Description: Ring Worm is also termed as Tinea and Ringworm. Tinea is the medical name for a group of related skin infections, including athlete's foot, jock itch, and ringworm. These infections are caused by several types of mold-like fungi called dermatophytes that live on the dead tissues of the skin, hair, and nails. Ring Worm, which isn't a worm at all, can affect not only the skin, but also the nails and scalp. Ringworm of the skin starts as a red, scaly patch or bump. Ringworm tends to be very itchy and uncomfortable. Over time, it may begin to look like a ring or a series of rings with raised, bumpy, scaly borders . This ring pattern gave ringworm its name, but not every person who's infected develops the rings.Often topical anti-fungal like Cannestan or Nizral are used for treating Ring Worm. Acacia robusta Burch extracts are as effective as conventional topical anti-fungal in treating fungal infections.
