Solution

The cure/treatment for Ringworm (a fungal infection) includes the use of antifungal drugs. One commonly used antifungal agent is Griseofulvin, which is highly active against fungi and is used to treat many superficial fungal infections of the skin and body surfaces, such as ringworm.

  • Personal and public hygiene is important for prevention.
  • Avoid using towels, clothes, or combs of infected individuals, as the fungus can spread through these.
  • Treatment usually clears the infection in a few weeks, though it varies depending on the site and severity of infection.
