- Having a weak immune system from being sick, taking medicine, or feeling stressed
Symptoms:
- Round or ring-like red spots with clear middles and scaly edges (typical ringworm mark)
- Skin that itches, looks red, or cracks and gets worse when you scratch

Frequently Asked Questions
Ringworm is a common genital fungal infection of the skin, nails or scalp. It looks like red, itchy, circular rash. The best treatment for ringworm in humans consist of antifungal creams or, if inhibited, oral meds depending on severity. At Sky Skin and Laser Clinic, we provide treatments for all types of ringworm depending on each case.
Fungal skin infections will show as patches of red, and/or itching, peeling, or blistering. Fungal skin infections are common in areas of high humidity, and they must be diagnosed properly. If you ever aren’t sure if you have a fungal infection, it is best to consult the a dermatologist who can confirm the infection and make sure treatment for a fungal infection on skin is started immediately.
Ringworm infections in the groin area (jock itch) are itchy, red and uncomfortable. Jock itch generally requires antifungal creams or occasionally oral antifungals. At our clinic in Chennai, we can develop a fast-acting treatment plan that targets this on-going sensitive area.
Typically, fungal infections of the nails are treated with oral antifungal drugs and topical treatments. In cases of severe nail fungus, other treatment options include laser therapy or nail removal. Sky Skin Clinic offers a complete treatment plan to resolve your fungal nail infection and restore your nails to their full health and help to prevent future fungal nail infections.
Fungal infections on the hair (scalp ringworm), do have similar treatment options. These treatments frequently consist of antifungal shampoos and/or oral systemic antifungal medications. Ringworm is more likely to occur in children but adults also have fungal infections of the scalp. It is very important to diagnose this infection as soon as possible and patients should consistently take their prescribed antifungal medications given the potential for hair loss or permanent scarring if untreated.
Sometimes, mild cases of ringworm may improve just a little, but the best course of action is to treat ringworm on your skin in order to completely clear the infection and prevent it from spreading to other people or parts of the body. We caution patients from avoiding treatment! While untreated infections could become more aggressive or be passed along to others.
To try and prevent more from developing, make sure to keep skin dry, don’t share towels, gyms clothes etc… and be sure to complete your medication. Doctors will provide you with the best post treatment skincare and hygiene practices as well.
When treated properly, and followed up with antifungal medication timely, the majority of the ringworm begins to medically improve within 1 to 2 weeks of treatment. Depending on the severity of infection and reconstruction time after infection; full resolution of ringworm, can vary, but has been reported by, 2 to 4 weeks.
