I have ringworm! Help me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?!


Question: I have ringworm! Help me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?
So I have a ring in the back of my head and it is ring worm I know it is a fungus....but I am still freaked out!!! I went to this public swimming pool about 2 weeks ago and I had a fencing class 2 weeks ago and I was wondering which is more likely? Did I get it from the pool or from sharing masks with people.? I also am having a sleepover on Friday so I was wondering what to do!!! Help!!

Answers:

Jon-besides a doctor you dumbb butt!
anywaay.
like i said before, tea tree oil.
then put bandaid over it,
wash yer hands a lot.
try not to touch it, they spread easy.
prob from fencing, bc it only spread through direct contact.
and umm, btw, chlorine kills about everything (:
urrm, i suggest to get yer own mask hehe



more likely from sharing masks because ringworm is only spread through direct contact and from contaminated objects. it is a fungus, so it won't be spread through water and the chlorine most likely killed the fungus bacteria pretty quickly. chlorine is in pools to prevent contamination and to kill bacteria. keep a bandaid over it to prevent from spreading to others, and you should be fine.

i had it on my face before from my cat

Mask, pools have chlorine which kills pretty much everything ringworm included.



You need a medicine or it will spread. DO NOT TOUCH IT. I had over 75 because i kept touching them. They spread so easy and fast.



Go to the doctor. You need a medication to clear that up, if it is indeed ringworm.



Obviously you go to the doctor ;)
