Use skineal and take fluconazole tabs it will clear sharp sharp. Nixoderm will work but not as fast.

Visit the hospital. Consult a dermatologist.

If it's shingles, you will need an original movate tube cream after treatment.

Stay healthy

Itraconazole capsules.

Take 200mg 3 times for first 3 days and once daily for 3 months

Topical alone won't work so dont waste your time. Take the capsules after a full meal and for best effect with an acidic drink like coke.

Ask any qualified doctor for the appropriate line of action- that test must follow just to be sure. If not if the disease dey, it should be treated for the best outcome
Besides everyone should know their status in 2025 and HIV is never an can never be a death sen

My friend, get ewe asunrun ęgba, squeeze it till water comes out, then rub the leaf with water on the affected place vigorously until it clear up the surface of the infection. Then squeeze the water from the leaf again even if it requires using more leafs. Apply more of the water from the squeezed leaf to the wound and leave to dry up. You can do this for 2 to 3 times different days and then leave it to heal.

Uncleanness is the cause of this.

Hmmm.. mine lasted for 2 years at my leg, I use all sorts of dermal cream until I met SKINNEAL. but my submission is that we all react to drug differently. What cured mine may not cure yours. But try it

No not that one
That one is a white crystalline stuff. It is not potash alum which is a sandy stone substance that is someone Ash in color

Ask any woman around to show you that don't like thing they use in cooking beans to soften it up fast

The native name is.. akawu in Igbo and kawi in Yoruba I think

My dad always called it potash alum in English


If you scrape open ringworm and apply that thing directly to it... it will be like fire in the skin

You deserve the potash either in water or palm oil

This looks like fungi infection. Use ketonidazole. The pharmacist will tell you how it will be taken. It's around 1k for one pack. That should do it. To be on the safest side, it's advisable to take another dose after one week of completing the first dose. That will take care of the new hatchings from the eggs layed

Go and find a dermatologist, they are trained to fix such problems without any hassle. Stop coming to nairaland for silly opinions.

Re: Help! How To Get Rid Of This? by gladdensir(m): 5:32pm On Jun 30, 2025
The bluish/purplish color might be due to an ointment or cream that was applied, possibly one with gentian violet or something similar.


---

✅ Treatment Plan

1. Antifungal Cream (first choice)

Apply one of the following 2–3 times a day on clean, dry skin:

Clotrimazole 1% cream

Ketoconazole 2% cream

Terbinafine cream


Apply slightly beyond the edges of the patch to prevent spread.

2. Oral Antifungals (for large or resistant cases)

If the patch is very large, spreading, or not improving in 1–2 weeks:

Griseofulvin or Terbinafine tablets (available at pharmacies; must be taken with guidance from a health worker)


3. Keep Area Dry & Clean

Wash the area with mild soap and water, then dry completely before applying any cream.

Avoid sharing towels or clothes with others.

Wash clothes and bedsheets regularly in hot water if possible.



---

⚠️ Avoid These

Don’t use creams with steroids (like Betamethasone or Funbact-A) unless advised. They can worsen fungal infections.

Don’t scratch — it spreads the infection.



---

📍 When to See a Health Worker

If the infection spreads rapidly

If there’s pain, pus, or fever

If no improvement after 1–2 weeks of proper treatment

That's how my mom of blessed memory cured mine way back, during my primary school days cool. Very cheap but effective..
