Hello!

2 Replies

This is my first time here and I’ve had a case of something which the doctors think is ringworm on my right arm, around my elbow area. Once this was discovered, my lips have been wrinkled, chapped, and cracking for nearly a year. I’m still very young and I would love to get help. It’s made me very insecure about my body and I don’t know what to do. Not to mention that the ringworm was getting better until we let a dermatologist get hold of it, it only got worse and it’s been very irritating. I tried a steroid cream, ketoconazole cream and oral, but none seem to work. Please help me!

🙂 Katherine, you would think referral to a Dermatologist would solve it, wouldn’t you. Type ‘ringworm’ in the search box (top right), you’ll see links to other similar posts on the group ‘fungal infection trust’. I hope you find something helpful. 🙂

I really did think seeing a dermatologist would’ve solved it by now 😅, but I suppose it’ll just keep lingering. Also, thank you very much! Have a lovely day. 😊
