I assume you son was treated with griseofulvin for the tinea capitis (scalp ringworm)? If so, sure, he may have a haircut.

If you are medicated how long can ringworm stay?

Without medication, they can go away in several months. However, it's best to go to the doctor, or vet if it's your pet, and get medication. With medication, it will take a couple of weeks to go away. It's best to use it for about a month, though, just to be sure that all of them are gone. Make an appointment with your doctor, or vet, as soon as you can.


Is milk good to treat ringworm?

Milk has no effect, whatsoever, on ringworm sores. Ringworm is a fungus infection and requires treatment with an anti-fungal ointment or medicine. Try some of the stronger athlete's foot or 'jock itch' ointments, rubbing them thouroughly into each sore. If that does not do the job for you in a couple of weeks, then GO TO A DOCTOR and get a prescription drug!!! Do NOT scratch the sores, as that will just spread the fungus around. Signed . . . Been there, done that.

What is infusion therapy for colitis?

Infusion therapy is an IV treatment, such as the medication Remicade. I have been on IV therapy for the last 6 months for ulcerative colitis. It is supposed to put UC patients into remission with only a few treatments. There are no side effects from this medication. Treatments are every 8 weeks after the initial few every couple of weeks. It is not a cure, just a medication to reduce symptoms. Best of luck to you!

You are 38 weeks pregnant and been on medication since 16 weeks to prevent premature labor. the medication has now stopped and you are two centimetres dilated what will happen now?

She will probably deliver soon. Good luck to her and God Bless:) Once a pregnancy reaches 37 weeks it is considered at term and things are allowed to progress normally. All other things being equal you will probably go into labour in the next few days and the baby should deliver normally and be healthy.
