Yes. Try topical cream which contains clotrimazole and Gentamicin sulfate. You can buy Clotrimazole creams at Walmart. I advice for better alternative treatment, use Lamisil Antifungal cream on any spots twice a day and an extra few days after it disappears.

Ringworm is caused by fungi, called dermatophytes, usually the Trichophyton species. Thus, it is treated with an antifungal medication, whereas gentamicin is an antibiotic that would be used for bacterial infections. Generally ringworm can be successfully treated with a topical over the counter antifungal, such as Lotrimin Ultra (butenafine) or Tinactin (Tolnaftate) or Lamisil (Terbinafine).
