Ringworm is, in fact, not a worm.  It's a fungus.  People in days past mistook the shape of the infection for a worms burrow under the skin and the name stuck.\n\nHookworm is the parasite famous for digging a microscopic hole through the skin of the feet.  There are certainly others.\n\nMosquitoes also bore holes in the feet of course...

Ringworm is contagious- usually you get it from direct contact (you would have had to touch her skin where the ringworm is), but sometimes from sharing clothing.  The only symptom is the rash itself- if you notice it on your body, start treating it right away- don't worry, it will go away!!!

might not be dermatitis.  my sister was treating what she thought was dermatitis, and it was actually ringworm.  have you been diagnosed by your doctor with dermatitis?  might want to see him.  he can get you better medications.

If you've tried Blue Star Ointment or other creams that are similar without the ringworm getting any better, I would contact my Dr.  Good luck....ringworm is no fun!

A strange combination of attributes, maybe a medicinal dye? I found one such through Google: rubia tinctorum also called madder. See the ref.

Spoon full of vinigar. It sounds wierd and ikky but it will balance out the acid in your tummy. The problem with acid reducers is that they take to much acid out of the tummy and the tummy freaks making more.

Most of them have given very good answers. The real problem is only one of the treatment may work out for you! Dont worry - I have had 3 friends who had very severe psoriasis. Each one of them had different treatments. Allopathy, Homeopathy & Ayurveda. All of them are cured. Allopathic cure was fast but not permanent - even though there wasnt any real comeback it had certain side effects. I feel that Homeopathy & Ayurvedha are much better without any side-effects. The main problem it is usually not very fast. It can take 6 months to one year for complete cure. You have to be patient & there are strict diet restrictions - like no meat, eggs, milk, alcohol, smoking ... the list is not small! But be sure to see a famous doctor - there are lot of quacks available. I know how you feel - dont worry there is treatment for it - You will be fine - wish you all the best!

You may have had rigworm somewhere else on your body and and touched your scalp or someone who had it touched your scalp. Ringworm is highly contagious. You must be sure to wash and disinfect everything that may have come in contact with you and control the area. Do not itch or touch it, if you do make sure you wash your hands immediatley.

this sounds like it could be whats called a ring worm , no it is not actually a worm ! its is a type of fungus however that is highly contagiouse ,you sould take your baby to the doctor because this well only grow bigger and if the area is in the scalp your child will require a special shampoo , if the spot is on some other area of the body you can purchase antifungal shaves that well help to heal the area , but it is safest to check with you doctor to first be sure that it is ring worm , and second to know if its safe to use an over the counter med . on your baby .   these are very common among children ! if you child is in day care its very posiable that this is where this could have came from , also you can contract them from your pets , and in rare cases dirt.  i hope i helped you and your little one !
