Ringworm - believe it or not - is a fungal infection, not a parasite. It is the yeast fungus (Candida). To cure, go get an antifungal cream or powder, and apply to the area.
Yeast can also cause ezcema which may cause head bumps.
For basic information on the yeast syndrome, check out the link on the Welcome page of www.hufa.org.

Okay. I don't think you have the right word. 'Glans' is the medical term for the head of the penis. If you have a swollen glans, then that is a serious medical problem and you need to go to the Dr. If you mean GLANDS like under your neck, you can get relief by wrapping your neck alternately in hot towels to ease the congestion. If the glands are in your armpits or groin, you need the Dr.

is there any history of itch or pain i doubt about, don't think it is fungus which progress slowly. most of the time show sign and symptoms of purities, it may be bacterial infection. better to consult dermatologist or write or details.
