7 years, and they say "it's not contagious." Try explaining that to everyone. The only ointment that helps is Sinaflan, but you can't use it on your face.

What helps: wiping your face with celandine, homemade apple cider vinegar, but at first it burns, yet when the scab goes away, the skin is clear, but I don't have the patience.

Many criticize folk medicine, but you have your own brain on your shoulders. How can you apply a strong solution of manganese on your face? It's obvious even to a fool that you can get severe burns not just on the skin.

Try everything, BUT in moderation. Don't rely on hormonal ointments - they help for a time.

First, you need to go to a skin and venereal disease dispensary and get tested to determine the type of fungus.

Secondly, try to isolate yourself (specifically the infected areas) from all contact (in the sense that nothing remains that could spread the infection both on your body and to others).

Thirdly, start treatment.

The treatment consists of the following:

1. Treat the affected areas with iodine (you need to treat an area slightly larger than the infected spot). However, do this carefully to avoid burning the skin.

2. Apply sulfur-tar ointment or Yam ointment (available in pet stores) over the iodine. The ointment needs to be applied in a sufficiently thick layer to completely cover the infected areas without any transparency. The ointment has a specific, very unpleasant smell, but you can get used to it.

3. Take tablets according to the instructions. For example, Griseofulvin or its analogs. (However, it is ESSENTIAL to consult with a doctor regarding this point)

4. Keep the ointment on for a considerable duration. About 3 hours or more, if possible. Then carefully remove it using a dry soft cloth or paper.

5. After a dry crust forms, remove it with a plaster (stick the plaster onto the infected area, press it firmly, and then pull it off, then dispose of it immediately). This is necessary so that dead scales do not spread throughout the apartment.

6. At night, the affected areas can be treated with a weak vinegar solution. (Dilute 5% vinegar with water, I cannot suggest the ratio, it should have a slight burning sensation) The treatment is as follows: moisten a cotton swab in the vinegar solution, apply it to the affected area for about 15-30 minutes.

This describes serious treatment for ringworm. This is how it is treated in hospitals.

I had an acquaintance, and he had a mother (this was long ago), and people used to gather at her place from everywhere. She could cure ringworm very quickly, giving out some ointment. Nobody knew what was in it. There was not a single failure!

But he confided in me - in spring, under the fence, under the trees, under the posts, on the grass (wherever one could find it) you could see these white crumbly and even fallen balls, elongated 2-3 centimeters. Dog poop (Oh horror!).

Well, this dry white stuff (when the weather is warm, it is just like that) grandma would collect, grind it into powder, and put it in a jar. And before using it, she mixed this powder with sour cream until it reached the consistency of an ointment. That's it! A couple of times she rubbed it on, and it worked like magic.

Such an amazing recipe. May Old Machinist Uncle Vanya and his Mom forgive me for revealing their terrible secret. I swear, it's for the good, and may everyone stay healthy!

My daughter developed ringworm at the age of 3, and we treated it with NIZORAL ointment. It's a very good product, I highly recommend it!!!!

Anastasia

the first week 5% iodine (2 times a day) - then iodine the same 2 times a day and at night cream "Mikospore"

guest

I recently got shingles, haven't identified it exactly, but it seems like it's "herpes zoster". I'm a physicist, not a microbiologist.

I looked under the microscope, found nothing. It's probably viral.
At first, I took it lightly and treated it with salicylic ointment, but as it turned out, shingles feeds on that.

Then I read about tar. Something fantastic. I applied it, some spots healed right away, while others required a second application.
A product of burning vegetation (pharmaceutical - birch tar) seems to cure all skin diseases,
from parasites and fungi to viruses (including leprosy). Kind of like the death to death remedy.

Don't overdo it; about 5-6 hours after applying all over the body, it starts to itch sharply.

I don't know what to wash it off with. It washes off with water, but it's not recommended, it seems.

Andrei

Oh, I've read so much)) After being treated with these ointments as a child and recently getting infected by a stranger's kitten, I didn't think long—prepared cotton with alcohol. I heated up a rounded metal whisk over an open flame. And... I went over the edges of the ring, wiped everything with alcohol, and forgot... no burn - no ringworm... Such advice doesn't help children; they can get a vaccine against ringworm for cats at the vet pharmacy... and apply it to the spot twice (one day) and again in a week the same way... And generally, with children - to the doctor!

catlover

My daughter has a little red spot behind her ear. We went to the hospital, and the doctor said it was ringworm. She advised us to apply iodine and then nail polish on top. She said that was the best way. Oh, she also prescribed half a tablet of 'L-cet' twice a day. We did all that. It seemed to go away, but after a couple of days, I saw that the spot was starting to turn red again.

But we haven't achieved anything good - the spot is growing. It's been 2 months already. And I found this nasty thing on my own neck. People, help us. What should we do? As you can see, there's no point in going to doctors.

Oh, and I also tried applying burnt paper. I applied it to the spot for a day, and I was so happy that the spot had disappeared. I bought my daughter a few days later. But the next day, I saw that it started to turn red again. I'm out of strength..

vika

My child has a reddish spot that looks like a sore. It has a small crust. It's been there for sure for a couple of months. I thought it was ringworm and started applying iodine (I treated myself this way a long time ago) but there was no reaction. Then I started to think that it could be an allergy. And now I'm back to thinking about ringworm again. But would ringworm spread to the whole family in two months? And would it spread all over the body?

Guest

I have skin lesions all over my body... I've tried everything... maybe I need to treat it from the inside? What do you recommend? Any herbs or tinctures to drink?

Dina

I had lichen twice. Ointments and solutions prescribed by doctors did not help me. After reading about folk medicine recipes, I decided to take action. My first lichen was on the back of my neck. Small round itchy spots. I treated it with drops from burnt newspaper on a plate. I applied it about 3 times in one day. It disappeared forever.

The second lichen occurred a couple of years later on my eyelids. My eyes were itching so much that I didn't know what to apply. Nothing helped. I was afraid to repeat the recipe that had cured me once before, so as not to harm my eyes. But it was really bad, so I decided to take the risk. I applied it the same way. Three times in one day. A black spot appeared on my eyelids from the burning drops of the burnt newspaper. The next day, the skin gradually peeled off, revealing clean eyelids without lichen. I haven't had any problems since then. Take the risk, and you won't regret it. Wishing everyone a speedy recovery.

Lyudmila

Lamitere ointment helps a lot

guest

I have had a rash from my cat for 2 months. I apply iodine every day and use Lamicon ointment, but it doesn't go away. It's getting worse and new spots are appearing. I'm in horror, what should I do???

I've been burning lichens with iodine my whole life!!!! And thankfully, they've gone away!!! Garlic helps too;)

Hello everyone. My child is 3 years old, and we are struggling with ringworm on smooth skin, behind the ear for already 5 months! The infection has returned 3 times, and I am exhausted from fighting it. At first, our pediatrician prescribed Dermovate ointment and 2% iodine. It didn’t help, then we were hospitalized and went through a treatment course: griseofulvin; - Revit (vitamins); - Galstena, sulfur ointment, and iodine! Everything was fine at first with 3 negative tests, but then a week later everything returned, and I was advised to apply mummy! Again, everything cleared up, but not for long. Now we are using antifungal ointment - Lamisil! Meanwhile, I always wash and iron all clothes, as well as the bed linens.

YAM ointment helps, yes, it is an ointment for animals, but the result is good, or sulfur and iodine.

Boil an egg for 40 minutes. Burn the yolk, it will drip oil. Use this oil to apply to the ringworm. Apply from the edge to the center. Good luck. You can also cauterize with oxalic acid and immediately apply any cream. Good luck.

I had ringworm once on the bend of my arm, and I got rid of it with "star treatment"! At first, the spot became a brighter color and increased in size, and then it disappeared.

I do not recommend griseofulvin tablets; they can cause a severe reaction such as angioedema, kidney issues, etc.

Hello. My child had ringworm, the treatment was: first dilute iodine with vodka 1:1 (to avoid burning the skin) and use a cotton swab to apply it to the affected areas of the skin, then apply an antifungal ointment. Unfortunately, I can't remember which one I used. The procedure should be done 3 times a day for a week, then it can be done less frequently. But this was not an advanced stage, and the ringworm was pink.

Apple cider vinegar works well, I know from experience, it helped me. Do not dilute it with anything, use pure apple cider vinegar. You will see the results yourself.

I'm really scared of ringworm, especially the creeping kind. I've developed a pink spot below my knee - it's peeling inside, with a red border around it, not larger than a penny. What should I do?

I was prescribed the ointment "Triderm". At first, it helped, but then the ringworm came back again, and now it has come back for the 4th time. I don't know what to do(((

Can you tell me how long I will have to be treated? I was at the doctor yesterday, and they prescribed me a medicine with YAM and iodine to apply. I used it, and the spots became even larger (((

IOD REALLY HELPS.. FIRST, THE SPOT TURNS RED AND GETS LARGER, BUT THIS IS FROM A SKIN BURN. IF YOU CONTINUE TO APPLY IT, IT WILL 100% GET RID OF THE EXCESS. IT BURNS A LOT WHEN APPLIED - YOU'LL HAVE TO ENDURE. GOOD LUCK WITH THE TREATMENT!

Crush the garlic, wrap the mass in cheesecloth, and apply it to the affected areas of the skin for 10 minutes for 3-4 days. Will this really help?

I bought Synaflan ointment, recommended at the pharmacy. Do you know if it will help?

Right now there are neither Iodomarin in the pharmacies, nor Fukorcin anywhere((((

I started a crazy diet, went to the bathhouse as well. Now I'm applying raisins, I've got a crust and now everything is tightened... It seems to be working, treat yourselves with raisins!!! Black ones help a lot!!!

I had a skin disease. I got infected by my cat. We initially treated the cat with tar (bought it at the pharmacy), but later we took it to the vet. There, it got two shots over 10 days and that was it. I also initially treated myself with tar for a week, it didn’t help, then I bought YAM ointment (it’s for animals) and it cleared up in 3 days. Just to be safe, I applied iodine for a few more days.

Damn, I have ringworm, how do I treat it?? I'm 18 :( I don't have time to go to the hospital - I'm working, I have these pink spots on my legs

I also have three small pink spots on my forehead, under my nose, and on my chin. I think it's also a ringworm. They've been there for about a month, and I've been applying Gioksizone, but it doesn't help. The spots are growing. I'll certainly try several methods that have been suggested here, but I think I will have to go to a dermatologist after all.

please help, what can be done? I have a rash all over my body and it has spread to my child, what should I treat it with!

My little one is 3 years old - my older son infected him, we've tried everything to treat it! The ointment of Yam and Griseofulvin helps. Do not self-medicate, there's no guarantee that it will work. Consult a doctor, and best of all, don't get sick and take care of the kids!

Iodine, Yam ointment - a rash appeared on my shoulder, applying it seems to help

Ringworm is very easy and quick to treat (tested in childhood by my mother). You need a chemical pencil, wet it under water and apply it to all the spots of the ringworm. If the disease is not advanced, everything will pass in 5 days; if it is advanced, you will have to wait a little longer until it goes away!

Small ringworm on the skin in various parts of the body can be eliminated as follows: take a dab of saliva from your tongue with the middle finger of any hand, and then dip that wet finger into fine table salt. Gently rub this salt on the affected area of the body. This is a unique, traditional, and effective method for removing ringworm. Even a single application of this salt on the skin is enough to get rid of the unpleasant disease. My husband struggled to get rid of ringworm for several years, trying all sorts of remedies, but nothing helped. He got rid of the ringworm spots in a week using this method.

an ancient and infallible remedy for ringworm: apply moisture from the condensation on windows to the affected area several times a day

This may seem odd to some, but it works without fail! Apply it to any skin condition with menstrual discharge... just once, or at most, twice. I even use this method to treat my cats... it helps.

We adopted a kitten, and it turned out to have ringworm - my husband, child, and I developed spots only after a week. The cat was vaccinated, and we were prescribed Nitrofungin solution - to apply 2-3 times a day, iodine 5% was said to be ineffective - only the 10% solution by prescription.

Hello! I want to share my experience. I have encountered ringworm, tinea corporis, and tinea rosea multiple times. It’s terrible; my mom was very affected by it. We tried countless remedies, but the most effective were antifungal medications; they are a bit pricey, but the results are quick to show. Use Nizoral anti-dandruff shampoo to wash the affected areas (with a cotton swab or a piece of bandage EACH TIME NEW AND ONLY IN THE SHOWER!) After the shower, be sure to dry off completely with a new towel again every time. Then apply Lamizil spray to the affected areas, and a bit around them! It’s preferable to do this procedure twice a day. My severe case cleared up in 10 days! Get well and take care of yourselves!

Lichen can get bigger because it shouldn't go beyond certain limits. For example, raisins help well, but it shouldn't exceed those limits! That is, apply only to the spot itself.

I was prescribed Dermasol at 1 tablet a day, Carsil at 1 tablet 3 times a day, 5% iodine in the morning, and Clotrimazole in the evening. It seems to help.

We were told to apply and peel off the bandage twice a day. We used paper, Lamisil, ointment, iodine mixed with vodka, an herbal remedy, and garlic from the day of the visit on August 14 until the first good analysis on October 2. Tomorrow we are going for a check-up... it seems to be easing up, the spot is starting to lighten. So far, 3 analyses have found it in the hair.

Does terbinafine ointment help with ringworm????

A spot appeared on my cheek, I thought I was bitten, I went to the healthcare center, they said it was a ringworm! They prescribed 5% iodine in the morning and sulfur-salicylic ointment in the evening, it helps.

I also have some kind of skin problem, maybe a ringworm. There are many small spots on my hands, back, and neck; at first they are red, but not bright, and there's no itching. When the body tans, they tan too, but when the tan wears off, they become light, but not red. I applied NITROFUNGINE to my body, but it takes a long time and the body turns yellow from it, staining clothes. What should I do?

Hello, if anyone is interested in ringworm, read here, I will try to tell as much as possible about this disease! A month ago I got infected from my cat with ringworm. My dermatologist diagnosed it as Pityriasis Rosea on sight and prescribed a hormonal ointment. From this ointment, the ringworm spread at a tremendous speed all over my body. I went to the dermatovenerology clinic, got tested, and was registered with a diagnosis of Tinea Corporis (Microsporia of the smooth skin). I have been undergoing treatment for 2 weeks now, but after using that hormonal ointment, I recorded 192 foci all over my body, so it's not that easy to cure now. Here’s what treatment was prescribed at the clinic: 
-antibiotic Griseofulvin (for adults 8 tablets a day) 
-Karsil (for the liver, since Griseofulvin is considered a very strong antibiotic, 3 times a day) 
-sunflower oil (for the gastrointestinal tract - 1 tablespoon once a day) 
-Zalain ointment (apply 2 times a day) 
-Fukortsin solution (2 times a day) 
And also: 
-never wash (the fungi love moisture and reproduce quickly in such an environment) 
-if you have long hair, definitely collect it in a bun or ponytail (so it doesn’t touch the body, fungal spores can get on the hair and then the ringworm will also spread to the head) 
-wash bed and underwear as often as possible at high temperatures (if possible) and iron on both sides 
-try to clean the apartment more often and wash the floors with antibacterial agents 
At the end of the illness, a disinfection of the housing is performed. Today special people from the dispensary came and disinfected the apartment. You also count as healthy if you have 3 consecutive negative test results (scrapes). Lastly, about washing, as I know many are wondering how long you can’t wash with ringworm. You may bathe only after ALL the crusts from the foci have fallen off, even if all 3 tests after treatment are negative and upon inspection under a Wood's lamp, no ringworm is found, because fungal spores may remain under the crusts.

Ringworm can be treated with raisins. Cut the raisins in half and apply them for 10-15 minutes. Every hour. In 3-4 days, it's as good as new.

My daughter is 3 years old and after a mosquito bite, she scratched her temple and now has some kind of ringworm (it seems like feline type). We have been treating it for the fourth week with iodine and vodka, Lamisil, Anabet, Yam - nothing seems to work. We are keeping it dry and in the tuft of hair, they find something, but it's the second time already. I started applying burnt paper on her cheek... We have a control check in 4 days and are very worried...

very effective pharmacy   bluebottle tincture

Please listen to my advice! I am a doctor myself, when my child had ringworm, I immediately started treatment with Fukortsin. But..... there were no improvements. An old neighbor lady advised "YAM" ointment - my child's body was clean in a week! And I usually don't believe in folk remedies! "YAM" works WONDERS!!!!!!!!!!!!

Treatment for pityriasis rosea - ask your doctor for a referral for quartz therapy. 5 sessions of quartz treatment helped us. Good luck to everyone and get well soon.

I cured ringworm with buckwheat tea

The ointment obtained after burning newspaper is still the most reliable remedy for getting rid of ringworm

Today I bought clotrimazole and fucorcine to do the procedures twice a day.

Once, I got infected by a cat while treating it. I was advised to use iodine, sulfur ointment, and Tavelling tablets twice a day. I had to do all this and not get it wet. It passed, but I had burns from the iodine that eventually went away. Now I caught something again, probably at the river - it appeared right on my shoulder.

The solution of Exoderil followed by Lamikon cream twice a day helps with ringworm - tested.

Ringworm, if it is indeed trichophyton or microsporum, is well treated with ointment for treating ringworm in animals' pits, and as for its smell, well, excuse me, who finds anything easy nowadays. Many veterinary medications successfully help combat human ailments, particularly ASD, mastitis ointment, and equine ointment for joint diseases. In case of microsporum, it is essential to take griseofulvin with oil for at least 7 pills a day for 2 weeks. There are more modern medicines for microsporum, but I have not come across anything better than griseofulvin.

You need to apply it with a cotton pad soaked in a 7% vinegar solution, that's how quickly I cured my cat and myself!!! Nothing else helped before this..

The "YAM" ointment is sold at the veterinary pharmacy, don't be embarrassed! If not severe, it will fade in a couple of days! Ideally, the ointment should be applied continuously on the spot. Personally tested, by the whole family and our "beloved" cat since then)))

I'm 14 years old. A pink spot has appeared, it's peeling. I already understood that it's ringworm; last summer I had the same thing on my stomach, and now it's on my face. I'm in a panic, cried all evening, my whole body itches. (Could it be due to stress?) Last year I treated it with ointments: Atifin and Fungoterbin. I wiped it with alcohol solution. I don't even know what type of ringworm I have now.

I had something like that. They prescribed me pills and 'Lamizil', but the pills were painfully expensive, so I just applied 'Lamizil' for 2 weeks... Everything is fine now)))

I don't know what to do about this? I have pale pink spots on my back, like small coins, and now there are several. At first, there was just one. When my back sweats or I get a tan, they turn red and multiply... then they fade. The tan doesn't settle at all... It's a complete disaster!!! Maybe someone can suggest how to get rid of them 

please help heal pink lichen. I applied streptocide ointment and fukortsin solution, but nothing helps!

Treatment of pityriasis rosea. Pityriasis rosea does not require specific treatment and usually resolves on its own within 5-8 weeks. In some cases, a doctor may prescribe antihistamines (medications that reduce allergic reactions and itching) – Loratadine, Zyrtec, Tavist, etc. It is recommended to limit the frequency of water procedures, as well as to refrain from using cosmetic products for the skin and wearing woolen clothing for some time. The area affected by pityriasis rosea should not be rubbed or scratched.

Our doctor prescribed us to apply the fukarcin solution twice a day, and then the terbinafine ointment. We are undergoing treatment. I am waiting for the results. We are going to a sanatorium in two weeks.

Ringworm should never be allowed to lick animals. That's where it comes from. What nonsense. Ringworm should be treated with Fukortsin, several times a day, zinc ointment on top.

The child has developed several spots on the body and a ring with clean skin inside has formed on the head, covered with a flour-like coating around the ring and broken hairs. They didn't go to the hospital. I made a compress from fresh cranberries (squeezed the berries onto cheesecloth, with a film and mesh) and held it for at least an hour, then rinsed with Nezofarm shampoo. I applied black raisins, and in the morning, Sinaf ointment. I treated around the spots with iodine diluted halfway with vodka. On the body, I alternately applied either cranberry or raisin under the bandage, and periodically smeared with ointment. It cleared up very quickly on the head, within about 5 days. On the body, it took about three weeks. During this time, I ironed the linen and pillowcases every day. I did not cut or shave my hair. I had to treat the whole house with a steam iron. After some time, crusts appeared on the head in the very same place. After hearing my husband's reproaches about how I exacerbated the illness with my actions, I took the child for an analysis. The analysis did not reveal any fungus. It turned out that after various procedures, a seborrheic spot formed, which I treated with church oil, and it all went away! So to everyone, I wish good health, patience in treatment, faith, and everything will be fine!

You won't believe it, but ringworm is treated with raw earth, I won't lie!

The ringworm is treated easiest with iodine in a 1:1 ratio with table vinegar. It's best to apply this solution and then any antifungal cream on top; I've tried it myself. The iodine stings quite a bit, but it's bearable. However, it works well.

Garlic helps a lot, try it; if it doesn't burn at first, it means it's not a loss.

I am already 68 years old and I want to share my experience on treating ringworm. I lived in a rural area, with a cow farm nearby, and ringworm often appeared in both people and animals. We treated it simply and quickly. You take black gunpowder, about half a teaspoon. Pour it into a large aluminum spoon and grind it with another aluminum spoon until it becomes a powder. Then add a little butter to this powder and mix it. You’ll get a black mass. Take a match, wrap a piece of cotton around it, and apply it to the affected area. In about a week, you will see it all go away.

Additionally, I also want to suggest something. For those whose children often have dermatitis, it is very simple to treat. Take reed broomsticks and burn them. Then, apply a solution of potassium permanganate diluted in water to the affected area and sprinkle it with ash from the broomsticks, lightly pressing it with your finger. Soon, it will all come off. When I took my grandson to the doctor and told her how I treated him, she was very surprised. I did not have to sprinkle again. PEOPLE, WISH YOU GOOD HEALTH. Grandpa Nikolai from Kropotkin.

"Candidate B" helped! Everything was resolved in 10 days.

1 part  of children's cream or petroleum jelly (as the base of the ointment) is mixed with salicylic powder (1 part) 
(used in preservation). A white ointment is obtained. This is applied to the sore. It works well.<img alt="indecision" height="20" src="http://www.webzdrav.ru/www/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/whatchutalkingabout_smile.gif" width="20">

The ointment is very helpful, first with iodine, then rub the ointment thoroughly!!!!

There is a wonderful remedy for ringworm; I have treated dogs, cats, and people with it, and before that, my mother treated me with it; it's an old folk remedy. Take clean, good-quality, smooth, waxed notebook paper, crumple it, set it on fire, and hold a dish, glass, or something similar above the flame, but keep it low enough; use glass or preferably porcelain or faience, not plastic. A thin layer of tar will remain on this dish - it should be scraped off and applied to the affected area, taking care to cover the unaffected edge by up to 1 cm - quickly, while it's hot. If it's not enough, burn more paper and continue. Do not cover or wrap it up, but keep it open for a while. It will very quickly relieve the symptoms on the skin. The procedure is done once a day. 2-5 procedures are sufficient.

black raisins... just rub it and everything will come off like magic... it helped me the very first time

Exoderil helps with ringworm

We bought a kitten at the exhibition (I thought I was being cautious about all the unpleasant surprises related to diseases), but it turned out to be FUNGAL((: It managed to stay at our home for 2 days, but that was enough for me to catch this infection too. I took my child to the pediatric dermatologist at the clinic, my daughter was much luckier than me, and my husband and I went to the district dermatology center, where the doctor checked my hair under a UV lamp, said that ringworm usually appears on the head first, then took a scraping from the sore on my arm (1 cm in size, pale with a red border), which only appeared 2 weeks after contact with the infected kitten. I was also constantly itching; the itch was all over my body, it was just torture...brr... He said to come back for a follow-up in 10 days. Here’s what he prescribed for treatment: 
1. Apply iodine-5% and salicylic alcohol-2% to the sore twice a day for 7 days, 
when the sore dries out, apply the ointment "Travocort" for 10 days. 
2. Ointment "Termikon" (it's domestic) - 250 mg, 1 tablet after meals (preferably at the same time) for 14 days. 
3. Do not wash for 5 days to prevent the fungus from spreading all over the body; boil and iron linen and clothes. 
I write this in detail in case it helps someone; good luck to everyone and don't get sick!

At night, apply onion (or use onion juice), it can be simply rubbed on, but it's not as effective...

I treated ringworm in September, but burgundy-blue spots remain where the ringworm was, which haven't disappeared until now. How can I get rid of them?

Benzyl benzoate and sulfur ointment are very effective in treating ringworm. In a ratio of 1:1.

As a child, we used to put sour cream on wounds and let the dog lick it off - it healed quickly.

Hello! Could you please help me? I can't determine if I have ringworm or just a case of self-suggestion)) My cat has ringworm, and I'm experiencing itching all over my body. There was just a pimple on my chest, and now it's turning into a sore, which is getting bigger each day, now about 1 cm. Is itching all over the body characteristic of ringworm, or should only the infected area itch?

At first, there was a small pink rash the size of a penny, then it became wet and grew to the size of 2.5. And now there is some kind of itchy rash all over my body. What should I do?

The whole family got infected((( The doctors said to apply iodine and sulfur ointment, there is also Zalaine ointment, I am using that too. And they prescribed Griseofulvin tablets that need to be taken with sunflower oil(((

I once read a very simple way to combat ringworm; I've tried it more than once on my children - it helps 100% against all types of ringworm! Take some softer raisins, squeeze out the pulp, and rub that pulp onto the affected area of skin - the results won't take long to appear! I apply it to my kids at the slightest reddening of the skin, regardless of whether it's actually ringworm or not - I've never had a failure!
Wishing you and your children good health!!!

Yes, many people with thyroid diseases and other conditions have contraindications for using iodine. Moreover, not all types of fungus have indications for treatment with iodine. Simply put, sulfur ointment is not always effective for treating certain types of disease pathogens. Sulfur-salicylic and especially sulfur-tar ointments have a broader spectrum of action. It is also completely agreed that one should not wash during the treatment period, as the disease can spread throughout the body. Scratching and rubbing the affected areas is also prohibited!

Are you out of your mind? Lichen is primarily treated with iodine!!! Next, apply Exoderm ointment once a day, and sulfur ointment at night. Under no circumstances should you wash; Clotrimazole didn't help because the type of fungus is completely different. I apologize to those to whom Yam worked, but as far as I know, this ointment is for animals :))) It may be effective, but it smells worse than Vishnevsky's ointment!!!

How do you get ringworm? Infection occurs through contact with infected animals or other carriers of the infection. Essentially, you can catch it anywhere in public places - swimming pools, saunas, etc. The risk of infection is higher with a weakened immune system.

HOW TO TREAT LICHEN
Sulfur-tar ointment has a wide range of effects! Apply to affected areas 2 times a day from the periphery to the center for 10 days. During treatment, do not wet the affected areas with water. Wash and iron all clothing, bedding, and other items that come into contact with the patient from the inside. It is better to wear cotton products during the treatment - they are easier to handle.

Do not apply iodine to the fungus under any circumstances.

My child has a ringworm. We went to the doctor, and he said to apply iodine and clotrimazole... After I applied it, the spots became even bigger. What should I do?

Can you advise me on how to treat a ringworm on my face, under my eye? There are three days off ahead, and yesterday I was prescribed a cream - clotrimazole, but it has only gotten worse. I can only see another doctor on Monday.

Yam ointment!!!!! It's an incredible thing!!!!!! The skin rash will go away quickly!

The doctor said the best treatment for ringworm is sulfur ointment and iodine! But first, get tested for the type of fungus!

Help me. The hospital said to apply green antiseptic to the ringworm, but in the end, it got worse, and spots started to appear. Now I'm using manganese. How should I treat it? I'm afraid my hair will start to fall out.

Garlic, rubbed in, helps a lot

In treating human ringworm, celandine is very helpful!!!!!!!!
