Re: help - i think its ringworm

wanted to post thsi update as i have had complete sucess

i went to see a different Gp

he diagnosed the real root cause as defatting of the skin due to frequent washing. leaving the skin ability to defend itself damaged and leading to a combination of fungal and bacterial infections which exist in a symbiotic relationship.

he prescribed a tripple ation cream of antifungal, antiobiotic and steriod to cure the current infections and get teh skin to heal and from then on prescribed use
reducing number and duration of showers within reason ( i had liked to spend a lot of time in the shower)
baths rather than showers
use of soap free cleaning products
use of moisturisers after bathing/showering

i also added to this the use of a good quality conditioner for scalp and genital region to help moisturise

resulst are all good after several months

hope the same simple steps help others
