Did OTC anti-fungal creams (such as Lotrimin) not work, either?

I’ve never met anyone who said those work for them. I’m guessing if you catch it super early and are super conscientious they might work but for a lot of us they just don’t put a dent in the infection.

It usually takes a week to see improvement. I’ve used it before (along with antifungal powder) to treat a navel yeast infection, and it worked. Got rid of it after 3 weeks of constant use.

Sorry I thought you meant for toes specifically. Yeah topical seems fine for small ringworm elsewhere etc
