Top 10 Ringworm Treatments

Garlic

Garlic is loaded with many antifungal and antibacterial components like allicin, which can bring many medicinal effects. Many studies have proved that garlic gel or oil is effective in treating different ringworm infections like athlete’s foot or jock itch. Just rub it on the rash 3 to 5 times per day in 1 week to alleviate the symptom. You can purchase garlic oil in health stores or make it at home by pulverizing or crushing fresh cloves. A minor drawback is a strong odor and possible irritation on sensitive skin. [3]
