WHAT TO DO ABOUT RINGWORMS?!


Question: WHAT TO DO ABOUT RINGWORMS?
I found out that I have ringworms on my face (around my chin and nose). I took ointment for it everyday so far when I am suppose to. School is almost in TWO MORE DAYS AND I DO WANT NOBODY TO SEE MY FACE LIKE THIS ESPECIALLY MY CRUSH. I AM AFRAID NOBODY WOULD WANT TO HANG AROUND ME AND I WOULD GET TEASED BECAUSE I HAVE HAD IT MORE THAN ONCE BEFORE. How can I cover it up? (No rude answers plz)

Answers:

Ringworm is a fungal infection of the skin, sort of like having athletes foot somewhere on the body. Continue with the medications and relax it isn't that big of a deal.

A) RINGWORM IS NOT AND I REPEAT NOT A VIRUS IT IS A FUNGUS. GOOD GRIEF!!!



You defiantly need to stay home until you are all healed..It is very contagious..Do you have cats, dogs or horses?..One of your pets may be the reason you get ringworm repeatedly..Cats are notorious for carrying the ringworm virus..No make up..Let area stay clean and dry..



Ummm... I'd try to convince the doc to give me an excuse for school. Ringworms ARE contagious. Plus, if you put anything on them (i.e. makeup) it might take longer for them to actually heal.
