First of all, how do you know you have it for sure?   If you DO have it, you need to speak to your doctor because it is contageous and needs treatment.\n\nScaly, ring-shaped, pink patches on the skin or scalp may indicate ringworm , a contagious fungal infection.\n\nTreatment:\n\nRingworm can be treated with fungus-killing medicine. The medicine can be in taken in tablet or liquid form by mouth or as a cream applied directly to the affected area.\n\nMore on Ringworm:\n\nhttp://journals.aol.com/patoco2/FungusInfections/entries/785

There are no medical references to this treatment.\nUsualy the condition is treated with antibiotics, though there has been some success with herbal remedies.\nIf you are determined to avoid expert medical treatment I suggest you ask your doctor to refer you to a qualified medical herbal practitioner.

I agree with the others--go to the doctor.  I work in natural medicine but I'd never suggest trying to treat worms herbally.  Herbal remedies take too long, are too unreliable and can be dangerous.  In my opinion, your physician is your best bet.

Take a nice long hot bath. Soak your hand in the water. Skin shrivels when it's soaking in hot water. The soaking alone should help it come off easily. In case it still hangs up on the knuckle a little liquid soap will allow it to slide off the rest of the way.\n\nIf that doesn't work, visit your doctor to have the ring cut off. You can get it repaired and re-sized at a jeweler later.

I am not a doctor but I do read and do self study. I am glad to see that you are looking at natural means to help CURE your condition and not just blindly following the advice of "the chemical" medication doctors. First, let me say that you can cure your conditions all together, even though I know that you have been told otherwise. Buy a book called, "The Cure For All Diseases," by Dr. Hulda R. Clark, Ph.D., N.D. (See the links below.) And, get yourself a Zapper or a Parazapper that Dr. Clark invented, and use it on a regular basis !!! There are only two causes of diseases, Toxins and Parasites, and you can learn what is causing your conditions and kill off the parasites and learn to avoid (and cleanse out of you, also) the toxins. I also, regularly use an herbal product called Swedish Bitters, which has been around for at least 400 years or more. It is simply a combination of different herbs and is very bitter, but very effective as well. It can be used on the eyes (with clean cotton balls) and it helps to kill off parasites that can cause us to get sick as well. (Dr. Clark recommends others in her books, but she acknowledges that there are possibly many different herbs and combinations thereof that can help to remove toxins and parasites from the body.) Godspeed to you in finding out what is causing, and curing, your conditions.

you need to wash immediately with soap and water after exposure, other than that, there's nothing else you can do. Ringworm usually shows up in about 7-10 days after exposure (i believe) I'm a vet tech and I work with infected animals, I've never gotten ringworm from one, and I wash my hands and arms immediately after i've touched the animal.

Please don't try home remedies. My friends went to the doctor, was prescribed a cream, and it cleared her arm up in a couple of days. To get rid of ringworm permanently, please seek professional medical advice

First go to your local sporting goods store, and get yourself some 4 inch and some 6 inch YUM dinger "worms".  And some YUM 7 inch ribbontail worms.  Also get a pack or 2 of Gamakatsu #2 worm hooks.  Rig both of these worms Texas style with out any wieght.  Cast near the edge of grass beds, where bass like to ambush thier prey from.  Also try flipping the worms near the shady side of underwater trees and rocks.  Keep your line taut by casting, and then raising your rod tip to get rid of the slack.  Do not reel in the line to pick up slack, because most hits will happen moments after the worm splashes into the water.  If it doesn't get an immediate strike, let the bait sink to the bottom, and then give the worm a few little tugs, as to jump the worm up about a foot off the bottom, then let it sink back to the bottom, then as it sinks again, keep your line taut, and do 1 or 2 cranks om the reel to pick up a little slack.  99% of hits will happen as the worms are falling down/ or sinking, so keeping the line taut will help you feel the hits. Bass usually don't eat worms off of the bottom.  You must also keep an eye on your line, because sometimes you won't feell the hit and your line may go to one side or the other and you'll know a bass has your bait.  When you hook a bass, be sure to reel him away from the cover, because that is right where the bass will go, and you have to be quick, or you will lose him.  After you get the bass away from the cover, let the fish wear itself out.  Then reel him in and carefully lip the bass.  DO NOT touch any part of the bass except the lip, unless you plan to eat them.  Fish have a protective enzyme that protects them from bacteria.  The slime is eaten away and removed, when you touch the bass, because of the amino acids on your skin.  Touching the bass removes this protective layer and opens the bass to bacterial and fungal infections which will kill the fish. Last night, I fished a heavily pressured lake and caught 9 bass in 3 hours. 8 largemouth and 1 smallmouth all with the YUM dinger.  On memorial day I fished a small farm pond and using the YUM ribbontail, I caught 16 largemouth in 4 hours.  It is all about presentation, so go to the site that the others have listed, the best is bass resource, which I put a link up for, and research how to best fish these worms.  I gave you my favorite and most productive methods.  Have fun and remember, tight lines.

Ringworm is a contagious fungus infection that can affect the scalp, the body, the feet (athlete's foot), or the nails.\n\nPeople can get Ringworm from: 1) direct skin-to-skin contact with an infected person or pet, 2) indirect contact with an object or surface that an infected person or pet has touched, or 3) rarely, by contact with soil. \nRingworm can be treated with fungus-killing medicine. \nTo prevent Ringworm, 1) make sure all infected persons and pets get appropriate treatment, 2) avoid contact with infected persons and pets, 3) do not share personal items, and 4) keep common-use areas clean. \n \n\n What is Ringworm?\n\nRingworm is a contagious fungus infection that can affect the scalp, the body (particularly the groin), the feet, and the nails. Despite its name, it has nothing to do with worms. The name comes from the characteristic red ring that can appear on an infected person's skin. Ringworm is also called Tinea.\n\nAnyone can get Ringworm. Scalp Ringworm often strikes young children; outbreaks have been recognized in schools, day-care centers, and infant nurseries. School athletes are at risk for scalp Ringworm, Ringworm of the body, and foot Ringworm; there have been outbreaks among high school wrestling teams. Children with young pets are at increased risk for Ringworm of the body.\nRingworm can be treated with fungus-killing medicine. The medicine can be taken in tablet or liquid form by mouth or as a cream applied directly to the affected area.\nInfected persons should follow these steps to keep the infection from spreading:\n\nComplete treatment as instructed, even after symptoms disappear. \nDo not share towels, hats, clothing, or other personal items with others. \nMinimize close contact with others until treated. \nMake sure the person or animal that was the source of infection gets treated\n\nGo to your local drug store and see if they offer any over the counter products. If not then go to your doctor for a perscription

Please see the webpages for more details on Pin worm. The main treatment is a single dose of either mebendazole or albendazole (anti-parasitic medication), available over-the-counter and by prescription. More than one household member is likely to be infected, so the entire household is often treated. The single dose treatment is often repeated after 2 weeks, in order to treat eggs that hatched since the original treatment.(This is for complete elimination f pin worm).\nTo control egg infestation, wash hands before meals and after using the toilet, keep fingernails short and clean, wash all bed linen twice weekly, and clean toilet seats daily.\nAvoid scratching the infected area around the anus, because this contaminates the fingers and everything else that is touched afterwards. Keep hands and fingers away from the nose and mouth unless they are freshly washed. Carry out these measures while family members are treated with medication.
