What are Antifungal Creams and How Does it Work?

An antifungal cream is a topical medication to treat fungal infections of the body like jock's itch, toenail fungus, athlete’s foot and ringworm. You can buy an antifungal cream at your nearest pharmacist or get it online too. Antifungal treatments are also available as drugs, powders and ointments.

Most antifungal creams work within a few weeks to completely treat the fungus. For example, an antifungal ringworm cream takes only around 2 to 4 weeks to clear up the ringworm by killing the fungus. You can use an antifungal ringworm cream or any other antifungal cream as an emergency treatment without the consultation of a doctor. But in case the infection is not mild and worsens over days, you must immediately consult medical advice. 

How does an Antifungal cream work?

First of all, it depends upon the kind of fungal skin infection that you have. The main purpose of an antifungal ringworm cream is to block the growth of the infection causing agent. It prevents the replication of the fungi and stops the infection from spreading to the other body parts. It works by blocking the component of cell membranes known as ergo sterol. It blocks the DNA synthesis and replication of the fungi, and reduces the infection significantly. 

How to apply an antifungal cream?

• Wash and dry your skin well. Pat it dry to ensure minimum moisture as humidity leads to more fungal activation.
• Use your antifungal cream twice a day to catalyze healing.
• For example, in case of ringworm infection on the arm, wash the infected area well. Use an antifungal ringworm cream and apply two coats. Let the cream dry well.
• In case of a toe nail infection, soak your feet in warm water. Wash them and pat dry completely. Apply two layers of antifungal cream. Do not wear closed footwear and let your skin breathe.
• You should always be consistent with antifungal medications. Without consistent treatment, infections like athlete’s foot and ringworm are bound to recur. 
• Always wash your hands after each application.
