Brief Summary   Tinea /ringworm infection is caused by a distinct class of fungi, the dermatophytes. They thrive in the keratin layer of the epidermis, nails and hair. Trichophyton, Microsporum, and Epidermophyton, and affecting 20–25% of the world population with varying geographic distribution. There are several unani formulations are being used in the management of this disease but most of them are lack of evidence based clinical trials, Hence, the present study is entitled to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Unani Formulation in the management of QÅ«bā.
