Abstract: Tinea corporis is a fungal disease affects any part of our body or face. It is commonly called Ringworm due to its round or oval shape in most cases & the nature of spreading which is peripherally. It causes mild to moderate discomfort through itching & burning. It is contagious & very common problem in warm climatic conditions. Conventionally it is treated by antifungal ointments applied externally for 2 to 4 weeks. But several cases seen episodes of recurrence within 6 months & then they have to undergo same treatment, but sometime higher dose is needed, in obstinate cases oral antifungals are also given. But these oral antifungals have several side effects from allergic reactions to internal bleeding. Here we have treated a tinea corporis case of a 21yr male student successfully through individualised homoeopathic treatment & observed 10 months for recurrence. After successful treatment within 10 months tinea never reappeared.
