So I don't know if it's ringworm or a yest infection I try antifungal cream but it's way too painful and usually comes back anyway with no change. Taking showers does help and yeah if I hadn't taken a shower in so long it really will become red and itch even more. And if it's active the antifungal cream hurts so it's difficult to put on. I am thinking of trying antifungal tablets so it doesn't hurt. Does this sound good?
Talk to your Dr again. Antifungal tablets have a not insignificant chance of messing with your liver, ie permanent damage so you should avoid them if you can.
