Ringworm Treatment – DrGreene.com

Dr. Greene, my little sister has a ring worm, whatever that is, on her leg right underneath her buttocks. We took her to the doctors and they said to use Tinactin cream. Does this sound right?? I've never heard of using a cream for ring worms -- friend of mine said they were put on antibiotics -- plus if it's not inconvenient, may I get a little information on what exactly a ring worm is, and how you pick them up??? They said she probably picked one up in the grass at one of our BBQ's, is that possible??? Thank you very much for reading my question, I'm just a very protective and concerned big sister. God Bless! P.S. Thank you very much for having this (Dr.Greene's HouseCalls). I've gone through about what seems like a thousand topics and I've learned a lot, hopefully someday I too will become a pediatrician. (In about 10 years, not too bad eh??) Once again, Thanx a million!!!!!!! Sincerely, Pearl C. - 14 years old - O.C., California
