Corticosteroids with squamus thikenning- invading the Head and palms. I have tried many drugs, some clear it off but it returns as soon as I stop taking the drug. One Dr. said it was a strain of eczema in it 4th phase and prescribed Diprosallic pomade for me- it seemed to be quit effective and cleared it all but bearly a month after treatment it reappeared.
I do not know what else to take or to apply.

Dermatophyte Infections
(Ringworm)

Most skin infections respond very well to topical antifungal preparations, such as the imidazoles (miconazole, clotrimazole, econazole, ketoconazole), ciclopirox, naftifine, or terbinafine. Resistant cases or those with widespread involvement require systemic therapy.

Newer systemic drugs include itraconazole and fluconazole, oral triazoles, and terbinafine, a second-generation allylamine. These drugs appear to be safer and more effective than ketoconazole (see also General Therapeutic Principles in Ch. 158), a broad-spectrum oral imidazole derivative that is effective for dermatophyte infections, although occasional liver toxicity (severe or even fatal) limits its use. Itraconazole interacts with many commonly prescribed drugs. Terbinafine delays gastric emptying, and GI side effects occur in 3 to 5% of patients. Disturbances of taste occur less frequently, and hematologic and hepatic side effects are rare. However, liver function should be evaluated at baseline and periodically thereafter. The new antifungals are more effective than griseofulvin in all dermatophytoses, except possibly tinea capitis.

Until recently, griseofulvin was the most widely used systemic antifungal

The vet told me to take an "antifungal and an antibiotic". My doctor has only given me the antifungal and I have been fighting ringworm (from my sister's cat) for about a year now! Just as they are "almost" gone, they re- appear. This time, I have a sinus infection too so I have antibiotics with it so now they appear to be going, finally! I will try the Stress-tabs, thank you. I have also been taking Zinc and it seems to help.

Miconazole seems to be really effective. It is available as an OTC topical cream (Miconazole 2% in a cream base).

Apply twice / thrice in a day. You should see results in 4-5 days.

Also, supplement your diet with a good multivitamin & micro-nutrient tablet.

Fast Ringworm Cure?

Are you completely sure it's ringworm? If it keeps coming back, it means you keep getting reinfected - try scrubbing everything in your home with bleach and disinfectant, washing your furniture, clean EVERYTHING!
Also, if you waited a while before getting treatment, be aware that the marks might not go away.

Once I had ringworms covering my whole body. I went to the doctor several times, took all kinds of medicine. One day someone told me I have a good vitamin, do you want some. I took them once a day for a week and all the ringworms disappeared and have never come back. The vitamin was Stress-Tabs.

Eczema patients can avoid scratchy fibers for softer ones like bamboo, cotton, or silk, which are gentler on the skin. Opting to buy organic fibers can also be a wise, healthy, and eco-friendly alternative. Learn here https://tr.im/7XsVB
