How do you get rid of ringworm?
You can try rubbing the juice from a green hull of a walnut on it. It will stain the skin, but has worked for me. The hulls have a substance called juglone in them that is said to be an antimicrobial and antifungal agent, which would explain why it works on Ringworm, which is caused by a fungus, not a worm. Black Walnut can provoke allergic reactions in some people, so use it with caution.The best thing to do is go to your doctor and get it checked out. Your doctor will gve you some kind of medicine or tell you what you can do. Ringworm is contagous, so you should do something so you don't infect someone else or have it spread.If you can't go to the doctor, there are over-the-counter medicines that you can buy. The cause of Ringworm is a fungus, not a worm, just as the cause of Athlete's Foot is a fungus. The same medicine can be used on both.It can't be stressed enough that Ringworm is contagious, VERY contagious. It is also VERY hard to cure. If you use over-the-counter medicines, use them according to the directions and don't miss a treatment! Wash your hands with warm, soapy water after treating, and never, never touch the Ringworm affected area and then touch another part of your own or someone else's body or the body of a pet. Also, before you stop treatment, make sure the Ringworm is totally gone. If you try an over-the-counter medicine and the Ringworm does not respond or gets worse, go to the doctor. The medicine that he or she can give you is probably a greater potency and will have a much better affect than the over-the-counter medicines.I think you mean ring worm!

Others respond to such topical antifungal medications as naftifine (Caldesene Medicated Powder) or tinactin (Desenex) or to griseofulvin (Fulvicin), which is taken by mouth. Medications should be continued for two weeks after lesions disappear.A person with body ringworm should wear loose clothing and check daily for raw, open sores. Wet dressings applied to moist sores two or three times a day can lessen inflammation and loosen scales. The doctor may suggest placing special pads between folds of infected skin, and anything the person has touched or worn should be sterilized in boiling water.Infected nails should be cut short and straight and carefully cleared of dead cells with an emery board.Alternative TreatmentsThe fungal infection ringworm can be treated with homeopathic remedies.

Why would you have raised skin on your inner thigh in the form of a circle and it itches?
Sounds to me like you have ring worm! Ringworm is a contagious fungus infection that can affect the scalp, the body (particularly the groin), the feet, and the nails. Despite its name, it has nothing to do with worms. The name comes from the characteristic red ring that can appear on an infected person's skin. Ringworm is also called Tinea. Ringworm is caused by several different fungus organisms that all belong to a group called "Dermatophytes." A health-care provider can diagnose Ringworm by examining the site of infection with special tests. Ringworm is spread by either direct or indirect contact. People can get Ringworm by direct skin-to-skin contact with an infected person or pet. People can also get Ringworm indirectly by contact with objects or surfaces that an infected person or pet has touched, such as hats, combs, brushes, bed linens, stuffed animals, telephones, gym mats, and shower stalls. In rare cases Ringworm can be spread by contact with soil. Ringworm of the scalp usually begins as a small pimple that becomes larger, leaving scaly patches of temporary baldness. Infected hairs become brittle and break off easily. Yellowish crusty areas sometimes develop. Ringworm of the body shows up as a flat, round patch anywhere on the skin except for the scalp and feet. The groin is a common area of infection (groin Ringworm). As the rash gradually expands, its center clears to produce a ring. More than one patch might appear, and the patches can overlap. The area is sometimes itchy. Ringworm of the foot is also called athlete's foot. It appears as a scaling or cracking of the skin, especially between the toes. Ringworm of the nails causes the affected nails to become thicker, discolored, and brittle, or to become chalky and disintegrate. Ringworm can be treated with fungus-killing medicine. The medicine can be in taken in tablet or liquid form by mouth or as a cream applied directly to the affected area. Infected persons should follow these steps to keep the infection from spreading: Complete treatment as instructed, even after symptoms disappear. Do not share towels, hats, clothing, or other personal items with others. Minimize close contact with others until treated. Make sure the person or animal that was the source of infection gets treated. Sounds like a rash.
