Although a lot of people have never heard of ringworm, it is more common than you may think. It can affect animals as well as people and is highly contagious.

The most common form of treatment for ringworm is a topical anti-fungal cream or ointment. There are several good brands you can purchase at any drug store or pharmacy. You can also get your doctor to give you a prescription, but this is not usually necessary.

Ringworm can infect areas such as your scalp, feet, finger and toe nails as well as your skin anywhere on your body. Organisms that are called dermatophytes are the cause of ringworm.

On the scalp it can cause your hair to fall out and on your nails it can turn them hard, thick and discolored.
