Have you ever had ringworm?!


Question: Have you ever had ringworm!?
My family and I had some visitors earlier this summer!. I had just gotten over a respiratory infection given to me from my husband and was peeling from a sunburn!. The visitors had 5 children and I noticed that they had some spots oin their skin and the mother gave some eczema excuse!. They were on medication too!. She was not honest and they gave me the fungus--I did all of their laundry when they were here those five days and then spent a day cleaning after they left!. The day they left, a thursday, I started getting spots on my neck and the next Monday I saw the Dr!.!. For a month now I have been taking oral medications and prescribed topical cream!. It has spread and I am tired of laundering my bedding daily and being cooped up in my house from fear of spreading it to others!. Luckily my family has not gotten it!. (knock on wood) How did you get rid of it!? I am desperate for good ideas!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I had it too and I got it from working with the animals when I was a vet tech!. Just so that you know!.!.!. ringworm is a fungus in the same family as most foot fungus!. I used foot fungus cream and it went away!. Now, if you do not touch or scratch it!.!.!. it does not spread on its own!.!.!. kind of like poison ivy it gets spread from place to place because it is being moved there through clothing, scratching etc!. Just keep up with the dr!. orders and you should do just fine!.!.!. mine took about a month to competely go away (and at the same time I continue to treat the sick animals at work)!. If you think you may be scratching while you are sleeping not realizing it!.!.!. try to wear some gloves or sleep with your hands under your pillows!. Good luck!.!.!. it is quite normal for people to get this!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
