Answers:
Yes Ringworm can spread topically!. More than likely you rubbed against a contaminated person/animal!. If you have a medical plan that covers presciption drugs go see a doctor, if not you will pay about $11 at the drugstore!. It can be treated with over the counter ointments such as Tinactin or Lotrimin!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
