If the cream is not working it will probably mean that the infection is deeper in the skin, so will need Lamisil antifungal tablets, which will have to be taken for a few weeks or even months, depends on how bad it is(im on these for same thing and its now clearing)

Can you use acetone to kill ringworm?

Yes it can be used to kill Ringworm. In a combination with ringworm creams like Lamisil Ultra or similar, rub the acetone on your skin and while it's drying rub the cream on top. The acetone removes fat from substances and will also cause anything mixed with it to soak into the skin. In as little as 5 days you will notice any severe cases shrink and any small cases go back to normal skin; it is recommended you use the acetone & cream trick only while the redness is visible then switch to just the post treatment of ringworm cream. A more effective method is to shower, perform this mix trick then wait. As a nice wrap up, put clear top coat nail polish on, and wear it until your next shower. You will see the ringworm fade a lot faster and it will not spread as fast.

Can vaginal anti fungal cream treat a ringworm?

No. Ringworm is a completely different type of fungi than those you can get vaginally. Ringworm is treated via oral medication. Depending on where the ringworm is, you will need separate medication. Scalp ringworm needs to be treated with a special shampoo and pill called Terbinafine. Skin-based ringworm needs to be treated with a course of Itraconazole medication. Vaginal anti-fungal cream will have no effect on ringworm.
