A female patient of 20 years presented in outpatient department of National Institute of Unani Medicine with complaints of itching and gradually expanding painful lesion over left forearm. She was diagnosed as a case of Qooba (Dermatophyte infections). We observed the clearance effects of Unani medicaments in the duration of four weeks without any adverse effects. Hence, it is suggested that Unani medicaments can be a suitable alternative for management of Qooba (Dermatophyte infections).
